Plant Pathology Graduate Student Participation in Publications on Plant Pathogens

Piao Yang a grad student from the Ohio State Plant Pathology program has recently participated in several publications around research into detecting, diagnosis and prevention of plant pathogens. 

Yang, who completed a BS and MS from Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University in China has been very active working in research labs here at Ohio State under Ye Xia and recently Shuai Huang with research interest in plant immunity, plant-microbe interactions, bioinformatics, cell biology, and biochemistry. 

Over the past year, several papers have been published out of the lab that features work by Yang and others within the program. 

  1. Botrytis cinerea in vivo Inoculation Assays for Early-, Middle- and Late-stage Strawberries
  2. Bacillus proteolyticus OSUB18 triggers induced systemic resistance against bacterial and fungal pathogens in Arabidopsis
  3. Detection, Diagnosis, and Preventive Management of the Bacterial Plant Pathogen Pseudomonas syringae
  4. Plant Growth Promotion and Stress Tolerance Enhancement through Inoculation with Bacillus proteolyticus OSUB18
  5. Rab7/Retromer-based endolysosomal trafficking is essential for proper host invasion in rice blast
