Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

J. C. Rupe's research focuses on plant pathology, with a particular emphasis on disease resistance in soybean (Glycine max). Their work investigates the genetic factors contributing to enhanced resistance against diseases such as Cercospora leaf blight, utilizing methods like Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS).

Rupe has examined the ecology and diversity of fungal species associated with soybean seedling diseases and has studied the development of resistance to fungicides, such as QoI-fungicides, in problematic isolates. Additionally, their research has explored the interaction between plant nutrition, specifically potassium, and disease control, as well as breeding strategies for traits like flood tolerance in soybean.

With a highly cited researcher designation, Rupe has authored 91 publications and has a h-index of 30. Key collaborators at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville include Pengyin Chen, Robert C. Holland, and Leandro Mozzoni.
