Graduate Fields are composed of faculty members with research interests related to the field of study. Most members of a given Graduate Field are faculty in the corresponding SIPS Section, but some have appointments within other SIPS Sections, other departments at Cornell, or are affiliated with USDA or the Boyce Thompson Institute.
Field faculty by concentration
Graduate Fields at Cornell bring together faculty from different academic units. Faculty serving the graduate program in PPPMB include most of the Section faculty as well as faculty from additional academic units such as Plant Biology, Microbiology, International Programs, and others, whose research involves PPPMB. Any of these individuals can serve as Special Committee Chair for a Graduate student in the program.
Faculty affiliated with the Field of Plant Pathology and Plant-Microbe Biology are listed below by program concentration.
