A Protocol for Preconceptional Screening of Consanguineous Couples Using Whole Exome Sequencing.

Genetic studies performed in consanguineous couples suggest that the reproductive risk that distinguish them from other couples in the general population is related to autosomal recessive (AR) diseases. This risk is scattered among the thousands of known and potential AR diseases. Thus, for effective preconceptional screening of consanguineous couples it is necessary a test that encompasses the largest number of genes possible.

Fungi of the Colletotrichum genus are among the most prominent phytopathogens that cause diseases with a considerable economic impact, such as anthracnose. The hemibiotrophic fungus Colletotrichum lindemuthianum (teleomorph Glomerella cingulata f. sp.
