Gebiet: Pflanzenschutz Phytopathologie Pathogene in der Rhizosphäre - Wurzelexsudate Biologische Kontrolle

Research topics: Our research covers basic and advanced topics in plant pathology. Currently we are researching tomato/fungus interactions in the rhizosphere. The main focus is on signalling events and compounds marking different stages of the establishment of interactions between plants and microorganisms (pathogenic, antagonistic and symbiotic fungi) in the rhizosphere. The understanding of these interactions and their effects on fruit quality is a prerequisite for biocontrol and other applications in practical agriculture. Moreover we address advanced issues, e.g. the performance of soilborne pathogens and pests under different soil treatments in the field.
