Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Maria I. Villarroel-Zeballos's research focuses on plant pathology, investigating fungal and oomycete pathogens that affect agricultural crops. Her recent work includes the first report of Fusarium wilt on blackberry in Arkansas, caused by *Fusarium oxysporum* f. sp. *mori*, and the characterization of novel strains of spinach downy mildew. She has also contributed to the genomic sequencing of hemp pathogens, specifically *Neofusicoccum parvum*. Villarroel-Zeballos has authored nine publications with 90 citations and an h-index of 6. She collaborates with researchers from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including James C. Correll and Hannah Victoria Zima, and with Burt H. Bluhm from the Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station.
