Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Alexander Silva investigates the genetic underpinnings of plant traits, with a recent focus on tetraploid blackberry (Rubus). His work explores the genetic control of prickle formation, a key characteristic in this species. Silva also studies the genetic basis for primocane fruiting, a trait that significantly impacts blackberry cultivation. His research employs genomic analyses to identify specific genomic regions and candidate genes associated with these traits. In addition to his work on blackberries, Silva has contributed to studies on feature quantification and flower intensity assessment in plants using Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) remote sensing technology. He has also been involved in research on scintillation effects in S-band telemetry links. Silva holds an h-index of 2 and has published 8 total citations.
