- Reposted by Evan JohnOur @theccdm.bsky.social preprint on the domain function and interactors of the effector-regulating transcription factor PnPf2 in Parastagonospora nodorum is live! 😁 Led by Shota Morikawa @callumverdonk.bsky.social Collabs 👉 @danielcroll.bsky.social @evan-john.bsky.social
- Reposted by Evan JohnWhere to start, with a statement like this? "Tim Ayres said the cuts were aimed at refocusing … CSIRO towards research priorities, such as critical minerals, iron & steel production in Australia." From some rando down the bus stop, one would brush it off. But this is from our Science Minister 🤯
- Reposted by Evan JohnDo we need to reassess how disease resistance ratings on crops are determined? 🤔 Our @theccdm.bsky.social preprint revealed co-infection of wheat by P. nodorum & P. tritici-repentis breaks down resistance BUT there is a CAVEAT www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
- Reposted by Evan JohnExcited to see the final version of our paper on toxin/antidote genes and accessory chromosomes in Fusarium published! Now with new and improved figures! We think that many #fungal ACs might be maintained not because of benefits to virulence, but because of Spok genes. doi.org/10.1093/gene...
- Reposted by Evan JohnPhD thesis submission time! 📗🔬 🥳🍾Big congrats to @theccdm.bsky.social @ShotaMorikawa69 for putting together a fine thesis on fungal effector regulation! 💪🤯
- 3x Posters from the Djamei lab @effectomics.bsky.social @unibonn.bsky.social Today: Me #123 effector-effector PCD suppression? Tomorrow two top PhD students: Riaz Tabassum #88 early-expressed Ustilago effectors Komal Pervaiz #206 Magnaporthe vs microbes!
- Nice presentation by Balakumaran Chandrasekar on the glycobiology of plant pathogenic fungal cell walls, an area needing more attention! #ISMPMI2025
- @mamoonakhan.bsky.social on the molecular mechanisms of gall formation #MPMI2025
