In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:

Her main research concerns Xylella fastidiosa, Subspecies, Xylem, Genetics and Olive trees. In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Xylella fastidiosa, Clade, Internal transcribed spacer and Zoology is strongly linked to Outbreak. As part of one scientific family, Blanca B. Landa deals mainly with the area of Subspecies, narrowing it down to issues related to the Multilocus sequence typing, and often Specific identification and Typing.

Xylem is a subfield of Botany that Blanca B. Landa tackles. As part of the same scientific family, Blanca B. Landa usually focuses on Botany, concentrating on Isolation and intersecting with DNA sequencing. Her research in Olive trees focuses on subjects like Genetic diversity, which are connected to Biological dispersal, Evolutionary biology, Balearic islands and Ecology.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Sex Differences in the Gut Microbiota as Potential Determinants of Gender Predisposition to Disease. (30 citations)
  • Emergence of a Plant Pathogen in Europe Associated with Multiple Intercontinental Introductions. (17 citations)
  • Culture-Dependent and Culture-Independent Characterization of the Olive Xylem Microbiota: Effect of Sap Extraction Methods. (13 citations)

In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Bacteria

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Subspecies, Xylella fastidiosa, Olive trees, Leaf scorch and Outbreak. Blanca B. Landa has included themes like Biological dispersal, Multilocus sequence typing and Genetic diversity in her Subspecies study. Her studies deal with areas such as Aroma and Verticillium wilt as well as Olive trees.

Her research in Leaf scorch intersects with topics in Phylogenetics, Genome, Sequence analysis and Phylogenetic tree. Blanca B. Landa focuses mostly in the field of Outbreak, narrowing it down to topics relating to Phylogenetic inference and, in certain cases, Botany. Her Botany study combines topics in areas such as Microbiological culture, Methylobacterium, 16S ribosomal RNA, Bacteria and Isolation.
