Autorenporträt

Ashutosh Singh, PhD, is an Assistant Professor at the Centre for Advanced Studies on Climate Change at Dr. Rajendra Prasad Central Agricultural University, Bihar, India. He has more than eight years of experience in different areas of plant biotechnology aspects, including plant stress biology, pollen-based selection, molecular marker studies, etc. Currently, he is working on transcriptomic profiling and the development of gene-based markers for pollen selection mediated reproductive stage heat stress tolerance in maize. He has published more than a dozen research papers in various journals of international repute, as well as book chapters and popular articles. Saurabh Pandey, PhD, is Assistant Professor at the Department of Agriculture in Guru Nanak Dev University, Punjab, India. He has eight years of experience in plant biotechnology aspects, such as plant stress biology, plant virus interactions, abiotic stresses, biofortification, molecular marker studies, and metabolism related to the tomato and rice crop. Currently, he is working on the introduction and biotic stress management of unconventional crops like banana and apple. He has published research papers in journals of international repute as well as articles in magazines and periodicals. Dr. Pandey has authored many book chapters on molecular markers, genomics, plant breeding, and plant molecular virology, catering to the needs of modern agriculture research.
