The document summarizes research being conducted on Warburgia ugandensis, an important agroforestry tree in East Africa. The research aims to (1) identify genes and genomic regions related to active compounds in W. ugandensis, (2) develop a marker system for selecting genotypes with high anti-malarial effectiveness, and (3) understand the effects of environment on anti-malarial phenotype stability. The researcher is using genomic DNA and RNA approaches, including PCR with degenerate primers and methyl filtration, to isolate candidate genes and differentially expressed sequences for anti-malarial compounds. Initial results show most compounds are related to triterpenes, not sesquiterpenes as expected. The researcher
