Our greenhouse is up and running and the watermelons are growing at a rapid speed. We have started making some crosses. Most of these crosses are between Citrullus lanatus var. lanatus and C. lanatus var. citroides.
The lab focuses on breeding, genetics and genomics of vegetable crops, especially cucurbits and peppers. Our research include (but is not limited to) understanding the plant’s response to disease infection and finding markers/genes that can be used to breed more disease resistant varieties.
We are also interested in plant germplasm conservation and management and ideas on how to ensure more efficient use of germplasm resources.
