Welcome!
...to the Molecular Phytopathology Department!
Our group belongs to the Botanical Institute, and we recently moved to the South Campus of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in the Building 30.43, 2nd. Floor. We share the infrastructure with two Departments (Microbiology and Genetics) from the Institute for Applied Biosciences (IAB). The research focus of our group is the molecular understanding of the interaction between microorganisms, particularly fungi, and plants.
