What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?
Geneviève Défago spends much of her time researching Microbiology, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Botany, 2,4-Diacetylphloroglucinol and Rhizosphere.
Her Microbiology research includes themes of Pseudomonas, Bacteria, Pseudomonadaceae, Mutant and Strain.
Geneviève Défago has included themes like Root rot, Rhizobacteria, Biochemistry, Microbial inoculant and Pythium ultimum in her Pseudomonas fluorescens study.
Geneviève Défago has researched Botany in several fields, including Aphanocladium album and Horticulture.
As part of the same scientific family, Geneviève Défago usually focuses on 2,4-Diacetylphloroglucinol, concentrating on Fusarium and intersecting with Mycotoxin.
In her study, Antibiosis is strongly linked to Soil microbiology, which falls under the umbrella field of Rhizosphere.

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:
Her primary scientific interests are in Microbiology, Botany, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Pseudomonas and 2,4-Diacetylphloroglucinol.
Her Microbiology research incorporates themes from DNA extraction, Fusarium, Erwinia, Bacteria and Virulence.
Her work on Fungi imperfecti, Xylem and Chlorophyll fluorescence as part of general Botany research is frequently linked to Water transport, bridging the gap between disciplines.
Her work carried out in the field of Pseudomonas fluorescens brings together such families of science as Biotechnology, Biochemistry, Type three secretion system and Biological pest control, Pythium ultimum.
In her study, Root rot, Soil microbiology, Agronomy, Monoculture and Soil horizon is inextricably linked to Rhizosphere, which falls within the broad field of Pseudomonas.
The study incorporates disciplines such as rpoB and Sequence analysis in addition to 2,4-Diacetylphloroglucinol.
Between 2004 and 2014, her most popular works were:
- Biological control of soil-borne pathogens by fluorescent pseudomonads (1653 citations)
- Pseudomonas protegens sp. nov., widespread plant-protecting bacteria producing the biocontrol compounds 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol and pyoluteorin. (208 citations)
- Biocontrol of Root Diseases by Pseudomonas fluorescens CHA0: Current Concepts and Experimental Approaches (178 citations)
