with the ultimate goal of understand the fundamental importance of plant-parasitic nematodes in modern
agriculture. In recent times research of Dra Andres focuses on the developing new methods for controlling
nematode-induced crop damage by the optimization and biotechnological production of botanical and fungal
biopesticides, which is being carried out into biopesticide group of ICA-CSIC.
Their intense activity in this field has allowed them to achieve an international patent She has published more
