The Implanteus graduate school of Avignon University proposes for its fourth year a cycle of scientific conferences, combining face-to-face and distance lectures.
The second conference of the second semester will take place:
Tuesday 5th March at 10 a.m. room B023 Agrosciences
Molecular communication between plants and microbes
Dr. Elodie Vandelle
Department of Biotechnology – University of Verona (Italy)
The lecture will deal with the molecular signals governing plant-pathogen interactions. In particular, it will introduce the elicitor concept as a mechanism for microbe perception and further defense induction by plants as well as plant signal(s) that regulate microbial virulence, with a particular focus on bacterial mechanisms.
