Research summary

Namrata Jaiswal studies how plants defend themselves against disease-causing microbes, working across crops such as barley, wheat, maize, and tomato. The research examines plant immune receptors, pathogen effector proteins (molecules pathogens use to manipulate their hosts), and genetic regions linked to disease resistance, using approaches like gene expression analysis and gene mapping. Recent work has focused on pathogens including fungi (Zymoseptoria tritici, Phyllachora maydis, powdery mildew), bacteria (Pseudomonas syringae), and viruses (tomato brown rugose fruit virus).
