Our group is mainly interested in two lines of research: 1) Genetic and functional analysis of the interaction of the bacterium Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae with mango plants. Plasmids and virulence. We are evaluating the genetic basis of toxin production and regulation, and other factors with a role during the epiphytic life-style phase. The evolution and diversity among P. syringae populations is under study 2) Biocontrol studies against soil borne fungal pathogens using microorganisms. A genomic approach to study the interactions among rhizobacteria, fungi and plants. Study of suppressivenes nature against white-rot of avocado after application of organic mulches. The cellular communication have being studied using artificial microbial communities.
