Many filamentous microorganisms, such as fungi and oomycetes, have evolved the ability to colonize plants and cause devastating crop diseases. Coevolutionary conflicts with their hosts have shaped the genomes of these plant pathogens. Over the past 20 years, genomics and genomics-enabled technologies have revealed remarkable diversity in genome size, architecture, and gene regulatory mechanisms. Technical and conceptual advances continue to provide novel insights into evolutionary dynamics, diversification of distinct genomic compartments, and facilitated molecular disease diagnostics. In this review, we discuss how genomics has advanced our understanding of genome organization and plant–pathogen coevolution and provide a perspective on future developments in the field.
