Dr. Neto's research integrates plant genomics, evolutionary biology, and crop science to investigate adaptive mechanisms in plants. Her primary focus areas include weed genomics for sustainable agriculture, genetic architecture of flowering time evolution, and nutrient transport adaptations in challenging soil environments. This work addresses critical challenges in crop resilience and resource efficiency under environmental stress.

Recent publications demonstrate a cohesive research trajectory applying genomic and evolutionary approaches to agricultural problems. The 2024 weed genomics review establishes community priorities, the 2023 flowering time study examines population-level genetic variation, and the 2022 Science Advances paper reveals molecular adaptations for nutrient uptake. Collectively, these works emphasize translational genomics for crop improvement and weed management.
