Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Dotun Olaoye's research focuses on understanding the genetic basis of plant stress responses and crop improvement. He has investigated the genetic architecture of salt tolerance in cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) using multi-parent advanced generation intercross (MAGIC) populations. His work also includes evaluating cowpea for drought tolerance and assessing salt tolerance at the seedling stage. Olaoye has explored bacterial wilt resistance in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) through genome-wide association studies and genomic prediction. Additionally, his research has examined the genetic regulation of sweet potato skin color, utilizing transcript profiling to understand gene expression. He has also contributed to mapping and selecting for downy mildew resistance in spinach (Spinacia oleracea) through whole genome sequencing. Olaoye's work employs RNA-seq meta-analysis and machine learning to identify stress-responsive genes and enhance genomic prediction models, with cross-species applications.
