Dr. Muñoz research focuses on two areas:
#1
Improvement of cultivars for Florida and the Southern US with focus on Highbush blueberries since 2017 and Forage species from 2013-2017
#2
Development of models, techniques, and strategies to accelerate the development of improved varieties using traditional breeding, quantitative genetics, genomic, and molecular methods.
Because of the different potential scenarios and data available to test these models and methods a wide variety of commercially important horticultural and agricultural crops, including blueberry, forages, forest trees, among others are used. Below all the work from our lab and collaborations with other labs.
