Research Profiles
My Links
My research involves the characterization of plant pathogenic fungi, mainly focusing on two groups of fungi:
The Botryosphaeriales and Diaporthales. Both these groups are amongst the most widespread, common and important fungal pathogens of woody plants. The species of these group are common and diverse members of fungal communities that infect native and non-native woody plants. They can be serious pathogens and involved in diseases on native trees, but commonly occur as endophytes. These fungi are also often moved locally and globally with plant material. To interpret patterns of movement as well as host and geographic association, a clear taxonomic and species identification framework is required.
