How do the cells of one organism thrive in, on or near those of another? Investigating the biology of the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae to find answers.
Nebraska, USA
Joined February 2010
We have updated our IS-MPMI poster ( https://t.co/BqHtMXUaSN) to feature some ER retention data we had lying around but neglected to include in the first version. This shows recoded Pwl2-HDEL is retained in the ER, confirming it is secreted via the ER, and virulence is restored

Magnaporthe oryzae, the fungus causing rice blast disease, deploys effectors to manipulate host immunity. Apoplastic effectors are secreted conventionally, whereas cytoplasmic effectors are deployed...

Got the opportunity to attend symposium at KSU, celebrating Barbara Valent’s retirement. Inspiring to see brilliant minds advancing Magnaporthe research under one roof. Grateful for this experience. Thanks to my PI, @WilsonLab , for making it possible!

Our new review on endocytosis in filamentous fungi is out! 🧠🧫 Fungi organize endocytosis like no other: AP-2 and clathrin operate in separate regions of the hypha—no apparent colocalization. And that’s just the beginning. 📸 Fig. 1 below 🧵👇 #Mycology #CellBiology #Endocytosis
