Most current and recent work has focused on the ecology and symbiosis of ectomycorrhizal fungi, which is one of the most widespread and important mutualisms in terrestrial ecosystems.

Recent work focused on the identification of historic apples (Malus x domestica) residing in abandoned Wyoming orchards, homesteads and nurseries from the 19th and 20th century. Additionally, I extracted DNA and identified cultivars (when possible) for two thousand samples from Eldorado National Forest, Redwood National Forest and Yosemite National Park in California, three conservation orchards (TOC, MORP and SSE) and multiple Universities (Cornell University, Washington State University and Oregon State University) in conjunction with Dr. Gayle M. Volk of the USDA-ARS in Fort Collins Colorado.
