OUR EDGE
We apply a broad expertise across plant science and agriculture to connect deep research with real-world solutions. By linking every stage from theory to field, we build programs that turn foundational data into advanced R&D pipelines.

Breeding semi-domesticated and wild species
Mapping -omic diversity towards market-breeding of moringa
Expanding temperate industrial crops into the tropics
Pushing biological limits with wide hybridization
We breed semi-domesticated and wild species to create higher-quality botanical insecticides while maintaining yield. By combining proximal sensing, genetic markers, and systems design, we improve breeding and operational efficiency and build R&D capacity with partners in East Africa.
We apply genomics, metabolomics, phenomics, and pangenome analysis in moringa to map useful -omic variation. This work sharpens breeding targets and guides market-specific applications, from nutrition and health to sustainable agriculture.
We reduce photoperiod sensitivity in this specialty sweetener crop to expand production into the tropics. Alongside breeding, we develop agronomic management systems that enable profitable tropical production of an emerging bioenergy seed crop.
We work with crops that have antagonistic traits for efficient production, using wide-hybridization to push biological limits. By shifting photosynthetic strategies and optimizing both seed- and clone-based propagation systems, we open new frontiers for scalable, resilient production.
