Postdoctoral Research Associate position in Plant Ecology
2 months ago
Job No: 532068
Work Type: Post Doc Associate
Location: Main Campus (Gainesville, FL)
Categories: Biology/Life Science, Agricultural Sciences
Department: - AG-AGRONOMY
Job Description
Classification Title:
Postdoc Aso
Job Description:
The Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences is creating an environment that affirms community across all dimensions. We particularly welcome applicants who can contribute to such an environment through their scholarship, teaching, mentoring, and professional service. If an accommodation due to a disability is needed to apply for this position, please call or the Florida Relay System at (TDD) or visit Accessibility at UF .
The Flory Lab at the University of Florida (UF) is recruiting a postdoctoral research associate for a project that examines the role of invasive plants in the eco-evolutionary dynamics of pathogen transmission across ecosystems boundaries and crop disease emergence ( Goss et al. 2020 Annu Rev Phytopath ).
This is a collaborative, interdisciplinary project funded by the USDA-NSF-NIH Ecology and Evolution of Infectious Disease program. Our focus is the rapid emergence of Bipolaris gigantea, a fungal pathogen of grasses, on industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa containing less than 0.3% THC). We previously studied outbreaks of leaf spot epidemics on the invasive grass Microstegium vimineum in natural ecosystems ( Stricker et al. 2016 Ecol Letters , Lane et al. 2020 Mycologia ), and B. gigantea is found on monocot and dicot invasive and weedy plants bordering fields and into surrounding natural areas ( Szarka et al. 2023 Mycologia). This project will examine ecological drivers of pathogen transmission within and between species and ecosystems, pathogen evolution on a novel host, and will develop eco-evolutionary infectious disease models for coupled natural-agricultural systems.
This postdoc position will work with two other postdocs already hired, and project PIs Luke Flory (UF Agronomy), Erica Goss, Phil Harmon and Brantlee Spakes Richter (UF Plant Pathology), Bob Holt (UF Biology), Nicole Gauthier (U Kentucky), Natalie Christian (U Louisville), Maria Orive (U Kansas), Keith Clay (Tulane University). The University of Florida has large and dynamic research programs in ecology and invasion science, plant and fungal, and genomics, providing a strong intellectual environment for postdocs.
The successful candidate for this position should have a strong interest and experience in community ecology. The focus with this position is on generating empirical data on how disease affects ecological interactions. Experience with disease ecology is desired but not a requirement.
Preferred start date is fall 2024 or as late as mid-spring 2025. Renewable annually up to 2.5 years. For full consideration please submit application materials by September 15, 2024.
Informal inquiries are welcome: S. Luke Flory
