研究领域

My research seeks to understand how shifts in energy and nutrient flows between symbiotic organisms influences individuals and ultimately communities My group specialises in the physiology and ecology of host-symbiont interactions, specifically plant-fungal symbioses and plant-parasitic plant symbioses using a combination of metabolomics, isotope tracers and molecular biology to study: 1. Soil biology including carbon and mineral fluxes through mycorrhizal networks in natural and agro-ecosystems. 2. Microorganisms in sustainable agro ecosystems - Harnessing beneficial microbes for crop production (provisioning of nutrients) and crop protection (inducible plant defenses). 3. The physiology and functional ecology of host-parasitic plant interactions.
