Crop diversity: Breadfruit's checkered past bears fruit for food security

Research output: Contribution to journal › Comment/debate › peer-review

Abstract

New interdisciplinary research on breadfruit helps reconcile cultivar names with genotypic and phenotypic diversity across time, continents, and cultures. The findings will advance breeding and conservation initiatives for this underutilized crop, but also highlight methodological challenges commonplace in crop evolutionary studies.
