Description

Research in the department of Plant Microbe Interactions engages in fundamental molecular processes underlying interactions between plants and pathogens. The innate immune system of plants and mechanisms of microbial pathogenesis have a central role in our discovery program. We are pursuing an integrated approach bridging traditional research territories like genetics, molecular biology, biochemistry, and cell biology. Much of our work is focused on interactions between plants and fungi, a common class of pathogenic microbes.
