 The main goal of this lab is to determine how to manage for a healthy forest and not exacerbate insects and disease.  This research focuses on the biology and ecology of the root disease agents, Leptographium, Grosmannia, and Ophiostoma species and their vectors as components of southern pine decline and mortality. Primary areas of interest include mycology, host-fungal interactions, fungal-insect interactions, fungal and insect ecology, forest health, and disease risk mapping.
