It is available now the first annotated genome of a Brazilian Fusarium graminearum strain. Collaboration Emerson Del Ponte and Wheat Pathogenomics mra.asm.org/content/9/19/e…

The R number is a good indicative, but it shouldn’t be solely taken into account. If an icrease in the R happens, it is important to contextualise with the causes unherd.com/2020/05/what-t…

Another great webinar today by Emily Breeze University of Warwick organised by Plantae. Lots of unpublished data presented showing importance of ER in plant defence against pathogens. A new class of ER targeted tail-anchored #effectors was revealed.

This is so sad. 😢

Our PHI-base version 4.9 (May 2020 release) is out! An additional 346 genes described in 228 papers were curated. New database downloads in FASTA/CSV are available.

Excited to share new review paper with Ben Petre, Cécile Lorrain and @SebbyRust on Host-specialized Transcriptomes of Plant-associated Organisms. Check it out: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Our last publication in Fungal Biology. We used a virus-mediated overexpression system to explore the role of RALF fungal protein during F. graminearum infection on wheat. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Do you want to know more about the most recent fungal effectors discoveries? Very nice review from Claire kanja
