“…Similarly to plants, the knowledge of the pathogens genome is very important to monitor global changes that occur during plant-fungal interactions. Several fungal genomes have been now sequenced, being some of them extremely important in terms of yield lost in key crops such as Botrytis cinerea (grape grey mould, and other host species), Fusarium graminearum (cereal head blight), Fusarium verticillioides (corn seed rot), Magnaporthe oryzae (rice blast), Mycosphaerella fijiensis (banana black leaf streak), Septoria tritici (wheat leaf blotch), Puccinia graminis (cereal rust), Phytophthora ramorum (sudden oak death) and Phytophthora sojae (soybean stem/root rot) (Bhadauria et al, 2009). …”
