Research summary
AI-generated

This researcher studies plant diseases in crops such as wheat, coffee, maize, and tomato, with a particular focus on Fusarium head blight in wheat and the mycotoxins (toxic fungal byproducts) it produces in grain. Much of the work combines field disease management trials (fungicides, genetic resistance, environmental effects) with methodological studies on how to measure and sample plant disease severity and spread. The research blends practical crop protection questions with statistical and epidemiological methods for quantifying disease patterns.
