Research Interest:
My research interests focus on crop genomics, tissue culture, genetic engineering, and genome editing, with two primary goals.
1. To study the genetic mechanisms that govern the expression of crucial traits in crops, with the aim of advancing research in plant functional genomics and its applications in crop improvement.
2. Looking into the genetic processes that control the development of stem cells, the growth of meristems, somatic embryogenesis, and regeneration potential in plants.
