My mom has a picture of me staring intently at Petunias on Jones Beach at age 2, so I guess I've been a plant guy for 60 years or so. I grew my first seedlings in first grade, and have not stopped since then. I worked in the botanical greenhouse of the Bailey Hortorium at Cornell University for a few years. I wanted to be a farmer for a while, until I realized that I had dreadful allergies. | My mom has a picture of me staring intently at Petunias on Jones Beach at age 2, so I guess I've been a plant guy for 60 years or so.

The goal is to find the most disease resistant varieties (and perhaps breed with them) to find tomatoes that do not need greenhouse protection from rain-spread diseases. | + | Currently, I am working on a [http://extension.referata.com/wiki/Página_principal Tomato Project] with some students at IKIAM University, in Tena, Ecuador.
