OverviewAI-generated summary

J. C. Rupe's research focuses on plant pathology and crop improvement, with a significant emphasis on soybean diseases. Their work investigates methods to enhance disease resistance in soybean varieties, particularly against Cercospora leaf blight, a widespread issue in the southern United States.

Recent publications explore the genetic factors contributing to this resistance, utilizing Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS). Rupe's research also examines the interaction between plant nutrition, specifically potassium, and disease control, as well as the efficacy of fungicides against soybean seed-borne pathogens like *Diaporthe* spp. and *Cercospora* spp. The group has published on evaluating disease resistance using improved scales and assessing fungicide responses in Arkansas.

Rupe collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Pengyin Chen, Leandro Mozzoni, and Robert C. Holland, and also with Terry Spurlock at the University of Arkansas at Monticello. With a career encompassing 92 publications and 2,808 citations, Rupe is recognized as a highly cited researcher.
