My Links

During my MSc, I evaluated the host status of seasonal cover crop species to- and subsequent allelopathic effects against Phytophthora nicotianae on a rough lemon rootstock.


I have a passion for crop production that is in harmony with the broad ecosystem. Thus, my fascination and excitement at the biological control of pre-harvest diseases of economic importance. This aligns with the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations (SDG 2 and 13) and the global desire of sustainably produced food.
