Neus Teixidó mostly deals with Horticulture, Biological pest control, Postharvest, Monilinia and Monilinia fructicola. Her research investigates the connection between Horticulture and topics such as Plant disease resistance that intersect with issues in Resistance. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including CANDIDA SAKE, Toxicology, Ecosystem and Shelf life.

The various areas that Neus Teixidó examines in her Postharvest study include Microorganism, Biopesticide, Pome and Microbial population biology. The Monilinia study combines topics in areas such as Fruit development, Phenology, Citric acid and Sucrose. Her studies in Monilinia fructicola integrate themes in fields like Rhizopus, Cultivar, Penicillium expansum, Peracetic acid and Alternaria.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Compatibility interactions between the biocontrol agent Penicillium frequentans Pf909 and other existing strategies to brown rot control (8 citations)
  • Double-sided battle: The role of ethylene during Monilinia spp. infection in peach at different phenological stages. (6 citations)
  • Pectin methyl esterases and rhamnogalacturonan hydrolases: weapons for successful Monilinia laxa infection in stone fruit? (6 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Gene
  • Biochemistry

Her primary areas of study are Horticulture, Monilinia, Biological pest control, Host–pathogen interaction and Monilinia laxa. Her specific area of interest is Horticulture, where Neus Teixidó studies Monilinia fructicola. The study incorporates disciplines such as Biotic stress, Prunus and Postharvest in addition to Monilinia.

Her Postharvest research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Food science, Shelf life, Biopesticide and Microbial population biology. Her Biological pest control research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Bacillus amyloliquefaciens and Fungicide. Her study looks at the intersection of Monilinia laxa and topics like Microbiology with Fungus and Effector.
