Mobile genetic elements accompany the emergence of clonal crop lineages from weed-associated populations of Xanthomonas campestris
Cole R. Sawyer, Zoë E. Dubrow, Sara C. D. Carpenter…·Matthew Tancos
The paper analyzes Xanthomonas campestris strains from weed and crop hosts to show that mobile genetic elements accompany the emergence of clonal crop lineages and are present in diverse weed-associated strains.
