Abstract
Fungi and oomycetes are the causal agents of many of the most serious diseases of plants. Here we report a detailed
comparative analysis of the genome sequences of thirty-six species of fungi and oomycetes, including seven plant
pathogenic species, that aims to explore the common genetic features associated with plant disease-causing species. The
predicted translational products of each genome have been clustered into groups of potential orthologues using Markov
Chain Clustering and the data integrated into the e-Fungi object-oriented data warehouse (.uk/).
Analysis of the species distribution of members of these clusters has identified proteins that are specific to filamentous
fungal species and a group of proteins found only in plant pathogens. By comparing the gene inventories of filamentous,
ascomycetous phytopathogenic and free-living speci
