Our @theccdm.bsky.social postdoc @callumverdonk.bsky.social came up with the goods @cbsmwa.bsky.social!!! Congrats on the New Investigator Award! 🏆💪 #CBSMWA #CBSMWA2025

Big thank you to @cbsmwa.bsky.social for letting me waffle on about my work on Pf2 and it's role in effector regulation! #effectors #CBSMWA #CBSM @theccdm.bsky.social @karchuntan.bsky.social

📢💥Team work pays off!!! Looks @theccdm.bsky.social lads found a new epistasis-regulated (probable) necrotrophic effector from Stago nodorum @callumverdonk.bsky.social @ShotaMorikawa69

1,2,3...The @theccdm.bsky.social lads teamed up for an effector bioassay experiment 😁 @callumverdonk.bsky.social

🧠 Can AI help us understand how fungal pathogens infect plants? A new review says yes. AI tools show promise in modelling effector–plant protein interactions to fight crop disease🌾 📖 doi.org/10.1016/j.cs... #GRDC #CurtinUni @callumverdonk.bsky.social @kgagalova.bsky.social @mcderbyshire.bsky.social

Our @theccdm.bsky.social @callumverdonk.bsky.social talks about effector regulation in Parastagonospora nodorum in @inrae-france.bsky.social hosted by @ifudal.bsky.social

What an absolute pleasure to present our work to the EPLM group at INRAe in France. Fantastic research being done by fantastic people!

Today at INRAe! @karchuntan.bsky.social discusses how co-infection by necrotrophic fungi BREAKS DOWN disease resistance in wheat @inrae-france.bsky.social @ifudal.bsky.social @theccdm.bsky.social

Our latest article is part of a feature on UWA's news site (among Charlie's two others - 3x NAR in 3 months!) www.uwa.edu.au/news/article...

Congrats @callumverdonk.bsky.social on your 1st-Author NAR paper doi.org/10.1093/nar/... together with @charliebondxray.bsky.social, characterising RdfS, the multifunctional recombination directionality factor ‘excisionase’ of the symbiosis islands (Integrative & Conjugative Elements).

🤔@ShotaMorikawa @CallumVerdonk found a bunch of non-host effectors from Parastagonospora nodorum using Nbenth 🌱 @theccdm.bsky.social

🚨 Catch @karchuntan.bsky.social at the 17th European Conference on Fungal Genetics #ECFG17 Hear from KC on Tues 4 March, 2pm presenting "Armed with the ‘Red Button’"—exploring how Parastagonospora nodorum activates its effector arsenal to infect wheat 🌾🧬 👉 https://buff.ly/4k5ANRW #GRDC #Curtin

Our @theccdm.bsky.social PhD student Shota Morikawa got a poster on "Compensatory pathogenicity mechanisms in Parastagonospora nodorum lacking major necrotrophic effectors" (P2.113) Session: Plant pathogenic fungi Date/Time: Tuesday/17:30 – 19

Our @theccdm.bsky.social Callum Verdonk will present a poster on "Order from Disorder: a structurally disordered domain of PnPf2 is essential for regulation of virulence factors in a phytopathogenic fungus (P2.114)" #ECFG17 Session: Plant pathogenic fungi Date/Time: Tuesday/17:30 – 19

@jwdebler.bsky.social of @theccdm.bsky.social got a poster (P2.128) on a mysterious genomic 'Loop' today #ECFG17

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