Brenda D. Wingfield is a South African Professor of genetics and Deputy Dean of the University of Pretoria.

Early life

Brenda Wingfield is a former attendee of Zimbabwean school. She graduated with B.Sc. from the University of Cape Town, Master's degree from the University of Minnesota[1] and PhD from the University of Stellenbosch (1989).[2] She had published over 300 articles on genetics and trained over 40 both Masters and PhD students respectively.[1]

Research

In 1995 Wingfield studied various species of Armillaria, especially A. cepistipes, A. gellus, A. mellea, and A. tabescens in Europe and North America.[3] In 2004 she along with Michael Wingfield, Pedro Crous and Irene Barnes studied variations of D. septosporum and D. pini and concluded her research on a fact that D. pini is a synonym for D. septosporum.[4] In April of the same year she studied introduction of L. wingfieldii fungi into North America and how it is consumed by various bark beetles such as T. piniperda, D. valens and I. pini.[5]

Awards

Wingfield was a recipient of the Christiaan Hendrik Persoon medal for her scientific achievements from the Southern African Society for Plant Pathology.[6] In 2016 an Oppenheimer Memorial Trust has awarded her with an Harry Oppenheimer Fellowship Award.[7]
