TRAYECTORIA

Currently she participates in projects based one early detection of grapevine foliar fungal diseases: downy and powdery mildew and botrytis, using different methodologies such as molecular, microscopic and cytometric techniques, in order to avoid the dispersion and reduce the pressure of the causative microorganisms of these diseases to apply the fewest possible phytochemical treatments. Likewise,she works on the development of strategies aimed at reducing and optimizing the application of phytosanitary products in the control of pests and diseases of the vineyard. I have participated in numerous European and national projects, being the leader of several of them, such as the LIFE FITOVID project. He has published several scientific and popular articles, and participated in the generation of two patents related to the early detection of pathogens.
