Expertise and Research Interests
|
|
I began my research experience in fungal genetics,
specifically carbon and nitrogen metabolism in Aspergillus nidulans.
After this, I started work at the ACPFG on sodium exclusion in the
diploid wheat Triticum monococcum
and creating mutant TILLING populations in wheat and barley as part of
the stress
responses in adapted cereals program at the Waite Campus.
I am currently in the first year of my PhD at the University of Melbourne on the metabolomics of
wheat and barley in response to a variety of stresses including salt,
frost and drought.
Supervisors: Ute Roessner
and Tony Bacic
