About
Muhammad Azhar Nadeem is working as an Associate
Professor of plant breeding and genetics at Department of Biotechnology, Faculty of Science, Mersin University, Mersin, 33343, Turkiye. His PhD thesis was
entitled “Identification of Genomic Regions for Various
Agronomic Traits in Turkish Common Bean Germplasm with
Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS).” He is currently
engaged in research activities involving genetic diversity
assessment, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to
identify genomic regions, and their validation through KASP
assay for marker-assisted breeding. Dr. Nadeem is focusing on
performing GWAS in legumes, especially in common bean,
lentil, and other legumes to identify genomic regions
associated with agronomic, mineral elements, cooking, and quality traits that will be helpful for
the biofortification of these crops. He has more than 80 SCI/SCIE publications in world-
renowned and prestigious journals and also published more than 10 book chapters on important
aspects of molecular genetics about plant species. He serves as an editorial board member of
several international journals. Dr. Nadeem is an active member of various COST actions as well.
Dr. Nadeem was the lead editor for Springer book ;Legumes Biofortification and a co-editor of 3 books published by Springer Nature
for two other books published by the Springer group.
