About
My research interest lies in the dynamic field of plant–microbe interactions (endopshere, rhizosphere and phytopathogens), with a strong focus on understanding the molecular and evolutionary mechanisms that govern microbe symbiosis, nutrient cycling and host immunity. My current research endeavors are dedicated to advancing our understanding of interkingdom and intrakingdom communications shaping beneficial plant–microbiome associations, coordinated regulatory networks enabling stable symbioses, and the translation of this knowledge into sustainable, microbiome-based strategies to enhance crop productivity, resilience, and development.
