Mukesh Shivran

About

Dr. Mukesh Shivran holds a Ph.D. in Horticulture (Fruit Science) from ICAR-Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi. His doctoral research focused on rootstock-mediated changes in mango cultivars, while his master's work explored molecular aspects of shelf-life in mango. He has received prestigious ICAR-JRF and ICAR-SRF fellowships for his postgraduate and doctoral studies.
Dr. Shivran's research interests include rootstock-scion interactions in fruit crops, enhancement of fruit shelf life through physiological and horticultural interventions, and characterization of bioactive compounds in fruits. He has authored peer-reviewed publications in impact journals such as Agronomy, Plos One, Gene Expression Patterns, and National Academy Science Letters. His contributions span from gene expression studies to molecular marker development in fruit crops, particularly mango and citrus.
Dr. Shivran is committed to advancing fruit science research to improve fruit quality, productivity, and postharvest longevity.
