Unravelling the diversity and conservation of wild Capsicum species in central Bolivia: an integrated taxonomic and genomic approach
Project summary:
This project aims to clarify the taxonomy, diversity, and conservation status of wild Capsicum species in central Bolivia by integrating fieldwork, herbarium studies, and genomic analyses. The grant will support herbarium research at LPB and field explorations in underexplored areas, enhancing knowledge of these culturally and ecologically significant Andean chiles.
