Description:

Plant pathology, biological control and microbial ecology

RESEARCH TOPICS

Our laboratory studies beneficial bacteria for plants that could serve as biopesticides and improve the environmental footprint of agriculture.

We are particularly interested in the mechanisms by which these bacteria inhibit plant pathogens, their interactions with the soil microbiota, and their potential for synergy with each other and with other biological control agents.

Our research lies at the intersection of phytopathology, microbiology, microbial ecology, and plant biology. It draws on microbiology, molecular biology, and sequencing techniques, as well as various fungal, bacterial, and plant species.

Keywords: plant pathology • biological control • biocontrol • microbiology • genomics • microbial ecology • plant production • agriculture
