He was a Graduate Teaching Assistant for Introduction to Plant Breeding and Breeding Disease Resistance. It was at Oklahoma State University, as an undergraduate assistant in the Plant Pathology Department, that he learned to appreciate the complexity of plant diseases affecting horticultural crops. At the University of Arkansas, he evaluated blackberries, peaches, nectarines, grapes, and blueberries for improved disease resistance.ver menos
