Lead Researcher (PI): Christopher Todd & Allyson MacLean
Institution:
University of Saskatchewan & University of Ottawa
Total WGRF Funding:
$250,010
Co-Funders:
Saskatchewan Canola Development Commission
Start Date:
2020
Project Length:
4 Years
Objectives:
To identify key molecular events that facilitate the establishment and development of clubroot disease by identifying Plasmodiophora brassicae effector proteins and by identifying differentially expressed proteins in clubroot-susceptible and club-root resistant canola lines.
