Detailed functions 

• In charge of research on the improvement of vegetatively propagated crops and linked areas: transmission of heterozygosity - structural heterozygosity and distorted mendelian segregations - polyploidization and 2N gametes
• In charge of research on biodiversity studies by flow cytometry

Areas of competence and expertise

• cytogenetics: meiotic plates, chromosomes counts                                                   
• flow cytometry: ploidy level, DNA content, AT/GC ratio                                                                           
• In vitro plant tissue culture                                                                                                      
• breeding and selection of sweet and cooking bananas

Research experience

• Research experience in the Musa genus: genetic resources, breeding strategies, biotechnologies and field selection
• Research experience in other tropical crops: citrus (cytogenetics) - pineapple (polyploidization and selection) - papaw (selection) - baobab (DNA content)
