Research Group: Plant Defence Genetics

• Powdery mildew fungal effectors and effector targets
• Membrane trafficking in plant immunity
• Signaling for immunity
• Plant susceptibility for the powdery mildew, incl. the extrahaustorial membrane
• Biopesticides for control of plant diseases
• Genetic resources for research and pre-breeding

• PlantsGoImmune (PGI) - A new paradigm for disease-free crops of tomorrow (Novo Nordisk Foundation): Design disease resistance by making effector-insensitive effector targets
• T-REX – T3SS-Recognition EXploration (Marie Curie Individual Fellowship): Identification of the T3SS-component that is recognised in wheat
• Plant recognition of the bacterial Type-3 Secretion System (T3SS) for activation of immunity (FTP): Identification of the wheat receptor
• Two-to-tango – Durable plant disease resistance will require two mutations (Villum Foundation): Mutate plant genes for disease susceptibility, and since this will activate immune receptors then mutate these as well
