Body:
The long-term goals of this project are to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying engineered nanomaterial induced physiological reprogramming of plant innate immunity that results in both enhanced and compromised resistance to microbial pathogens, and then use this knowledge to engineer nanomaterial that retain beneficial attributes (i.e. fertilizer and fungicide delivery) while mitigating negative impacts.
