About
Over the years, my research has focused on fungal genetics and genomics, disease epidemiology, fungicide resistance, and the integration of chemical, biological, and host resistance–based strategies for the sustainable management of plant diseases across multiple crops, including wheat, turfgrass, and switchgrass, with a current emphasis on ornamental plant disease diagnostics and sustainable management.
