I'm doing some [http://extension.referata.com/wiki/Página_principal evaluations for disease resistance in tomatoes], with 38 varieties growing so far at IKIAM.  I have seed for another 80 varieties, seed for 50 varieties of peppers, and much more seed besides.

Currently, I am working on a [http://extension.referata.com/wiki/Página_principal Tomato Project] with some students at IKIAM University, in Tena, Ecuador.  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.
