M. Divya's research focuses on plant pathology and agricultural science, with recent publications investigating the genomic basis of virulence in pathogens affecting millet crops. Studies include unraveling the pathogenomics of *Rhizoctonia solani* in proso millet and examining its role in banded sheath blight in barnyard and kodo millet. Further work explores the morphological and cultural variability of *Rhizoctonia solani* isolates and their management. Divya also investigates the evaluation of phenol metabolic enzymes in mustard cultivars against *Alternaria brassicicola* and the management of weevil pests in stored rice seeds. Additional research areas include the isolation and characterization of thermoduric psychrotrophic bacteria from pasteurized milk samples and advancements in minor millet breeding.
