The Metabolic Interface of a Globally Important Plant Disease

Plant pathogens threaten global food security by causing significant crop losses. This project will investigate the chemical interface of plant disease to identify sustainable, effective solutions to managing pathogens. We will use advanced genetic, genomic, and modeling approaches to connect pathogen metabolism with pathogenesis
