Academic Researcher: Investigating Fungicide Resistance

Project Overview

This project combines theoretical and experimental approaches to investigate the evolution of fungicide resistance in plant pathogens. The successful candidate will work with a supervisory team comprising mathematical modellers and an experimental biologist to develop mathematical models and experimentally test them.

Key Responsibilities

  1. Develop mathematical models to generate theoretical predictions of resistance evolution
  2. Experimentally test these predictions using competition assays and near-isogenic transformants
  3. Quantify the effects of mutations and their epistatic interactions on fungicide resistance and other fitness parameters

Requirements

  • Honours Degree (or equivalent) with a minimum of 2.1 in Plant Science, Applied Statistics, or other related science subjects
  • Appropriate Masters degree is a plus
