In particular, biological invasions by fungal or fungal-like (i.e. Oomycetes) pathogens have caused many emerging and devastating diseases (Anderson et al., 2004; Desprez-Loustau et al., 2007). Among plant pathogens, striking examples include the introduced diseases that have affected the American chestnut (Castanea dentate), a formerly dominant tree that is now confined to being an understory shrub. The Ink dis- ease caused by the oomycete Phytophthora cinnamomi first caused the demise of most chestnut trees in the southern part of their American distribution (Crandall, 1950). The chestnut blight fun- gus (Cryphonectria parasitica) then eliminated nearly all remain- ing native chestnut trees throughout eastern American forests during the 20th Century (Anagnostakis, 1987). Another example of devastating emerging fungal plant diseases is Dutch elm dis- ease, first caused by Ophiostoma ulmi, which led to the destruc- tion of many American and European elms (Ulmus Americana) (Brasier, 1991). Its sibling species Ophiostoma novo-ulmi, intro- duced in the 1960s and more aggressive than O. ulmi, then elimi- nated most remaining mature elms (Ulmus glabra, Ulmus procera and Ulmus minor) across North America and Europe (Brasier, 1991). Phytophthora cinnamomi is probably the most notorious invasive tree pathogen, known to attack and kill c. 5000 woody plant species in the world, causing highly destructive epidemics at ecosystem and landscape scales world-wide (Zentmyer, 1980; Shearer & Tippet, 1989; Shearer et al., 2004; Cahill et al., 2008). Our primary food production is also at risk as a result of emerging crop diseases caused by fungi or oomycetes (Strange & Scott, 2005), the most dramatic historical example being the Irish Potato Famine caused by Phytophthora infestans on cultivated potato (Solanum tuberosum) 3 at the beginning of the 1840s (Fry, 2008). More recent examples include the blast disease of wheat (Triticum aestivum) 4 that appeared in Brazil in the 1980s and then spread to other South American countries (Urashima et al., 1993), as well as the Ug99 fungal pathotype causing stem rust disease of wheat, first identified in 1998 in Uganda and now threatening North Africa, the Middle East and Asia (Singh et al., 2008).

Introduction

Biological invasions have had dramatic ecological and economicimpacts (Pimentel et al., 2001). In particular, biological invasionsby fungal or fungal-like (i.e. Oomycetes) pathogens have causedmany emerging and devastating diseases (Anderson et al., 2004;Desprez-Loustau et al., 2007). Among plant pathogens, strikingexamples include the introduced diseases that have affected theAmerican chestnut (Castanea dentate), a formerly dominant treethat is now confined to being an understory shrub. The Ink dis-ease caused by the oomycete Phytophthora cinnamomi first causedthe demise of most chestnut trees in the southern part of theirAmerican distribution (Crandall, 1950). The chestnut blight fun-gus (Cryphonectria parasitica) then eliminated nearly all remain-ing native chestnut trees throughout eastern American forestsduring the 20th Century (Anagnostakis, 1987). Another exampleof devastating emerging fungal plant diseases is Dutch elm dis-ease, first caused by Ophiostoma ulmi, which led to the destruc-tion of many American and European elms (Ulmus Americana)(Brasier, 1991). Its sibling species Ophiostoma novo-ulmi, intro-duced in the 1960s and more aggressive than O. ulmi, then elimi-nated most remaining mature elms (Ulmus glabra, Ulmus procera

Phytophthora cinnamomi is probably the most notoriousinvasive tree pathogen, known to attack and kill c. 5000 woodyplant species in the world, causing highly destructive epidemicsat ecosystem and landscape scales world-wide (Zentmyer, 1980;Shearer & Tippet, 1989; Shearer et al., 2004; Cahill et al., 2008).

Our primary food production is also at risk as a result ofemerging crop diseases caused by fungi or oomycetes (Strange &Scott, 2005), the most dramatic historical example being the IrishPotato Famine caused by Phytophthora infestans on cultivatedpotato (Solanum tuberosum)3 at the beginning of the 1840s (Fry,2008).

instance, whether multiple introductions are required for success-ful invasions and whether strong bottlenecks reduce the geneticvariability of pathogens in introduced ranges (Dlugosch &Parker, 2008). In the case of an obligate and specialized patho-gen, where invasion can occur only after introduction of the host,another relevant question is whether the pathogen came from thesame geographic areas as its host, either because they took thesame routes of introduction or because of local adaptation (i.e.when sympatric pathogens perform the best on their local hostscompared with other pathogen populations; Kaltz & Shykoff,1998).

Here, we studied the history of the invasion of the anther smutpathogen of the white campion Silene latifolia in North America.Microbotryum violaceum sensu lato is a species complex of basidio-mycete fungi responsible for the sterilizing and persistent anthersmut disease in many species, mostly in the Caryophyllaceae.Infected plants contain fungal teliospores in place of the pollenand female structures do not mature; female plants in dioeciousspecies also develop spore-bearing anthers. Teliospores are trans-mitted from diseased to healthy plants mostly by insects that nor-mally serve as pollinators. Microbotryum fungi are obligatepathogens. The fungus is not transmitted in the seeds (Baker,1947a,b)5 , nor do the spores appear capable of persisting in theenvironment as the disease is restricted to perennial hosts thatallow for transmission between living plants (Hood et al., 2010).Moreover, the sibling species encompassed in M. violaceum sensulato (Kemler et al., 2006; Le Gac et al., 2007; Denchev et al.,2009) show strong host specificity (de Vienne et al., 2009a) andinter-sterility (de Vienne et al., 2009b). The most widely studiedspecies is Microbotryum lychnidis-dioicae (Denchev et al., 2009)(called MvSl in Le Gac et al. (2007)), parasitizing S. latifolia, andthis is a well-studied plant model in evolutionary biology andecology (Bernasconi et al., 2009). Silene latifolia (syn. S. alba) is adioecious herbaceous perennial with a history of human associa-tion, commonly found in disturbed areas such as roadsides,railroad embankments, cultivated fields, and abandoned lots(Baker, 1948). Microbotryum lychnidis-dioicae has a highly selfingmating system (Delmotte et al., 1999; Giraud et al., 2005,2008a; Vercken et al., 2010), with mostly intratetrad matings(Hood & Antonovics, 2000, 2004). Sex is obligate in the lifecycle of Microbotryum, involving the production of dikaryonsthat are the infectious structures.

Both the plant S. latifolia and its anther smut pathogen havebeen introduced in modern times to North America fromEurope, and the invasion of S. latifolia is now well studied(Wolfe, 2002; Taylor & Keller, 2007; Keller et al., 2009,2012). The plant species arrived in North America from Europein the mid-1800s (Baker, 1947a,b) and has become a mildlyproblematic weed of cultivated fields in southern Canada andthe northern USA (McNeil, 1977). An herbarium study sug-gested that the first introduced plant populations occurred prob-ably in the north-eastern USA, from where plants spreadpredominantly southwards and became common only since the1920s (Antonovics et al., 2003). Introduced populations ofS. latifolia have been shown to originate from Europe, withindependent introductions into eastern and western North

America, and with a rather severe but short-lived genetic bottle-neck (Taylor & Keller, 2007; Keller et al., 2012). Lineages ofS. latifolia from both eastern and western Europe have beenintroduced in both eastern and western North America, offeringopportunities for admixture among previously isolated lineages(Taylor & Keller, 2007; Keller et al., 2012). There are geneti-cally based differences in life-history traits between S. latifoliapopulations from the native European range and the introducedNorth American range, in particular increased susceptibility tonatural enemies in North America (Wolfe et al., 2004).

In contrast to the invasion by S. latifolia, the invasion historyof its associated anther smut pathogen in North America has notbeen studied. The disease introduction is probably very recent, asan herbarium study did not find any diseased S. latifolia in plantcollections from the USA (Antonovics et al., 2003), even thoughdiseased plants are usually represented without much bias in her-baria (Antonovics et al., 2003; Hood et al., 2010). The first pub-lished record, to our knowledge, of the disease on S. latifolia inNorth America describes its occurrence in the central Appala-chian Mountains of Virginia (Alexander & Antonovics, 1988).Sporadic observations have also been made in recent decades inIllinois (E. Garber, pers. comm.), Michigan (J. Antonovics, pers.comm.), Pennsylvania (E. Lyons & A. Jarosz, pers. comm.), andMassachusetts (T. Meagher, pers. comm.). Two specimens inmycological herbaria from the early 1960s place the pathogen onS. latifolia in Bronx and Dutchess counties of New York State (inthe Gray and Kew mycological herbaria, respectively; M. E.Hood, pers. obs. 6). Previous studies on limited numbers of strainsand based on electrophoretic data or internal transcribed spacer(ITS) sequences suggested that North American populations onS. latifolia were genetically more similar to English populationson S. latifolia than to North American populations on otherSilene host species (Antonovics et al., 1996; Freeman et al.,2002), showing that these North American populations origi-nated through an introduction rather than as a host shift from ahost species native to North America. Few sample localities wereincluded in these previous studies, so no comparisons could bemade among European populations to identify the pathogensource(s) more specifically. Also, the possibility of a host shift asthe source of the disease on North American S. latifolia fromanother European host species, particularly Silene dioica, cannotbe excluded. Host shifts indeed occur in Microbotryum betweenclosely related hosts (Antonovics et al., 2002; Lopez-Villavicencioet al., 2005; Refr�egier et al., 2008; Gladieux et al., 2011), and nat-ural and artificial cross-species disease transmission is successfulbetween S. latifolia and S. dioica (Van Putten et al., 2003; deVienne et al., 2009a).

Our aim here was therefore to reconstruct the invasion historyof Microbotryum on S. latifolia by comparing the populationgenetics of North America and European using multilocus micro-satellite genotyping of M. lychnidis-dioicae from S. latifolia andM. silenes-dioicae parasitizing S. dioica (Vercken et al., 2010;Gladieux et al., 2011). Concurrently, the mating system in intro-duced pathogen populations was assessed in comparison to itsnative range, as examples of striking changes in other introducedorganisms include the loss of sexual reproduction in introduced

We thereforeanalyzed North American populations of Microbotryum onS. latifolia in North America, representing good coverage of theextant populations, using genetic data to address the followingspecific questions: What are the European sources from whichthe North American populations originated, in terms of bothspecies and populations? Can we detect footprints of a bottle-neck, and if so how strong was it? Were invasive populationsintroduced from multiple sources? If so, did admixture occur?And/or did hybridization occur with native Microbotryum spe-cies? Has the mating system of the fungus changed comparedwith the populations of origin? How similar are the invasion his-tories of the plant S. latifolia and of its pathogen?

Materials and Methods

Teliospore collection and populations

The individuals of Microbotryum analyzed in this study were col-lected as diploid teliospores from 183 localities on Silene latifolia

7 (n = 773) across Europe and eastern North America (Fig. 1) andstored in silica gel (for a detailed description of the sampling seeSupporting Information Table S1 for North America andVercken et al. (2010) for Europe). DNA extracted from teliosp-ores as described in Giraud (2004) from one flower per diseasedplant was used for genetic analyses. Multiple infections bydifferent genotypes are frequent in the Silene–Microbotryum sys-tem, but teliospores within a single flower originate from a singlediploid individual (Lopez-Villavicencio et al., 2007).

Microsatellite genotyping

Populations from Europe had been genotyped and analyzed in aprevious study (Vercken et al., 2010). For populations fromNorth America, teliospores were genotyped using 11 microsatel-lite markers following the protocol of Giraud (2004) (Table 1).Among the 11 microsatellite loci used, E14, E17 and E18 weredescribed in Bucheli et al. (1998), SL8, SL9, SL12, SL19, SVG5,SVG8 and SVG14 were described in Giraud et al. (2008b), andSL5 was described in Refr�egier et al. (2010).

Data analyses

Descriptive statistics Polymorphism at each locus was quanti-fied using number of alleles (A), allelic richness (Ar), allelic rich-ness private to a specific grouping (pAr), unbiased expectedheterozygosity (He), and fixation index (FIS); the four latter statis-tics control for number of samples. These statistics were calcu-lated using FSTAT 2.9.3.2 (Goudet, 2001) and ADZE (Szpiechet al., 2008). Departures from Hardy–Weinberg expectationswere tested using exact tests implemented in GENEPOP 4.0(Raymond & Rousset, 1995; Rousset, 2008).

Population structure We investigated population structureusing two complementary approaches: principal component anal-yses (PCAs) and Bayesian model-based clustering. PCAs displaygenotypes in a multivariate space described by the principal com-ponent (PC) (Patterson et al., 2006; Jombart et al., 2009).Although the method does not rely on any population geneticmodel, it is useful to represent genetic relationships among indi-viduals (McVean, 2009). By contrast, individual-based Bayesian

clustering algorithms, such as STRUCTURE, partition multilocusgenotypes into clusters based on allele frequency and linkageequilibrium among loci, and estimate the admixture proportionsto each cluster (Pritchard et al., 2000; Falush et al., 2003; Hubiszet al., 2009).

In order to check that the anther smut fungus infectingS. latifolia in North America originated from European strainsalso infecting S. latifolia, and not from another EuropeanMicrobotryum species such as Microbotryum silenes-dioicae infect-ing Silene dioca9 , we conducted PCAs on the European genotypicdata from Vercken et al. (2010), which included bothMicrobotryum lychnidis-dioicae and M. silenes-dioicae, togetherwith the North American samples genotyped for the presentstudy. We then ran PCA on theM. lychnidis-dioicae data set fromEurope and North America to provide a better resolution of thegenetic structure. PCA was conducted on the microsatellite allelefrequencies using the ADEGENET package (Jombart, 2010) in theR environment (R Development Core Team, 2010).

For the clustering analysis, the STRUCTURE 2.3.3 program wasused (Pritchard et al., 2000; Falush et al., 2003; Hubisz et al.,2009) with a haploid setting because Microbotryum is almostcompletely homozygous (Table 1 and 2). Run conditions forSTRUCTURE analyses were as follows: a series of independent runswere conducted with different proposals for the number of clus-ters (K), testing all values from 1 to 10. Each run used 1 000 000iterations after a burn-in of 100 000 iterations, using a modelallowing for admixture and correlated allele frequencies. Toensure convergence of the MCMC10 , we performed 10 indepen-dent replicates for each value of K and checked the consistency ofresults visually and using the procedure implemented in the pro-gram CLUMPP 1.1.1 (Jakobsson & Rosenberg, 2007). We usedCLUMPP 1.1.1 to account for label switching and to identifypotential distinct solutions among the results of independent rep-licate runs for each K. For that purpose, we computed with theGREEDY algorithm a symmetric similarity coefficient indexbetween pairs of runs (100 random input sequences, G′ statistic).

Differences in allelic frequencies between groups were assessed12using exact tests implemented in GENEPOP 4.0 (Raymond &

Rousset, 1995; Rousset, 2008) and quantified using Weir andCockerham’s FST estimator (Weir & Cockerham, 1984). Differ-ences in genetic polymorphism between groups were assessedusing a Wilcoxon signed-rank test. The selfing rate within theNorth American population was estimated using the INSTRUCT

program (Gao et al., 2007) using the same run settings as in Verc-ken et al. (2010) and we compared selfing rates with values previ-ously estimated for European clusters (Vercken et al., 2010).

Results

Population study

North AmericanMicrobotryum strains originate from EuropeanM. lychnidis-dioicae populations The PCA on M. lychnidis-dioicae and M. silenes-dioicae microsatellite data confirms that allstrains collected in North American are related to EuropeanM. lychnidis-dioicae populations on S. latifolia rather than being ahost-shift lineage 13from the pathogen on S. dioica (Fig. S1). Wefocused thus only on material of M. lychnidis-dioicae forsubsequent analyses.

Low genetic diversity in North American populations Thegenetic diversity in North American populations was much lowerthan those observed in Europe (Table 1). Most loci displayed astrong deficit in heterozygosity, clearly departing from Hardy–Weinberg expectations.

Genetic structure The population structure of M. lychnidis-dioicae in Europe was very strong, as described in Vercken et al.(2010); increasing K consistently identified new distinct clustersin STRUCTURE analyses. The main clusters in Europe at K = 3(Fig. 2) were: the Western group (blue at K = 3), which split athigher K values into north Western (NWest) and south Western(SWest) 14clusters (respectively in blue and yellow at K � 4); theItalian cluster (in green); and the Eastern cluster (in red at K = 3),which split at higher Ks into the Balkan and Eastern clusters(respectively in purple and red at K � 5). The American popula-tions remained together with the NWest cluster regardless of thenumber of clusters implemented (see K = 3–7; higher K valuesnot shown). This indicates that American populations are closelyrelated to the populations from northwestern Europe 15, and in par-ticular to the populations from the UK. This was also indicatedby the PCA (Fig. 3a), on which American genotypes clusteredtogether with northwestern European populations; the three first

16PCs accounted for 35% of the total variance.Even with high K values we could not obtain finer resolution

for the origin of the North American populations using the fulldata set (Fig. 2a). However, the clustering analyses on a reduceddata set (n = 149) focusing on American samples and the Euro-pean samples that belonged to the same cluster at K = 7 showedthat all strains from North America clustered with a few strainscollected in Scotland (Fig. 4).

strains found in North America, differing only at one locus, forwhich the North American population had an allele at the mostpolymorphic locus E18 that was not shared by any Europeanpopulation ofM. lychnidis-dioicae19 .

Providing results consistent with the clustering analyses, PCAon genotypes that displayed score values for the first three PCs ofthe global analyses overlapping with the score values of the NorthAmerican samples, these introduced genotypes appeared againclosely related to the Scottish samples20 (Figs 3b, 4, S3).

The level of divergence in allelic frequencies (FST) betweenNorth American populations and the five European clusters iden-tified in Vercken et al. (2010) was significant for all pair-wisecomparisons and ranged between 0.31 and 0.64 (Table 2). Thelowest value was observed between the North American popula-tions and the NWest cluster, in agreement with the close geneticrelationship estimated from the PCA and STRUCTURE analysis.The North American populations displayed a significantly lowerlevel of genetic diversity than the European NWest cluster(Table 3), as estimated either using the allelic richness (Ar) or thegenetic diversity (He) (Wilcoxon signed rank test, P < 0.001 forboth Ar and He statistics). North American populations also hada very low private allelic richness (pAr) compared with the Euro-pean values, meaning that all the alleles found in the NorthAmerican samples were also detected in European populations.The selfing rate within the North American population estimatedusing the INSTRUCT program was high, as expected given theknown mating system in Microbotryum species. The estimated

selfing rate was significantly lower than in European populations(Tables 1, 3), but the difference was small and the variance in FISvalues across loci was large (Table 1).

Discussion

This study confirms that the introduced M. lychnidis-dioicae pop-ulations on S. latifolia in North America originated from anintroduction of European populations of M. lychnidis-dioicaespecialized on S. latifolia, and did not result from a host shift.Yet, among the documented cases of recent disease emergence asa result of introductions of fungal or oomycete pathogens intonew continents, infection of novel hosts (i.e. host-shifts, host-range expansion, or pathogen spillover) is often involved (Parker& Gilbert, 2004; Slippers et al., 2005). Examples include theintroduction of C. parasitica in the USA, the most probablesource of which was Japanese chestnut trees (Castanea crenata)that were imported and planted throughout the country(Milgroom et al., 1996; Anagnostakis, 2001).

The strong genetic structure of M. lychnidis-dioicae in Europeallowed us to determine that Scotland is the most probable sourceof introduction for the North American populations. No foot-print of admixture or hybridization with native Microbotryumspecies was found, which probably relates to the high selfing ratein M. lychnidis-dioicae (> 85%; Hood & Antonovics, 2004;Giraud et al., 2005; Gladieux et al., 2011), as well as to the stronghost specificity and post-zygotic isolation among Microbotryumspecies (de Vienne et al., 2009a,b). The high level of homozygos-ity found in the North American populations also indicated ahigh selfing rate of the introduced populations. The fungus prob-ably has thus kept the same mating system as in its native area.This is in contrast to other fungal or oomycete pathogens that donot undergo sexual reproduction in their introduced ranges, suchas the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae (Saleh et al., 2012),the yellow rust fungus Puccinia striiformis f.sp tritici (Ali et al.,2010; Duan et al., 2010), or the potato late blight oomyceteP. infestans (Day et al., 2004). In the latter case, only one matingtype – A1 – had long been present in the introduced populations

Page 7: Research - Université Paris-Saclaymax2.ese.u-psud.fr/.../Fontaine_New_Phytol_Proofs.pdfThe plant species arrived in North America from Europe in the mid-1800s (Baker, 1947a,b) and

in Europe, preventing the occurrence of sex (Day et al., 2004).The introduction of the A2 mating type from Mexico in the1970s, c. 130 yr after the A1 mating type, caused dramaticchanges in the population structure and aggressiveness of theEuropean P. infestans population as a consequence of23 the result-ing sexual recombination (Goodwin, 1997; Cooke et al., 2012).Similarly, Phytophthora ramorum24 and P. cinnamomi reproduceonly clonally in their world-wide introduced ranges, as only theirrespective A2 mating types occur in their invasive natural popula-tions (Zentmyer, 1980; Old et al., 1984; Arentz & Simpson,1986; Shearer & Tippet, 1989; Gr€unwald et al., 2012). InMicrobotryum, the failure to evolve asexual reproduction is notsurprising, as the formation of a dikaryon by sexual fusion ofhaploid cells is required for plant infection. The lack of change inthe mating system also contrasts to some invasive plants, whichhave evolved higher selfing rates (Amsellem et al., 2001; Bossdorfet al., 2005; Colautti et al., 2010); however, this may not be sur-prising either given the already very high selfing rates ofMicrobotryum in its native range (Vercken et al., 2010).

The introduction of M. lychnidis-dioicae on S. latifolia inNorth America appears to have been more recent, and with amuch stronger bottleneck, than the introduction of the host plantspecies (Taylor & Keller, 2007). Substantially fewer propaguleswere successfully introduced for the fungus than for the plant,and only in a small range on the eastern coast of North America,while several introductions occurred for S. latifolia, and indepen-dently on the west and east coasts (Taylor & Keller, 2007). Evenin the area where M. lychnidis-dioicae is present in North Amer-ica, several European lineages of S. latifolia have been detected,originating from different European regions (Taylor & Keller,2007). Local adaptation is therefore not likely to be involved inthe low number of M. lychnidis-dioicae populations introduced.However, we have not been able to integrate samples of the path-ogen from the northeastern USA where the fungus has also beenobserved in a few places (J. Antonovics, pers. comm.), and thepossibility remains that additional allelic variation may exist inM. lychnidis-dioicae in North America that has not been capturedby the current study. The situation in M. lychnidis-dioicae andS. latifolia thus contrasts with plant pathogens such asMycosphaerella graminicola (Banke & McDonald, 2005;Stukenbrock et al., 2007), Ustilago scitaminea (Raboin et al.,2007), Magnaporthe oryza (Couch et al., 2005a), Venturiainaequalis (Gladieux et al., 2008) and P. infestans (Gomez-Alpizaret al., 2007), which seem to share the same geographic origins as

their respective host plant, that is, wheat, sugarcane (Saccharumofficinarum), rice (Oryza sativa) 25; 26, apple 25; 26and potato, respectively.This does not seem to be the case, however, for the barley (Horde-um vulgare) 27pathogen Rhynchosporium secalis (Brunner et al.,2007; Zaffarano et al., 2008) or for the colza 28pathogenLeptosphaeria maculans (Dilmaghani et al., 2012).

It is quite remarkable that there has been trans-continentalintroduction of the anther smut disease at all, as there is no seedtransmission, dispersal of Microbotryum occurs by insects, andthe fungus appears unable to persist as an environmental contam-inant (Hood et al., 2010). One may speculate that, as probablyoccurred for the seeds of the host, diseased flowers of S. latifoliacould have been transported along with forage materials aboardships, as this plant is common in hay fields. Entry of the patho-gen may have occurred through seedlings germinating among thespores where the forage material was off-cast upon arrival toNorth America. Such a scenario may be consistent with thesource populations of introduced populations being from theUK, as human and commercial exchange are known to be espe-cially frequent between these countries, and especially with theeast coast. The successful invasion by an insect-borne biotrophicfungus shows that even pathogens presenting life history traitsthat are a priori less favorable for invasion (Philibert et al., 2011)can still cause biological invasions. An alternative explanation,that a living, diseased plant was transported from Europe toNorth America, seems particularly unlikely as S. latifolia is ashort-lived perennial, easily propagated by seeds, and not of par-ticular interest among gardeners. However, it should be notedthat such an event is not entirely unprecedented, as the gardenfavorite moss campion, Silene acaulis, appears to have been intro-duced along with its anther smut to Hawaii (Farr et al., 1989),where this extremely long-lived species is more likely to be col-lected and transported as living specimens. Also, the anther smutdisease of Dianthus caryophyllus was introduced by unknownmeans to Massachusetts in 1948, but the disease did not becomeestablished in this nonnative host and was present only in agricul-tural settings 29(Spencer & White, 1951). Another example of apriori unlikely invasion that nevertheless occurred is the case ofthe forest pathogen Heterobasidion annosum introduced to Italyby US troops during World War II (Gonthier et al., 2007).

The low genetic diversity in introduced populations is animportant factor that is expected to limit invasion success.Multiple introductions can increase genetic diversity in intro-duced ranges (Genton et al., 2005), which has been argued to

facilitate biological invasions. Here again, however, theM. lychnidis-dioicae case shows that, with only a few genotypes, apopulation of a fungal plant pathogen can become established ina new geographic range.

Biological invasions of whole continents by one or a fewclonal lineages in fact appear to be frequent in fungal andoomycete pathogens (Goodwin et al., 1994; Couch et al., 2005b;Enjalbert et al., 2005; Raboin et al., 2007; Singh et al., 2008;Fisher et al., 2009; James et al., 2009; Mboup et al., 2009), suchas P. infestans on potato (Goodwin et al., 1994), P. cinnamomion trees (Old et al., 1984; Arentz & Simpson, 1986; Dobrowol-ski et al., 2003), U. scitaminea on sugarcane (Raboin et al.,2007), Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis on amphibians (Jameset al., 2009), Seiridium cardinale on cypress30 (Della Rocca et al.,2011), or Puccinia striiformis on wheat (Mboup et al., 2009).Other invasions nevertheless resulted from introductions of a fewdivergent lineages from distinct sources, such as Plasmoparahalstedii on sunflower31 in France (Delmotte et al., 2008; Ahmedet al., 2012), C. parasitica on chestnut in France (Dutech et al.,2010), the grape (Vitis vinfera)32 powdery mildew fungus Erysiphenecator (Brewer & Milgroom, 2010), the apple scab fungusVenturia inaequalis (Gladieux et al., 2008), or the oilseed rape(Brassica napus)33 pathogen Leptosphaeria maculans (Dilmaghaniet al., 2012). Admixture might then occur between the lineagesand influence their evolutionary dynamics. Little admixture has,however, been found between divergent introduced lineages inC. parasitica (Dutech et al., 2010, 2012) and P. ramorum (Ivorset al., 2006; Mascheretti et al., 2008, 2009), probably because ofthe predominantly asexual mode of reproduction of those patho-gens. By contrast, it has been posited that hybridization betweendistant lineages created the hypervirulent strain in the chytridfungus threatening amphibians world-wide (Farrer et al., 2011)and similarly led to new pathogenic abilities on resistant cultivarsin the downy mildew pathogen of sunflowers (Ahmed et al.,2012).

The most devastating epidemics on plants caused by invasivefungal and oomycete pathogens most often involve novel hostspecies that are closely related to the host in the pathogens’ areaof origin. The present study nevertheless adds to a number ofcases of invasions by pathogenic fungi in plants following theintroduction of its host plant and shows that, even where life-his-tory traits are unfavorable for invasions (Philibert et al., 2011),such invasions may occur. Investigations of the evolution ofintroduced populations are also interesting for the understandingand management of biological invasions. The elucidation of theorigin of introduced M. lychnidis-dioicae populations onS. latifolia in North America will make it possible to performmore directed cross-inoculations to investigate coevolution withthe North American plant genotypes, and whether there has beenlocal adaptation, as shown in European S. latifolia for resistanceagainst M. lychnidis-dioicae (Kaltz et al., 1999).
