Biography
Zhibo Hamborg is a plant virologist working on plant viruses and viroids. Her work focuses on the detection, management and control of plant viruses and viroids, including interactions between plants, viruses and their vectors.
She works with the development and maintenance of virus- and viroid-free plant material using tissue culture and virus elimination methods. This work covers several plant species, including potato, fruit and berry crops, Allium species and other vegetatively propagated plants. She also works with cryopreservation of healthy plant material and plant genetic resources for long-term storage.
She is responsible for the National Clonal Bank for Potato and works with the conservation of potato genetic resources.
In addition, she has experience in the study of mycoviruses and their potential use in biological control of plant pathogens, and she uses high-throughput sequencing (HTS) for virus and viroid detection and characterization.
