Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Jorge L Andrade-Piedra"
- Jorge L Andrade-Piedra's research focuses on the intersection of plant pathology and agricultural sustainability, addressing threats posed by both natural and human-driven disasters to global plant health, with a particular emphasis on potato crops and the management of diseases like late blight.
- His recent studies in Ecuador highlight the challenges faced by farmers in managing potato seed degeneration, suggesting a gap in understanding and practice that affects their ability to adapt seed replacement strategies.
- Andrade-Piedra has also developed simulation models like BLIGHTSIM to better predict and manage late blight epidemics under variable environmental conditions, aiming to improve pest management strategies and enhance food security in tropical regions.
