Brief introduction

Dominic Dennenmoser is a research assistant at this section, focusing primarily on the Aegilops-Triticum species complex (ATSC), genomic, and statistical affairs. He completed a master thesis on the plant host range of two new and phylogenetically distinguishable species of the Fusarium solani species complex (FSSC) at the section of Ecological Plant Protection (FÖP). He has been involved in the projects HealthyMinorCereals (HMC), INSUSFAR, and Liveseed so far. He is currently preparing a qualification project proposal as well as being involved in single projects supporting breeders and conservation initiatives.
