Research Area: Genomics of plant pathogenic fungi
We are interested in understanding how new species of pathogens emerge and how they adapt and specialize to new hosts. Our current research project uses the wheat pathogen Mycosphaerella graminicola as a model organism to address questions related to the speciation process of plant pathogenic fungi. The project integrates genomics, molecular biology and bioinformatics to compare closely related pathogens that have specialized onto different hosts
