Projects

P01: Molecular mechanisms of niche competition by biotrophic smut fungi.

P02: Did barley-associated fungi evolve core effectors with antimicrobial activity to target barley keystone microbes?

P03: Fungal defence and antimicrobial resistance as drivers of niche adaptation.

P04: The obligate biotrophic powdery mildew fungus - adaptation to the leaf epidermal cell niche by defending against other microbes.

P05: Micro-evolutionary changes in barley pathogen – the role of host microbiota in fungal adaptation.

P06: Mycorrhiza-driven mechanisms shaping the niche of pathogenic plant-interacting fungi.

P07: Regulation of antimicrobial and host-targeting effector proteins in beneficial and pathogenic root-associated fungi.

Z01: Resource development for plant-fungal interactions.
