Article Synopsis
- The American tropics are rich in plant diversity but underutilized by breeding programs due to inadequate funding and fragmented research teams.
- A survey of 52 Agrosavia researchers revealed weak connectivity, with predominantly male leaders holding M.Sc. degrees but lacking access to vital resources for effective breeding.
- Five strategies were proposed to enhance collaboration and impact, focusing on gender equity, sustainable food security initiatives, stronger ties between germplasm banks and breeders, prioritizing neglected species, and creating collaborative project spaces.
