Curriculum Vitae

Inês Isabel Plácido dos Santos Diniz

ID is a young researcher with a strong core in plant pathology, cytology and molecular biology. ID as developed her scientific research in the two main coffee fungal diseases; coffee berry disease (CBD, caused by Colletotrichum kahawae) and coffee leaf rust (CLR, caused by Hemileia vastatrix). Nevertheless, over the last years, ID has extended her research into other national and international important crops and has been part of new synergies with other scientific partners. In 2018 and 2023, ID participated in the field expedition to assess the cashew orchard's (PTDC/AGRPRO/5727/2014) and cowpea phytosanitary status and identify potential fungi-related diseases in Guinea-Bissau. These works originated new synergies with Guinean agricultural cooperatives, partnership with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO - GB TCP/GBS/3801), and European biotechnology research Companies (Biotalys, Belgium), all with a great impact on the local agricultural and scientific community. As a result, ID was deeply committed to publishing the findings in peer-review papers, with scientific dissemination actions in books, manuals, and online training sections aiming to capacitate the Guinean local and scientific community. ID has also developed her work in grapevine-Erysiphe necator interactions (PTDC/ASP-HOR/28485/2017). The reprogramming of the transcriptome and metabolome in grapevine leaves under infection revealed important cues about the importance of phytohormone network in disease outcome as tolerance and susceptibility to powdery mildew (caused by Erysiphe necator). This latter work consolidated the ID knowledge about the phytohormone role and crosstalk in plan defence. ID is a member of Linking Landscape, Environment, Agriculture and Food (LEAF/ISA/ULisboa) and Tropical college (CTROP//ULisboa). ID published a total of 14 papers: 4 as first author, 3 as correspondent author, and 7 as co-author; is a co-author of a book (in submission), 1 book chapter, and co-author of 2 technical manuals and also 7 conference proceedings. ID co-authored 18 GenBank DNA sequences. ID work is also reflected in national and international communications at scientific meetings (21 oral presentations and 32 posters), 1 report and in the organization of 3 meetings /workshops. ID has also been committed to dissemination and outreach activities.
