My current research focuses on the underlying molecular mechanisms of host resistance of barley to Fusarium head blight (FHB), spot blotch, and other diseases.

🌾 @LadyFusaria et al. found that the combination of real-time PCR and colony-forming unit assays offers potential for improving future screening for #Fusarium head blight resistance in barley: https://t.co/Kt7NwcDkVD @BarleyPathology #plantpathology

Fusarium kistleri, a previously uncharacterized species of the Fusarium disease complex, was identified through DNA sequencing and genomic analysis of Fusarium isolates causing FHB in Ethiopia. https://t.co/TG5YlC20pS

Ag trade deficit is widening, and not in our favor. We need thoughtful and consistent investments in #agresearch to bolster competitiveness.

Big big thanks to @TheGrandFarm for providing a unique project site this year & coming to listen to my students' (occasionally wackadoodle) ideas!

In Fusarium fujikuroi, H2A.Z counteracts gene silencing mediated by H3K27me3! Happy to have contributed to this work @EpigenChromatin, spearheaded by Lena Studt @BOKUvienna, in collaboration w/ Nadia Ponts @INRAE_France and the Food Chemistry @uni_muenster

I just published: Jumping genes and other fungal stories from Asilomar

Fungal geneticists convene biennially in March at this enchanting Pacific Coast retreat. This is what inspired me this year.
