Resolution: standard / high Figure 3.
Comparison of cultivar and Escovopsis phylogenies. (a) Cultivar phylogeny as in Figure 1A. (b) Escovopsis phylogeny synthesized from Figure 2. * indicates fungal symbionts from Apterostigma colonies. Clades of Escovopsis corresponding to cultivar clades suggests coevolutionary specialization of the pathogen,
but discordance of the host and pathogen phylogenies as a whole suggests occasional
host-switching by Escovopsis during the evolutionary history of the association.
