Our @theccdm.bsky.social preprint on the domain function and interactors of the effector-regulating transcription factor PnPf2 in Parastagonospora nodorum is live! 😁 Led by Shota Morikawa @callumverdonk.bsky.social Collabs 👉 @danielcroll.bsky.social @evan-john.bsky.social

Where to start, with a statement like this? "Tim Ayres said the cuts were aimed at refocusing … CSIRO towards research priorities, such as critical minerals, iron & steel production in Australia." From some rando down the bus stop, one would brush it off. But this is from our Science Minister 🤯

Do we need to reassess how disease resistance ratings on crops are determined? 🤔 Our @theccdm.bsky.social preprint revealed co-infection of wheat by P. nodorum & P. tritici-repentis breaks down resistance BUT there is a CAVEAT www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Excited to see the final version of our paper on toxin/antidote genes and accessory chromosomes in Fusarium published! Now with new and improved figures! We think that many #fungal ACs might be maintained not because of benefits to virulence, but because of Spok genes. doi.org/10.1093/gene...

PhD thesis submission time! 📗🔬 🥳🍾Big congrats to @theccdm.bsky.social @ShotaMorikawa69 for putting together a fine thesis on fungal effector regulation! 💪🤯

3x Posters from the Djamei lab @effectomics.bsky.social @unibonn.bsky.social Today: Me #123 effector-effector PCD suppression? Tomorrow two top PhD students: Riaz Tabassum #88 early-expressed Ustilago effectors Komal Pervaiz #206 Magnaporthe vs microbes!

Nice presentation by Balakumaran Chandrasekar on the glycobiology of plant pathogenic fungal cell walls, an area needing more attention! #ISMPMI2025

@mamoonakhan.bsky.social on the molecular mechanisms of gall formation #MPMI2025

I am thrilled to share the latest preprint from our lab! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Huge thanks to everyone involved!

Excited to share our latest preprint 🥳 Historic transposon mobilisation waves create distinct pools of adaptive variants in a major crop pathogen @danielcroll.bsky.social #TESky www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Marie Curie Postdoctoral Fellowships (MSCA) Excited by fungi, genomes, transposons, sustainable agriculture, microbiomes or other topics? Looking for a friendly and interactive lab located in one of the most beautiful towns in Switzerland? 🇨🇭⛰️⛵ Get in touch and please share! pathogen-genomics.org

Petty excited about this work with Alan Moses on power of predicting cis regulatory gene networks www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Come and check out our @theccdm.bsky.social posters on effector regulation (P2.114) and non-host fungal effectors (P2.113) today #ECFG17

From lesions to lessons: 2025 marks the 20th anniversary of filamentous plant pathogen genomics. In our new review, we present lessons we learned over the past 2 decades and discuss the future of plant pathogen genomics. Take a first look! apsjournals.apsnet.org/doi/10.1094/...
