Description of the research topic:
During the research, chemically variable model plants are colonized by synthetic or natural fungal communities. With these models, the following hypotheses are examined among others: (1) the successful asymptomatic colonization of the members of synthetic communities depends on the sensitivity towards the plant antifungals and (2) in plants with different chemistry, endophytic microbiome is a function of specialized metabolite levels. The research is conducted using generic plant and microbiological techniques as well as modern chemical and bioinformatic analyses.
