Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Andrea Acuña's research program focuses on the genetic and environmental factors influencing soybean seed composition and yield. Acuña has investigated the impact of flooding during early reproductive stages on soybean yield and seed characteristics, as well as explored methods for screening soybean germplasm for hypoxia tolerance. Her work also examines the genetics of seed protein and oil inheritance in soybean, contributing to the development of improved soybean lines. Acuña has registered R18-14147, a high-protein conventional soybean germplasm line, and R16-45, a flood-tolerant, high-yielding soybean germplasm line. Her research on edamame quality and harvest windows considers the effect of planting dates and cultivar maturity. Acuña has an h-index of 8, with 27 publications and 279 citations. She frequently collaborates with researchers at the Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station and the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Liliana Florez‐Palacios, Leandro Mozzoni, Chengjun Wu, and Derrick Harrison.
