IVAN MILENKOVIĆ

My main professional skills are isolation, morphological and molecular identification and characterization of Phytophthora species. My main research interest will be in determining of diversity, ecology and pathogenicity of Phytophthora species in different natural and semi-natural ecosystems in Serbia. Also, my work is concentrated on the role of nurseries in introduction and spreading of invasive Phytophthora species into different natural forest ecosystems. My work is also directed to interaction between Phytophthora infections and other pathogenic organisms and pests and their role in the decline of forest trees in Serbia. In addition, I am generally interested in root and bark diseases of broadleaved trees.
