Genome-wide analyses of global Cryphonectria parasitica isolates.

(A) Map of global sampling locations and (B) principal component analysis (PCA) of the 230 sequenced C. parasitica isolates. Colors indicate PCA clusters (CL1–CL4) and are as in (A). (C) SplitsTree …

Figure 1—figure supplement 1
Genome-wide association mapping (GWAS) outcome for the mating type (MAT) locus.

The red line shows the p-value-based threshold to exclude MAT-locus-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for population structure analyses.

Figure 1—figure supplement 2
Distribution of observed single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) filtration quality values.
Demographic models for global Cryphonectria parasitica populations.

Constant, expansion, bottleneck, bottleneck-expansion, and bottlegrowth population models were tested for three clusters (i.e., European/North American CL1, mixed European/Asian CL2, and Asian CL3 …

Figure 3 with 2 supplements
Phylogenetic network structure of the main European/North American subgroup and spatial distribution of S12 across Europe.

(A) The highlighted branches represent the most abundant vegetative compatibility types. Isolates belonging to the S12 outbreak lineage (EU-12; mating type MAT-1, n = 105) are marked with a red …
