Other claims from this paper (6)
- Observation European strains formed three genetic groups, including an isolated Italian group.
- Observation Italian strains may be a cryptic species.
- Observation Aphanomyces strains differed in virulence on susceptible and partly resistant pea hosts.
- Association Virulence did not correlate with pathogen genetic groups.
- Observation Detoxification gene families expanded significantly in plant-pathogenic Aphanomyces.
- Observation Feruloyl esterase domains were exclusively present in CE1 homologs of plant-pathogenic Aphanomyces.
