This review highlights the impact that NGS-generated genomes and transcriptomes have had on our understanding of the biology and evolution of these fungi. In less than a decade, 49 genomes representing 31 species in eight genera have been published for the Botryosphaeriaceae. These genomes have been used to show that species in this family are capable of sexual reproduction and that the evolution of their mating strategy is highly dynamic, due to multiple independent transitions from a heterothallic ancestral state to homothallism. Comparative genomics has further revealed an abundance of genes involved in infection and aggressiveness. These include plant cell wall-degrading enzymes and secondary metabolite biosynthetic genes as well as genes related to detoxification and cellular transport. Transcriptomics studies have shown that gene expression is tightly regulated and that there are often significant changes in gene expression occurring between early and late infection and as a response to environmental stress. Furthermore, the genomes of species in the Botryosphaeriaceae do not present genomic architecture compartmentalization based on gene and repeat density. Rather, gene organization patterns are influenced by gene co-expression patterns. NGS data have also made possible the development of molecular markers for some species and these can now also be used for species lacking genomic data. The growth of NGS platforms and their integration with other emerging technologies promises an even deeper understanding of the biology and evolution of the Botryosphaeriaceae and other plant pathogens.

As the genome of most mycotoxigenic species have been sequenced, the gene clusters involved in the biosynthesis of agriculturally important mycotoxins including aflatoxins, fumonisins, ochratoxins, zearalenone and trichothecenes, have been largely identified and characterised, with their roles elucidated by researchers. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the current knowledge of genes involved in the biosynthetic pathways of mycotoxins. In addition, the influence of climatic factors including water, temperature and carbon dioxide on differential mycotoxin gene expressions have been highlighted. Overall, the relationship between the relative expression of key regulatory and structural genes under different environmental conditions is significantly correlated with mycotoxins production. This indicates that mycotoxin gene induction can be used as a reliable indicator or marker to monitor mycotoxin production pre-and-post harvest. Furthermore, current strategies to manage mycotoxin risks still require improvement. Thus, an accurate understanding of the molecular mechanisms of mycotoxin biosynthesis in mycotoxigenic species could help to develop an innovative, robust targeted control strategy.
