Tracking the evolutionary trajectory of a young hybrid plant pathogen
A common mechanism by which emerging plant pathogens gain the ability to infect new hosts is hybridization. Despite its widespread occurrence, the outcomes of hybridization remain largely unpredictabl...

A bit late, but really happy to see my first PhD paper out! We studied trait-elevation relationships in multiple traits spanning growth, size (both above and belowground) and leaf economics to understand whether these align at within- and among-species scales.

Alignment across taxonomic levels in strategies rather than in traits along elevational gradients
Abstract. Trait variation along environmental gradients can indicate the different strategies that organisms have evolved in response to environmental hete

Population genetics of plant fungal threats: Insights from wheat powdery mildew
Population genetics studies of microbial pathogens are demonstrating the potential of evolutionary theory to inform decisions that impact society. This Primer explores a recent study on wheat powdery ...

Genomic Surveillance and Molecular Evolution of Fungicide Resistance in European Populations of Wheat Powdery Mildew
Mutations conferring fungicide resistance to wheat powdery mildew emerged multiple times and are characterised by distinct geographic ranges in Europe and neighbouring regions.
