Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Hannah Victoria Zima's research focuses on the identification and characterization of plant pathogens, particularly in agricultural contexts. Her work includes the first report of *Neofusicoccum parvum* causing dieback and canker disease on hemp in the United States and the first report of *Fusarium oxysporum* f. sp. mori causing Fusarium wilt of blackberry in Arkansas. Zima also investigates the genetic variation and virulence of pathogens affecting crops like spinach, evaluating different cultivars for resistance to downy mildew. Her publications include draft genome sequences for fungal pathogens, contributing to a deeper understanding of their biology and host interactions. She collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including James C. Correll, Kelley J. Clark, Maria I. Villarroel-Zeballos, and Burton H. Bluhm, on these studies.
