Intracellular pathogens can form extensive hyphal structures. Here, the pathogen Phytophthora palmivora (magenta) produces invasive hyphae in a living epidermal cell of a Nicotiana root. The plant surrounds the invader by an 'extra-invasive hyphal membrane' (yellow)📸Alex Guyon

Congratulations to Chetan for winning the best poster at Botanicon 2025!

Congrats to Chetan Sainsbury Laboratory Cambridge University (SLCU) for his Best Poster Award. Very proud of you!

Thrilled to share our latest bioRxiv! This work started during my PhD and was finished together with Jogi Madhuprakash. We found a Phytophthora infestans L-shaped effector that bridges a host TOL protein to activated NLRs to suppress immunity! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… 1/15
