Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Melina Prado's research focuses on the genetic basis of plant disease resistance, particularly in raspberry (Rubus genus) populations. Her work involves constructing and characterizing interspecific raspberry hybrid panels to identify traits related to late leaf rust resistance and adaptation to tropical environments. Prado investigates the application of genomic selection methods for breeding programs, examining factors such as germplasm introduction, training set composition, and genetic optimization algorithms to improve prediction accuracy. Her publications also extend to optimizing multi-environment trials using climate-soil prediction models and exploring multi-omics analyses to understand plant stress responses, as demonstrated in studies on soybean under drought and rust infection. Prado has a h-index of 5 with 19 publications and 105 citations.
