About
I am a plant Biologist working in the area of Genetic manipulation of plants for stress alleviation and value addition. My research is focused on understanding the mechanism involved in abiotic and biotic stress tolerance in plants & studying modulation of gene expression in various systems applying the transgenic approach for functional validation of potential genes that help combating stress tolerance to plants and understanding the molecular and biochemical circuitry operative under stress conditions. This approach is applied to develop futuristic crops that can secure the food and nutritional demand of future
