ordered by relevance and dateDr Sukumar Chakraborty: fighting wheat disease (Resume)
Dr Sukumar Chakraborty is interested in understanding epidemiology and population biology of necrotrophic plant pathogens to improve disease management. He is undertaking new research on Fusarium pathogens causing head blight and crown rot in wheat with collaborators around the world.
Christopher McIntosh Associate Professor Agriculture Economics
Production Economics, policy analysis, specification and modeling issues in the analysis of agricultural supply relationships and productivity analysis. Economic analysis of environmental and commodity policy changes on agricultural production systems. Decision making under uncertainty.
Dr Jeff Ellis: unravelling plant diseases (Resume)
Dodds PN, Lawrence GJ, Catanzariti A-M, Ayliffe MA, Ellis JG. 2004. The Melampsora lini AvrL567 genes are expressed in haustoria and their products are recognised inside plant cells. Plant Cell 16: 755-768. Ellis J, Dodds P. 2003. Plant pathology: monitoring a pathogen-targeted host protein.
Dr Peter Dodds: investigating the molecular basis of rust disease resistance (Resume)
Dr Peter Dodds' research aims to elucidate how plants recognise and respond to pathogens with the ultimate aim of protecting important food crops from devastating diseases.
Dr Jonathan Anderson: investigating plant defences (Resume)
He also studies the mechanisms used by the fungal pathogen Rhizoctonia solani and various legume aphids to cause disease and manipulate the hosts’ responses.
Dr Jeff Ellis: unravelling plant diseases (Resume)
This work is done in flax, wheat and Arabidopsis thaliana. It aims to improve understanding of the biological basis of rust resistance and rust disease for improved control of these diseases in crop plants.
