BIO & RESEARCH INTERESTs

My research program is focused on the integrated management of turfgrass pests in Oklahoma. Research projects have examined the biology and management of nematodes, insects, and turfgrass diseases. More recent efforts have been directed at the biology of May/June beetles, Spring dead spot of bermudagrass, and fungal biodiversity in the roots of native prairie grasses.
