Research Description
My research focuses on plant-fungi interactions, particularly mycorrhizal fungi. I study the rhizosphere mycobiome of forest trees and how plant traits affect its assembly, as well as the Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi associated with major crops in Benin and their role in stress tolerance and productivity.
