1 Introduction Consumer-mediated nutrient dynamics (CND) refers to the spatiotemporal movement of nutrients driven by mobile consumer species, transporting nutrients from areas of feeding to areas of deposition (Allgeier et al. 2017; Doughty et al. 2016). It can result in the transport of nutrients across environmental gradients and geographical boundaries, which might rarely be crossed by passive environmental transport mechanisms.
The fungal wheat pathogen Zymoseptoria tritici possesses a large complement of accessory chromosomes showing presence/absence polymorphism among isolates. These chromosomes encode hundreds of genes; however, their functional role and why the chromosomes have been maintained over long evolutionary times are so far not known. In this study, we addressed the functional relevance of eight accessory chromosomes in reference isolate IPO323.
