This project aims to uncover the molecular mechanisms of plant-pathogen interactions, focusing on how pathogens manipulate host defenses in the nucleus. The research will explore the role of specific proteins in immunity and develop synthetic strategies to enhance plant resistance.
Plant pathogenic microbes cause significant economic damage to global food crop production systems.
Pathogens are specialised microbes that manipulate the host defense circuitry to suppress immunity and promote virulence.
Interestingly, many of the processes that determine immunity or susceptible interactions, take place in the host nucleus.
With the identification of vast repertoires of (nuclear) secreted pathogen proteins (effectors) and host signaling components that extert their functions in…
