🔬 Using multi-omics & CRISPR, I aim to explore the genetic basis of key traits that shape crop adaptation & use. This could provide insights into how underutilized crops can be optimized for broader cultivation.

🍠 If mashua has so much potential, why isn't it widely grown? Certain biological traits limit its cultivation range and consumer acceptance. Studying these traits at the molecular level is key to unlocking its potential.

🌱 Tropaeolum tuberosum (mashua) is a resilient Andean tuber with high yield, pest resistance & nutritional value—yet it's still underutilized. Could this be a climate-resilient crop of the future? 🏔️🍽️
