The main focus of my lab research is exploring virus-virus, virus-host, and virus-vector interactions of economically important wheat streak mosaic virus (WSMV), Triticum mosaic virus (TriMV), and High Plains wheat mosaic virus (HPWMoV). Since these three viruses are transmitted by a common vector, wheat curl mite, mixed infection of wheat with two or three viruses is common in growers’ fields with exacerbated yield loss. My lab is working on understanding how these viruses cause disease in wheat and identifying the host and vector factors required for the completion of the virus infection cycle. This information will be utilized to disrupt the virus infection cycle through RNA interference and gene editing technologies.
