Insights into genomic evolution from the chromosomal and mitochondrial genomes of Ustilaginoidea virens

Abstract Ustilaginoidea virens, the causal agent of rice false smut, is an economically important filamentous fungal pathogen. A high-quality reference genome of U. virens promotes understanding of molecular mechanisms underlying its virulence and pathogenicity. Here, we report the first chromosome-...
