This researcher studies how plant roots grow, develop, and respond to microbes, with a strong focus on tomato and other crop species. Work spans plant-pathogen interactions (especially bacterial wilt disease caused by Ralstonia), root immune responses, root development and imaging, and newer projects on plant behavior in simulated microgravity for space biology applications. Methods combine molecular plant biology, computational/imaging tools (like X-ray CT scanning and computational modeling), and phenotyping platforms to study root and plant traits.
Publication output has fluctuated over the past decade but shows an overall increase, rising from single digits in 2017-2019 to a peak of 12 publications in 2025, with a mean of about 6.4 papers per year over the last five years.
