Overview

Peter S. Solomon is affiliated with the Australian National University in Australia. Their research primarily spans the fields of Agricultural and Biological Sciences with a significant focus on Biochemistry, Genetics, and Molecular Biology. Within these disciplines, their work concentrates on several subfields, including Plant Science, Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, Genetics, and Immunology.

The scientist has contributed extensively to topics related to plant-microbe interactions and immunity, wheat and barley genetics and pathology, plant disease resistance and genetics, and studies on plant pathogenic bacteria. They have also researched fungal and yeast genetics, mycotoxins in agriculture and food, as well as fungal diseases affecting plants.

Notable recent publications include:

  • A thousand-genome panel retraces the global spread and adaptation of a major fungal crop pathogen, 2023, Nature Communications
  • PR1-mediated defence via C-terminal peptide release is targeted by a fungal pathogen effector, 2020, New Phytologist
  • Victorin, the host-selective cyclic peptide toxin from the oat pathogen Cochliobolus victoriae, is ribosomally encoded, 2020, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
