Annegret Kohler

I received my Ph.D. in plant physiology from the University of Kaiserslautern, Germany, in 1996. During my postdoctoral research, I was first interested in benzothiadiazole-induced priming in Arabidopsis spp. and the priming activity of oligosaccharides from marine algae. I started to work on ectomycorrhizal interactions in 2000. Since 2006, I’m research engineer at the French National Institute for Agricultural Research (INRA) in Nancy, France and responsable for the ecogenomics platform. My research interests mainly focus on comparative genomics and transcriptomics of mycorrhizal interactions to understand their evolution and function.
