邀请Barbara Baker出席会议

Barbara Baker,professor of University of California, Berkeley,and also the leader of the Baker Lab.Her Lab seeks understanding of the molecular, genetic and biochemical bases of host-microbe interactions, and investigates mechanisms of pathogen-induced host disease and disease resistance.Her lab's goal is to understand the biochemical and molecular bases of plant resistance to pathogen diseases. She especially interested in understanding the mechanism of plant-pathogen recognition and signal transduction leading to the induction of disease resistance responses. Her current projects:Interactions between TMV and the tobacco N gene;The MAPK Pathway in Tobacco Defense Signaling;Study of the Enhanced Disease Susceptibility Gene in Tomato;Structural Analysis of Resistance Gene Clusters in Potato;Gene Expression Profiling of Tomato Responses to TMV Infection;Gene Expression Profiling of Sgt1-silenced N-transgenic Nicotiana Benthamiana;Virus-Induced Gene Silencing in Solanum Species.
