My current research interest includes environmental impact assessment of biological invasions, particularly invasive plant species and their interactions with their biocontrol agents and native biodiversity.Thrust areas of our research includes:
- Understanding the trends of aquatic plant succession through inter-weed interaction studies.
- Isolation, identification and biocontrol potential of phytopathogenic fungi associated with weeds.
- Enhancing biological control mechanism of weeds through integration of insects and fungal agents and understanding the ecological and biochemical interactions between them.
- Studies on characterization of fungal metabolites as bioherbicide and other agricultural use for industrial production.
- Impact of urbanization and other environmental changes on butterfly species
