Mitogenome-wide comparison and phylogeny reveal group I intron dynamics and intraspecific diversification within the phytopathogen Corynespora cassiicola

Corynespora cassiicola, the causal agent of an extensive range of plant diseases worldwide, is a momentous fungus with diverse lifestyles and rich in intraspecies variations. In the present study, a total of 56 mitochondrial genomes of C. cassiicola were assembled (except two available online) and a...
