Last week’s #2025ISMPMI and #OMGN2025 were really fun! My first conference visit in the field of plant microbe interactions, so I learned a lot (brain is still achy)! I’m grateful to @dromius.bsky.social for this opportunity and to the rest of the Schornack batch for awesome company!
This is the first time I've attended the meeting. Thank you to the organizers for this incredible opportunity. #OMGN2025 Indeed @dromius.bsky.social #Phytophthora palmivora is so fascinating.
Really cool start of a week of conference yesterday at #OMGN2025. I learned so much about oomycetes and got to present our some of our work studying its interaction with Marchantia. Looking forward a free morning in Cologne and to #2025ISMPMI starting later today!
#OMGN2025 Vivianne Vleeshouwers on potato resistance and Phytophthora diversity- and this slide of her work is part of my lectures - high throughput discovery of resistant germplasm/R gene loci
#OMGN2025 Max Pluis - How does Phytophthora make the cut? - and the role of Phytophthora cell processes such as mechanosensing
#OMGN2025 Patricia Manosalva ̶ Phytophthora cinnamomi populations affecting avocado in the U.S.A.
exhibit large phenotypic variability and potential introductions from Mexico
#OMGN2025 Jeanne Miebach ̶ High throughput image analysis and quantification of aggregation of an
aquatic Blastocladiomycotan fungus on its algal host: Paraphysoderma sedebokerense almost never attacks
Haematococcus spp. alone - check out that lifecycle
#OMGN2025 Wang Zhuoyue - Systematic Optimization of LAMP Assays for Kauri Dieback Diagnostics - because there is a Phytophthora (agathidicida) which kills these iconic trees
#omgn2025 @dariuskos.bsky.social presenting research on a Marchantia transcription factor which controls its reproductive structures and is stress-regulated.

#OMGN2025 Mariana Herrera Corzo also works on 87 isolates of the arguably most interesting plant pathogen.
#OMGN2025 Ina Schlathoelter contributed to saving chocolate by studying how cacao pods respond to its Phytophthora pathogens. Some cocoa varieties/clones are differentially resistant to palmivora GH49 and megakarya GH34.
#OMGN2025 Yingnan Hou Pentatricopeptide repeat Protein Gene derived siRNAs induce Phytophthora gene silencing through trans-species RNAi
#OMGN2025 Chih-Hang Wu shows impressive cell biology of effector triggered hypersensitive response cell death - you can also read more about it here www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
#OMGN2025 @guidopmi.bsky.social talks about NLP proteins, often toxic but in oomycetes there are also non-toxic NLPs
Not to forget #OMGN2025 tomorrow!
Plz RP.
The Oomycete Molecular Genetics Network (OMGN) Meeting 2025 is now open for registration!
Join us in Cologne to discuss the latest in oomycete biology, genomics & host interactions.
Saturday 12 July, before MPMI conference
