Research Topics
Systematics of Ascomycetous plant pathogenic fungi,
especially with respect to correct diagnoses of diseases. At present I am
concentrating on the
Botryosphaeriaceae
and the genus Diaporthe/Phomopsis. In an attempt to organize the data coming from
various sources on
Botryosphaeria systematics, I have prepared
and maintain a
website
dedicated to this genus.
