地点：国家重点实验室学术报告厅（理科楼A201）

报告人简介:

Brande is a molecular plant pathologist and geneticist. He uses genome complexity reduction and next generation sequencing on structured populations to identify genes restricting the causal agents of wheat stem rust and Septoria tritici blotch, two major fungal diseases of wheat. His long-term aim is to use cloned genes from wild ancestors of wheat to engineer durable resistance to these diseases in cultivated wheat. Brande works in the the John Innes Centre, UK, a centre for research and training in plant and microbial sciences.
