Research Area of Interest
- Biochemistry and molecular studies of abiotic stress and its tolerance and its recovery in plants and Phytonanotechnology
- Currently my lab focus on abiotic stress tolerance and recovery study in crop plants (Metal stress-Cu, As, Cd, etc and water stress and its recovery in plant) and phytochemistry. We intended to understand physiology molecular biology of abiotic stress recovery and its relation with mineral nutrition in plants. In addition, green synthesis of nanomaterials, use of phytochemicals in biosynthesis of nanoparticles. My lab is involved in understanding the role of phyto synthesized nanoparticles (ZnO, Zn, Se etc) in abiotic stress tolerance and recovery mechanism in plant.
