Research Interest
- Drought stress studies in rice to identify genes and QTLs that govern tolerance using different approaches such as structured esp, bi-parental and multi-parental mapping populations and genome-wide association mapping, integrating eQTLs with phenotyping; development and use of SNP markers or assays for mapping traits in rice and other mandate crops of the institute; use of EMS mutant resources for functional genomics in rice; structural genomics in crop plants
