Funded Activity Summary

Impact of Phytophthora cinnamomi on native vegetation in South Australia - understanding underlying mechanisms to improve management. The disease Phytophthora dieback threatens many Australian native plants and the animals that rely on them for food and habitat. This research will provide new knowledge of the susceptibility to the disease of plant species that are threatened with extinction, and of the effects of plant and soil microbial community composition on patterns of spread of the disease. This knowledge will assist the recovery of rare and threatened plant species and ecological communities statewide and nationwide.
