Arqus CChSD Webinar #3: “Integration of omics and genome editing technologies for studying necrotrophic and biotrophic fungal infections during fruit ripening”

16th April2024

Type: Arqus Living Labs, Climate Change

Open to: Academics & researchers, Early Post-docs, PhD Students, Students

The Arqus Climate Change and Sustainable Development (CChSD) cluster invites researchers and students to participate in the webinar “Integration of omics and genome editing technologies for studying necrotrophic and biotrophic fungal infections during fruit ripening”, which will take place on Tuesday, 16th April 2024, at 15:00 CEST.

The use of transcriptomics and metabolomics coupled with CRISPR-Cas 9 technology to understand how fruits respond to devastating fungal infections namely those caused by Botrytis cinerea and powdery mildew. These studies identify robust putative candidate genes for fruit crop improvement taking advantage of New Genomic Techniques.

The session, led by Prof. Margarida Fortes from the University of Lisbon, is part of the Blended Intensive Programme on “Plant adaptations to climate changes” that is being organised by the Universities of Granada, Minho, Wroclaw and the Université Catholique de Louvain.
