Research Project: USE OF GENE EXPRESSION ANALYSIS TO STUDY PATHOGENICITY IN GIBBERELLA ZEAE

Location: Cereal Disease Laboratory

Project Number: 3640-22000-022-02
Project Type: Specific C/A

Start Date: Sep 03, 2002
End Date: Aug 25, 2005

Objective:
Longterm goals are 1. to understand the genetic basis for inoculum development, mycotoxin production and pathogenicity; 2. to use genomic to develop a biology based control program for scab using the genomics programs of wheat and corn to enhance this program.

Approach:
A two folded approach to establish a scaffold for long term genomics studies as well as gathering functional genomics information will provide the most benefits to scab control both long term and short term.
