**The Chair of Phytopathology at the Technical University of Munich, TUM School of Life Sciences, hires a Doctoral student in the field of fungal plant-infection genomics**

The focus of our group is on understanding the molecular interaction of plants with pathogenic fungi and its evolutionary dynamics. We concentrate on host basal immunity and susceptibility pathways and fungal virulence effectors. In the current project, we study powdery mildew fungi as biotrophic pathogens infecting agriculturally relevant crop plant species and focus on species of the genus Blumeria that infect cereal host plants. More specifically, we aim at understanding the function of genomic innovations in Blumeria hordei, which are driven by recombination, transposable elements (TE) and TE-derived neo-functionalization. To this end, we want to integrate genomics, proteomics, bioinformatics and functional biology to understand how genomic innovations translate into novel virulence function in powdery mildew.

The project will be carried out in the group of Prof. Dr. Ralph Hückelhoven at the TUM campus in Freising-Weihenstephan, close to Munich. The chair hosts several research groups studying molecular biology of plant immunity and plant-plant pathogen evolution. The project is part of the newly funded collaborative research center TRR356 facilitating strong interactions among groups with overlapping and complementary expertise in plant microbe interactions. Our project is a joined project with the group of Prof. Aurélien Tellier (TUM Population Genetics) and will be additionally supported by central projects on bioinformatics and data management. In addition, we have several collaborations both national and international and direct access to state of the art technology for genomics, proteomics, bioinformatics, all kinds of molecular biology and cell biology techniques and high quality plant growth rooms and infection chambers.
