About

I am a Ph.D. in Zoology. I got Ph.D. degree in 2001 and my research area is 'Integred Pest Management'. I am involving in developing biopesticides to control agricultural pests, stored product insects and vector mosquitoes, studying insect diversity and isolation of bioactive compounds from plant extracts. To date (May 2022) I have published 142 research papers and guided 19 Ph.D. students. My long term objective is to develop low-cost, potential and ecofriendly method(s) to control vector mosquitoes, stored product pests and agricultural pests in food crops.
