A chromosome-scale genome of Colletotrichum cereale reveals a large, dynamic accessory genome within a deeply structured species
It is demonstrated that C. cereale harbors three large accessory chromosomes, among the largest described in Colletotrichum, and that these chromosomes exhibit extensive presence–absence variation among isolates, revealing a highly dynamic accessory genome.
