COMPARATIVE TRANSCRIPTOMICS OF GYMNOSPORANGIUM SPP. TELIOSPORES REVEALS A CONSERVED GENETIC PROGRAM AT THIS SPECIFIC STAGE OF THE RUST FUNGAL LIFE CYCLE

Comparative transcriptomics of Gymnosporangium spp. teliospores reveals a conserved genetic program at this specific stage of the rust fungal life cycle

Abstract Background Gymnosporangium spp.are fungal plant pathogens causing rust disease and most of them are known to infect two different host plants (heteroecious) with four spore stages (demicyclic).In the present study, we sequenced the transcriptome of G.japonicum teliospores on its host plant Juniperus chinensis and we performed comparison to
