Happy to share my first manuscript from my PhD! I’ve been fascinated by the functional diversity of FLS2 and how certain variants can recognize immune-evaded flg22 from important plant pathogens. In this work, we employed various approaches to engineer expanded flg22 perception.

People can get fungal diseases from contact with an infected animal, skin scrapes that are exposed to fungi in dirt or plants, and from breathing fungal spores in the air. Learn about how fungal diseases are a One Health issue. bit.ly/4cvKYKN #FungalWeek24
