This project investigates the cell wall of oomycetes, which are pathogens causing significant agricultural diseases. By exploring how the cell wall is formed and functions, the research aims to identify new strategies for controlling these diseases, enhancing food security.
The cell wall is a dynamic extracellular compartment protecting the cell, providing rigidity, and playing an essential role in the uptake of molecules and signalling.
In pathogenic organisms, the cell wall is at the forefront of disease, providing contact between the pathogen and host.
Oomycetes are Eukaryotic microbes that superficially resemble fungi, but are genetically dissimilar.
They cause many serious diseases, including potato late blight and the devastating fish disease, Saprolegniosis.…
