A genome-wide association study reveals that epistasis underlies the pathogenicity of Pectobacterium

ABSTRACT Pectobacterium spp. are important bacterial pathogens that cause soft rot symptoms in various crops. However, their mechanism of pathogenicity requires clarity to help control their infections. Here, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) were conducted by integrating genomic data and measu...
