¨ Research Interests
Generally, my work is aimed to use Lysobacter enzymogenes OH11, a bacterial biological control agent as a model system to study its biology and biocontrol characteristics. Current interests focus on small-molecule chemical signaling systems and their cross regulation in production of an antifungal antibiotic HSAF expressed by strain OH11.
