About
P. Caruso is a leading figure in plant pathology and microbial diagnostics, whose work has fundamentally advanced the detection of plant pathogens. Their research focuses on developing innovative, rapid, and reliable tools for identifying viruses and bacteria that threaten global agriculture. Caruso’s most-cited work, "Innovative tools for detection of plant pathogenic viruses and bacteria" (2003), with over 300 citations, is a cornerstone in the field, providing a comprehensive framework for molecular and serological methods that replaced slower, less accurate techniques. This contribution has been instrumental in enabling early disease diagnosis, improving crop protection strategies, and supporting biosecurity efforts. Caruso’s impact is reflected not only in the widespread adoption of these diagnostic tools by researchers and agricultural agencies but also in the subsequent advancements they have inspired. Their work remains essential for students and professionals seeking to understand and combat plant diseases, making Caruso a pivotal figure in safeguarding food security through precise pathogen surveillance.
