She qualified in JRF-NTS, SRF-NTS, and ARSB NET in Fruit Science. She also received awards for paper presentation awards for research work from reputed international and national societies. She has published 25 research papers, 12 book chapters, several popular articles and 2 books under production with reputed journals, magazines and publishers. She serves on the editorial boards of well-known publishers. She has also published three patents, two copyright and two design patent was awarded by the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Government of India. She is a lifelong member of many reputable organizations as well. She also contributed in the prestigious United Nations 6th meeting of COP 11 on Cartagena Protocol on biosafety and 11th meeting of COP 11 to the Convention on Biological Diversity in Hyderabad, India. She received certificate of appreciation for her experience in Events and Conference Service Management, Protocol understanding and communication with numerous delegates and organizations from the Ministry of Environment and Forest, Government of India. Her research work focuses on fruit breeding, biotechnology, tissue culture, abiotic stress management, and mutation breeding in fruit crops. She explores the area of genomics, metabolomics, genome editing, and the implication of artificial intelligence in fruit crops.
Dr. Kuldeep Pandey is currently working as an Assistant Professor (Fruit Science) in the Department of Fruit science, College of Horticulture & Forestry, Acharya Narendra Deva University of Agriculture & Technology, Kumarganj, Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh, India. Earlier, he worked as Subject Matter Specialist in Horticulture (Pomology) at the Farm Science Centre in Saraiya, Muzaffarpur, RPCAU, Bihar, India. His research work focuses on Breeding, Biotechnology, Tissue Culture and Production technology for fruit crops. He is very keen to explore the areas of Climate resilience agriculture, Transgenic technology and effect of climate change on fruit crops. He has developed the world's first ever mango in planta transformation protocol. Dr. Pandey has qualified in JRF-NTS, IARI-SRF and ARSB NET in Fruit Science. He has been awarded prestigious DST-SERB, ITS-International Travel Support to attend International Mango Symposium, at Malaga, Spain in 2023. He has received Chancellors Gold Medal in the undergraduate programme (2015), National Level Gold Medal for Quiz Competition in the 19th ICAR-AGRIUNIFEST at SDAU, Sardarkurshinagar, Gujrat, Best M.Sc. Thesis Award (2019) in the International Seminar on Environmental Issues and Challenges in the 21st Century, sponsored by DST New Delhi, India, and Best Research Scholar Award (2019) by ATEDS, U. S. Nagar, Uttarakhand, India. He contributed 12 research papers, six book chapters, and several popular articles which have been published in reputed journals and magazines.
Faheem Ahmad is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Botany at the Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh-India. He is the editor of three books and has published over 70 articles and book chapters. He has more than 15 years of experience in plant sciences, and his research focuses on plant stress management via a sustainable approach and understanding complex plant-pathogen interactions for the development of value-added and bio-based products. The long-term objective of Ahmad's lab research is to enhance understanding of the metabolomic response of host plants to pathogens, including plant-parasitic nematodes, via analytical approach and to use this knowledge to provide new resources for reducing crop yield losses. He is an associate editor of the Journal of Plant Diseases and Protection (Springer) and an Academic Editor of Peer J-Life & Environment. He has received several fellowships and awards, including the NRF, TSRO Young Scientist, SERB-DST Young Scientist, and TUBITAK foreign researcher award. He is a Fellow of the International Society for Development and Sustainability and Bose Science Society. He has supervised PhD and Postgraduate students. Currently, 03 PhD and 02 Postgraduate students are working under his supervision.
Dr. Chandra Shekhar Seth is an Associate Professor at the Department of Botany, University of Delhi, New Delhi- 110007, Delhi, India. He obtained his M.Sc. degree in Botany from Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi (U.P.) in 2003 and Ph.D. degree in Botany from University of Lucknow (U.P.) in 2008. He currently teaches the course papers naming Plant physiology and Biochemistry, Topics in Plant Physiology and Biochemistry, Algae, Environment and Human Welfare at postgraduate level, and Phytohormones assisted abiotic stress management in plants at Ph.D. level. His major research interest area includes how various phytohormones particularly Salicyclic acid (SA), Jasmonic acid (JA), and Nitric Oxide (NO) mitigate the heavy metals (HMs) and salinity induce toxicity in plants, photosynthesis and nitrogen metabolism under abiotic stress, and role of nanomaterials in mitigating the HMs and salt stresses in plants. Oxidative stress and tolerance mechanism via antioxidants and phytochelatins, phytoremediation of HMs, potential use of algae as biofuels, nutrients and pigments are other important interesting area of his work. He is the fellow of two prestigious societies naming Fellow of the Academy of Environmental Biology (FAEB) Lucknow-226020 (U.P.) India, and Fellow Society for Plant Research (FSPR) Meerut-250110, UP, India. He has been the Life members of ISCA (The Indian Science Congress Association) Kolkata-700017, India, ISEB (International Society of Environmental Botanist) Lucknow-226001 (U.P.), AEB (The Academy of Environmental Biology) Lucknow-226020 (U.P.), India, ISPM (International Society of Plant Morphologists), New Delhi-110007, India, and DUBS (Delhi University Botanical Society) New Delhi-110007, India. He has already guided more than 25 M.Sc. dissertation, 04 M. Phil, 03 Ph.D. students, and is guiding 06 more Ph.D. students currently in his focused research areas. He has published many peer reviewed excellent research papers, review papers, and book chapters related to this field. He is an internationally recognized reviewer for many journals as well.
