My research activities is aimed at:
- Phoma sensu lato group of fungi
- endophytic fungi
- fungal symbiont and their relationships with gall midges. Mutualistic interactions between the gall causing species of dipterans from Asphondylia genus (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) and on fungi developing in the inner wall of galls.
- etiology and epidemiology of infectious diseases of MAPs (medicinal and aromatic plants), with special regards of new and emerging infectious diseases (EIDs).
