Roberts - Plant-Microbe Lab

The Roberts Lab focuses on plant-microbe interactions and plant immunity using wheat as a model for cropping systems. Motivated by the needs of Colorado farmers, we study the molecular interactions and emergence of diseases primarily caused by viruses and bacteria.

Research Content

As Colorado agriculture grows, so does our research. Finding new ways to keep wheat and tomato crops safe while reducing environmental impact to ensure healthy food and environment is our top priority. Read more about our current research projects being run at the Roberts lab to discover innovation in Colorado's wheat industry.
