Genomic Potential and Climate Resilience of <em>Agave angustifolia</em> Haworth in Raicilla Production

2026-07-03

Abstract excerpt

Agave angustifolia Haw. is one of the primary sources for the production of mezcals such as raicilla and tuxca in western Mexico. In Jalisco, Agave angustifolia evolved from being a pre-Hispanic ritual and food resource (200–1500 CE) to becoming the primary basis for the 16th-century vino mezcal, the precursor to all mezcals, such as raicilla and tequila. This review synthesizes current genomic, epigenetic, and me...
