Research Focus 🌾🔬

Parissa Taheri’s pioneering work in Plant Pathology and Mycology revolves around unraveling intricate plant-microbe interactions. Her studies explore the dynamic interplay of oxidative stress, antioxidant responses, and callose deposition in tomatoes facing diverse Rhizoctonia spp. Additionally, she delves into the role of endophytic fungi like Acrophialophora jodhpurensis, methionine, and nitric oxide in fortifying wheat against Fusarium graminearum. Taheri’s investigations extend to the crosstalk of nitro-oxidative stress and iron in plant immunity, showcasing a holistic understanding of plant defense mechanisms. She explores biocontrol potential in endophytic bacteria against wheat pathogens and leverages essential oils for controlling fungi and bacteria on cereals. This multidimensional research enriches agricultural practices, emphasizing sustainable solutions and the pivotal role of beneficial microorganisms. 🌱👩‍🔬 #PlantPathology #Mycology #Biocontrol #SustainableAgriculture
