Texas Agrilife does some really interesting things. Great resource for all things plants in Texas. They even have a relatively cheap soil analysis program that both farmers and gardeners can use. Tests for heavy metals and many nutrients.
If you like roses, they did huge trials to find cultivars that grow well in a variety of soils and are drought, disease, and pest resistant. https://aggie-horticulture.tamu.edu/earthkindroses/cultivars/
