Most of my work has been devoted to the biology of rubber formation in plants, using guayule (Parthenium argentatum), a desert shrub, as the experimental system.

Domaine(s)
  • Caoutchouc
CONT

Jusqu'à présent, le caoutchouc naturel utilisé par l'industrie américaine provenait en grande partie de l'hévéa malaisien ou brésilien. Or, Parthenium argentatum (ou guayule), une plante trouvée au Mexique et dans le Sud-Ouest des États-Unis, pourrait bien devenir une nouvelle source de caoutchouc pour les industriels.
