Origen y Antecedentes
El grupo de Genómica en Mejora Vegetal se fundó en 2008 con la incorporación de Antonio J. Monforte al IBMCP como Científico Titular CSIC, quien realizó previamente sus Tesis Doctoral en el IVIA, posteriormente una estancia postdoctoral en la Universidad de Cornell y fue investigador durante más de 8 años en el IRTA (ahora fusionado con el CRAG). Se inicia entonces una línea de trabajo sobre la aplicación de herramientas genómicas en mejora genética que no existía previamente en el IBMCP. Las primeras personas en trabajar en el grupo fueron los doctorandos Gerardo Sánchez y Walter Barrantes, la investigadora postdoctoral Aurora Díaz y la técnico de laboratorio Soledad Casal que asientan la línea de investigación. En 2014 se incorpora Carlos Romero como Científico Titular CSIC. Carlos había realizado su Tesis Doctoral en el IBMCP, integrándose posteriormente en el Dpto. de investigación de la empresa de semillas Rijk Zwaan S. A. y más tarde en el IVIA donde fue investigador durante más de 12 años. El grupo se encuentra actualmente consolidado con las incorporaciones de las investigadoras posdoctorales Clara Pons y Maria José Gonzalo.
Intereses científicos
Nuestro rincipal objetivo es la aplicación de la genómica para la identificación implicados en caracteres de interés agronómico, fundamentalmente hortícolas. Nuestro cuerpo teórico se entronca en la genética de poblaciones, genética cuantitativa, evolución y teoría de la mejora que integramos con la agronomía, biología molecular y genómica. Generamos conocimiento y herramientas útiles para el desarrollo de nuevos cultivares que respondan a las necesidades actuales del sector, así como básico para comprender mejor las bases genéticas y moleculares, de la variación fenotípica. Tenemos un especial interés es descubrir variabilidad genética “oculta” en especies silvestres para mejorar productividad, resistencia a enfermedades y estreses abióticos, calidad de fruto.
Las herramientas básicas que utilizamos son los marcadores moleculares, empezamos con RFLPs, seguimos con SSRs, SNPs y actualmente genotipado de alto rendimiento y secuenciación masiva. Nuestras estrategias incluyen el desarrollo de mapas genéticos, análisis de QTLs y desarrollo de líneas de introgresión o QTL-NILs.
Los intereses concretos en los que estamos trabajando son:
– Bases genéticas de la morfología del fruto en melón
– Control genético de la domesticación en melón
– Barreras reproductivas interespecíficas en el género Cucumis
– Sistema de autoincompatibilidad gametofítica en Prunus
– Caracterización y valorización de las variedades de tomate tradicionales europeas (TRADITOM)
– Tolerancia a altas temperaturas en tomate (TOMGEN y HARNESTOM)
