SUMMARY:Webinar All aabout Virology
DESCRIPTION:Register here\nThe AAB Virology specialist group are happy to present this webinar all ‘aabout’ Virology. \nFeaturing talks from:  \nProf. Svetlana Y. Folimonova (University of Florida\, USA):  \n“Citrus tristeza virus: Uncovering unusual molecular features of a complex RNA virus” \nDr. Svetlana Y. Folimonova received her PhD in Microbiology from Moscow State University\, Moscow\, Russia. She held a postdoctoral position at the S. R. Noble Foundation\, Ardmore\, Oklahoma and a postdoctoral position at the University of Florida\, Citrus Research and Education Center\, Lake Alfred\, Florida. Dr. Folimonova was appointed Assistant Professor of Plant Pathology at the University of Florida\, Gainesville\, Florida\, in 2012. In 2016\, she was promoted to Associate Professor\, and\, in 2022 – to Professor. Dr. Folimonova’s research program focuses on viral and bacterial pathogens of citrus\, with the main emphasis on Citrus tristeza virus (CTV) and Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus\, a causal agent of citrus greening [Huanglongbing (HLB)]. Her primary research effort is concentrated on understanding the mechanisms of the infection process\, host responses to the pathogens\, and developing management strategies for these diseases. In 2020\, Dr. Folimonova received a prestigious Syngenta Crop Protection Award from the American Phytopathological Society for her contributions to research on CTV and\, specifically\, for the elucidation of the mechanism of the CTV superinfection exclusion and for the research accomplishments on the development of the CTV-based vectors for expression of antimicrobial proteins for management of citrus greening. Dr. Folimonova also serves as Councilor for Plant Virology at the American Society for Virology. \nHana Azuma (University of Cambridge\, UK):  \n“The Effects of Cucumber Mosaic Virus Infection on Interactions of Arabidopsis thaliana with Specialist and Non-Specialist Aphids “ \nDr Esperanza Gea Caballero (CEBAS-CSIC\, Spain):  \n“Cucumber green mottle mosaic virus: A persistent seed-borne threat to cucurbits” (https://doi.org/10.1111/aab.70136) \nRegister for free to receive the webinar link! \nPlease note that we do not issue attendance certificates for our webinar series.
