Dr. Sarah Hind studies how the plant immune system detects pathogenic bacteria that cause diseases in tomato and other vegetable crops. Her research contributes to understanding plant-microbe interactions and aids in developing plants with enhanced resistance to infection.

More information: 
Hind's research interests combine her expertise in plant-insect and plant-microbe interactions with technical skills to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of plant perception to insect feeding. Her research identifies new molecular elements involved with plant perception of insect feeding-derived signals, including molecules found on the plant or within the insect's gut. Her past research includes investigating allelic variation and receptor effects on plant immune systems, the prevalence of bacterial spot in Illinois tomato fields, and biocontrol techniques for managing crop disease.

Pumpkin disease not evolving, could make a difference for management

The pathogen that causes bacterial spot is very good at what it does. Forming small lesions on the rinds of pumpkins, melons, cucumbers, and other cucurbits, it mars the fruits’ appearance and ushers in secondary pathogens that lead to rot and severe yield loss. The bacterium, Xanthomonas cucurbitae, is so successful that it has had no reason to evolve through time or space.
