Nick Talbot group

Magnaporthe oryzae causes rice blast disease. Rice blast affects seedlings, causing a leaf spot disease characterised by large ellipsoid shaped necrotic lesions.

Research in the Nick Talbot group involves the understanding of how fungi are able to cause disease in plants, specifically one of the world’s most devastating diseases called rice blast.
