EVIDENCE FOR A COMMON TOOLBOX BASED ON NECROTROPHY IN A FUNGAL LINEAGE SPANNING NECROTROPHS, BIOTROPHS, ENDOPHYTES, HOST GENERALISTS AND SPECIALISTS.

Evidence for a common toolbox based on necrotrophy in a fungal lineage spanning necrotrophs, biotrophs, endophytes, host generalists and specialists.

The Sclerotiniaceae (Ascomycotina, Leotiomycetes) is a relatively recently evolved lineage of necrotrophic host generalists, and necrotrophic or biotrophic host specialists, some latent or symptomless.We hypothesized that they inherited a basic toolbox of genes for plant symbiosis from their common ancestor.Maintenance and evolutionary diversificat
