- Abstract
The article presents a study analyzing whether distinct physiological Albugo candida races genetically isolated and are on the road to speciation and whether suppression of host innate immunity allows cohabitation and growth of races with non-overlapping host ranges. Topics discussed include A. candida host specificity, genome assemblies of A. candida isolates, and mosaic-like structure of A. candida races. It also explains clonal propagation after creation of novel adapted allele repertoires.
