Research interests
Detection and identification of bacterial and fungal plant pathogens as well as other endophytic and saprotrophic microorganisms using microscopic, biochemical and molecular analysis, isolation of pathogens in pure cultures, pathogenicity and virulence studies; isolation of DNA from different substrates (different types of soil, plant material, etc.), application of different PCR methods (MLST, rep-PCR, MP PCR, microsatellite analysis, etc.), sequencing, DNA fingerprinting, genomic and and metagenomic analysis; population structure studies; search for chemical and biological control measures and research in vivo and in vitro.
