Introduction
The GIPAG research group, linked to the Productive Transformation Network, has a history of 12 years in which it has participated in the development of research projects and in the development of products such as scientific articles, book chapters, courses, events, monographs, technological products and direction of undergraduate works. Recently, the group participated as a cooperator in the project entitled "Implementation of a certified center for the production of guadua seedlings - BPIN 2014000100043". Currently, researchers from this group are in the execution of the project "Strengthening capacities in R + D + I for regional development in the area of influence of the ITA, Valle del Cauca - BPIN 2020000100030". On the other hand,
On the other hand, the GIPAG group has experience in conducting field and greenhouse experiments in which the impact of nutrient availability on plant growth and development has been evaluated (DOI: 10.1016 / j. plantsci.2014.11.018). Additionally, members of the group have carried out analyzes of genetic and morphological diversity in a sorghum germplasm bank, using large volumes of molecular and morphological data. This with the purpose of evaluating the genetic components associated with the root growth of the plant using the association mapping methodology (GWAS) (DOI: 10.1093 / aob / mcx157). Too,
