Abstract
Dothideomycetes is the largest and most ecologically diverse class of fungi that includes many plant pathogens with high economic impact. Currently 18 genome sequences of Dothideomycetes are available, 14 of which are newly described in this paper and in several companion papers, allowing unprecedented resolution in comparative analyses. These 18 organisms have diverse lifestyles and strategies of plant pathogenesis. Three feed on dead organic matter only, six are necrotrophs (killing the host plant cells), one is a biotroph (forming an association with and thus feeding on the living cells of the host plant cells) and 8 are hemibiotrophs (having an initial biotrophic stage, and killing the host plant at a later stage). These various lifestyles are also reflected in the gene sets present in each group. For example, sets of genes involved in carbohydrate degradation and secondary metabolism are expanded in necrotrophs. Many genes involved in pathogenesis are located near repetitive sequences, which are believed to speed up their evolution. Blocks of genes with conserved gene order were identified. In addition to this we deduce that the mechanism for mesosynteny, a type of genome evolution particular to Dothideomycetes, is by intra-chromosomal inversions.
