Speakers Information: Peter Dodds, Ph.D., Chief Research Scientist, CSIRO Agriculture and Food
RECORDED AT:
Screening synthesised effector gene libraries to rapidly identify immune-recognised virulence genes in plant pathogens, Twist Webinar 27 Mar 2024
Webinar summary:
Join us for an engaging webinar on "Screening synthesised effector gene libraries to rapidly identify immune-recognised virulence genes in plant pathogens."
Learn how we tackle the challenges of identifying Avirulence (Avr) genes in rust fungi and the implications for breeding durable disease-resistant crops.
Don't miss out on this opportunity to discover cutting-edge techniques and advancements in pathogen surveillance.
Covered in this webinar:
Explore the importance of plant resistance for crop disease mitigation
Discover how the dynamics of plant - pathogen interaction is controlled by disease resistance and avirulence genes
Learn how a high-throughput functional screening approach of a genome-wide library of potential effector genes helped to revealed novel avirulance factors
Gain insight into the utility of Twist Clonal Genes to support such high throughput screens
