Postdoctoral Research Fellow using bioinformatics to investigate plant-pathogenic bacteria. ❤️: 🧗♀️,🏔,🚲,🧬&coding She/Her.
Joined April 2020
I am super excited that our paper (my 1st 1st author paper 🥹) in #pnas is finally out! We found that the #chytrid s Bd & Bsal have 2-speed genomes previously only found in #plant #pathogens.Also exciting: #transposons appear to be shaping their genomes & drive pathogenicity. 1/2.
Our new paper is published in #pnas on the 2-speed genomes of #chytrid pathogens of amphibians (Bd and Bsal). Repetitive sequence inc. transposons appears to be shaping their genomes and driving their pathogenicity @theresa_wacker
