This project studies how nitric oxide affects fungal pathogens in crop plants, aiming to develop new strategies for disease resistance. It focuses on the molecular mechanisms by which nitric oxide inhibits pathogen growth during plant infections.
Fungal pathogens cause disease in important cereal and horticultural crop plants dramatically reducing yields and quality.
Preventing fungal disease in crop plants would ensure global food security and reduce agricultural inputs with respect to fungicide application.
Following the recognition of microbial attack both plants and animals produce a nitric oxide (NO) burst which is directly antimicrobial.
However, little is known about the molecular mechanisms underlying how NO inhibits pathogen gro…
