Plant pathology is a branch of study that focuses on interaction between pathogens and plants. It is challenging, fascinating, important, and worth studying with a main goal of protecting the food available for humans and animals as well as to overcome issues of food security and food safety. Our research in plant pathology is emphasizing on studies of fungal and bacterial pathogens from various genera. Research areas cover several aspects of mycology, pathogen biology, mycotoxigenic fungi, disease diagnosis, pathogenicity and host range, plant disease epidemiology, plant pathogen taxonomy, population genetics of plant pathogens, and disease control methods on a wide range of agricultural crops. Plant tissue culture and molecular biology techniques are also incorporated in related studies. The focus of plant pathology research also involves detailed examination of mycoherbicides, mycorrhizae, and tropical plant diseases.
