Research
The department undertakes fundamental and applied research focused on interactions involving plants, pathogenic, symbiotic and saprotrophic fungi and other microorganisms and their role in forest and agricultural systems.
Important research areas include ecosystem and molecular ecology, population biology and the molecular regulation of microorganisms as well as modelling and practical managment of plant diseases. The Department of Forest Mycology and Pathology is now part of the BioCenter at SLU. In the autumn of 2012, the personell consists of 5 professors, ca 25 researchers, 25 PhD students and ca 10 post docs with a broad compentence in both molecular and ecological microbiology.
