e1“The genome of two genetically and phenotypically distinct P. cinnamomi isolates collected from avocado orchards in California were sequenced using PacBio and Illumina sequencing”
e4“The more virulent isolate encodes a larger secretome and more RXLR effectors when compared to the less virulent isolate”

Other claims from this paper (7)
- Method / resource The two P. cinnamomi isolates from avocado orchards were assembled de novo to 140–141 Mb genomes
- Method / resource The two P. cinnamomi genome assemblies contain 21,111–21,402 gene models
- Observation Both P. cinnamomi isolates exhibit complex heterozygous genomes fitting the two-speed genome model
- Observation The more virulent P. cinnamomi isolate encodes more RXLR effectors than the less virulent isolate
- Observation P. cinnamomi deploys common gene repertoires in all infected hosts
- Observation P. cinnamomi deploys host-specific gene subsets, especially among effectors
- Mechanism Clonal P. cinnamomi isolates increase phenotypic diversity through polyploidization, gene duplications and a bipartite genome architecture, as other Phytophthora spp. do
