Conclusion Growth down, defence up Attempted defence: ▫JA/ET signalling ▫PR genes ▫Flavonoids Possible manipulation/cause of susceptibility ▫Peroxidase putative ortholog ▫Lignin (avoid strengthening cell walls) ▫Flavonoids? – chalcone synthase down ▫Water stress
16
Future work Mapping back to P. cinnamomi to determine what pathogen genes are expressed Compare to responses in resistant/highly tolerant Eucalyptus spp.
