Research Abstract |
We have analysed samples of wild and cultivated taro from all the fieldwork regions (2011-2013, present project), in addition to older samples collected in previous years from across Asia and the Pacific (1984 and later). A total of two hundred samples (approx.) were analysed, and the work has been successfully submitted as a PhD thesis (Ahmed 2013). Collaboration with the Institute of Ecology and Biological Resources (IEBR) in Hanoi has resulted in two papers so far (Ahmed et al. 2013, Matthews and Nguyen, 2014). Papers based on this work have also been presented at a number of conferences (see below). Some of the work has been reviewed in a book (Matthews 2014). Together with Dr NGUYEN Van Du project member, IEBR, Vietnam) I was co-organiser for the 11th International Aroid Conference, Hanoi, Dec. 11-13, 2013 (sponsored by the International Aroid Society in association with the Institute for Ecological and Biological Research, Hanoi).
