Du Toit, Yves; Coles, Donovin William; Mewalal, Ritesh; Christie, Nanette; Naidoo, Sanushka (Frontiers Media, 2020-02-17)Many pests and pathogens threaten Eucalyptus plantations. The study of defense responses in this economically important wood and fiber crop enables the discovery of novel pathways and genes, which may be adopted to improve ...

Christie, Nanette; Tobias, Peri A.; Naidoo, Sanushka; Kulheim, Carsten (Frontiers Research Foundation, 2016-01-12)Eucalyptus grandis is a commercially important hardwood species and is known to be susceptible to a number of pests and pathogens. Determining mechanisms of defense is therefore a research priority. The published genome ...
