About

Kevin Garcia is an Assistant Professor at North Carolina State University, specializing in mycorrhizal fungi and their interactions with plant physiology and nutrient dynamics. His recent research includes the influence of potassium availability on salinity tolerance in soybeans and loblolly pine, as well as the role of ectomycorrhizal fungi in nutrient uptake. Additional studies focus on biotechnological applications in plant-pathogen interactions and the physiological responses of various plant species to mycorrhizal colonization.
