Currently a postdoctoral researcher at the Luiz de Queiroz College of Agriculture (ESALQ/USP), Brazil, investigating transcriptomic responses of sugarcane to Pratylenchus zeae and working on the genome assembly of the same pathogen. My academic journey spans agronomy, plant pathology, and molecular genetics, with experience in both academia and industry, focusing on sustainable crop protection, genetic resistance, and integrative nematology.</p>Updated chromosome-level genome assembly of Sporisorium scitamineum with improved accuracy and completenesshttps://genomicsgroupesalq.github.io/publication/taniguti_2025/Tue, 27 May 2025 00:00:00 +0000https://genomicsgroupesalq.github.io/publication/taniguti_2025/
