  1. Impacts of climate change take a toll on Andean potato farmers: participative mapping for the evaluation of potato diversity in the Andes by Shaw, Alison, Kristjanson, Patricia M.

    Published 2013
    “…More than 10 years of Geographic Information System (GIS) mapping reveals that farmers have ascended the Andes 150 meters during the past 30 years to escape agricultural diseases and pests due to increasing temperatures. …”

  2. Ecotypic differentiation under farmers' selection: Molecular insights into the domestication of Pachyrhizus Rich. ex DC. (Fabaceae) in the Peruvian Andes by Deletre, M., Soengas, B., Vidaurre, P.J., Meneses, R.I., Delgado Vasquez, O., Ore Balbin, I., Santayana, M., Heider, B., Sorensen, M.

    Published 2017
    “…The comparison of different evolutionary scenarios for the diversification history of yam beans in the Andes using approximate Bayesian computation suggests that Pachyrhizus ahipa and Pachyrhizus tuberosus share a progenitor-derivative relationship, with environmental factors playing an important role in driving selection for divergent ecotypes. …”

  3. Medicinal Plants for Rich People vs. Medicinal Plants for Poor People: A Case Study from the Peruvian Andes by Corroto, Fernando, Rascon, Jesús, Barboza Castillo, Elgar, Macía, Manuel J.

    Published 2022
    “…We studied the small city of Chachapoyas (~34,000 inhabitants) in the northern Peruvian Andes. We divided the city into three areas according to the socio-economic characteristics of its inhabitants: city center (high), intermediate area (medium), and city periphery (low). …”

  4. Traditional potato tillage systems in the Peruvian Andes impact bacterial diversity, evenness, community composition, and functions in soil microbiomes by García Serquén, Aura Liz, Chumbe Nolasco, Lenin Dimitriv, Navarrete, Acacio Aparecido, Girón Aguilar, Rita Carolina, Gutiérrez Reynoso, Dina Lida

    Published 2024
    “…Here, ecological and functional aspects of the bacterial community were analyzed based on soil samples from two traditional tillage systems: 'chiwa' (minimal tillage) and 'barbecho' (full tillage), in the Huanuco region of the Peruvian central Andes. Similar soil bacterial community composition was shown for minimal tillage system, but it was heterogeneous for full tillage system. …”
