Her research program focuses on: the diversity, evolution, ecology, and taxonomy of whitefly (genus, Begomovirus) - and leafhopper (genus, Curtovirus)-transmitted geminiviruses, emergent whitefly-transmitted viruses; the cellular, molecular, and genomics basis for virus-vector specificity; and the natural history, taxonomy, genetics, and evolution of the whitefly Bemisia tabaci species group.
