This researcher focuses on plant breeding and genetics of crops important in tropical and semi-arid agriculture, especially peanut (groundnut) and finger millet. Work includes developing breeding strategies for hybridization, mapping genes linked to disease resistance and productivity traits, and improving nutritional quality (such as zinc and iron content) through agronomic and genetic approaches. Some publications also relate to maize breeding programs addressing disease resistance in Eastern Africa.
Publication output was higher around 2017-2018, declined to a low, steady rate of about 1-3 papers per year between 2019 and 2025, with a notable uptick projected for 2026.
