Biography
He belong to the group “Insect Vectors of Plant Pathogensâ€, which main goal is to provide new fundamental knowledge on the transmission mechanisms of plant pathogens by their insect vectors and to develop sustainable management practices to optimize vector control and to interfere with the plant pathogens they transmit.
Research Interest
My research has been focussed on the field of insect-pathogen-plant interactions, insect feeding behaviour and plant pathogens epidemiology and control.
