Andrea R. Gschwend studies plant and animal genomes to understand how new genes and traits arise and evolve over time, with particular focus on grapevines (Vitis), rice (Oryza), and fruit flies (Drosophila). This work combines genome sequencing and comparative genomics to trace how wild and domesticated species diverge and how organisms develop insect resistance or other adaptive traits. Prospective students would likely engage in computational genome analysis alongside comparative and evolutionary genetics.
