Adaptation of a Fungal Pathogen to Host Quantitative Resistance

Impact of host quantitative resistance on pathogen evolution is still poorly documented. In our study, we characterized the adaptation of the pathogenic fungus Colletotrichum gloeosporioides, to the quantitative resistance of its host, the water yam (Dioscorea alata). Genetic and pathogenic diversit...
