My research covers the area of interaction of light in vital functioning of plants. Yield and development of specific trait is the ultimate goal of my research especially in area of gene transformation. There are two ways to achieve yield goal via transformation of insect resistant gene like Cry1Ac or to increase the physiological efficiency of plants via genetical modification. The latter methodology was adopted as done by Thiele et al in potato. Here, the same methodology was adopted in improving the physiology of cotton plants by transforming it with Phy B gene to enhance photosynthetic...

The impact of biopesticides (T.harzianum, Azadirachta indica, Biofertilizer; Humiphos) against root knot nematodes and its outcome on the growth of vegetables (Tomato, Lycopersicum esculentum., Brinjal, Solanum melongena and Turnip, Brassica rapa). Findings illustrated that T.harzianum showed best results on all vegetables as compared to other treatments. As it showed resistance against root knot nematodes and also most effective for the growth of vegetables than Azadirachta indica and biofertilizers (Humiphos) and no gall formation was observed under any concentration of Trichoderma...

In this study the role of epicuticular wax in transmission of CLCuV has been studied. Epicuticular waxes plays very important role in hindering the attachment of insects to the leaves. In this study the wax deficient mutant plants GaWM3 were used as experimental plants while Gossypium arboreum (786) were used as negatively controlled plants as it is reported that whitefly can not transmit virus in it and G. hirsutum (MNH-93) were taken as negative and positive control plants because it has severe viral attack in past. It is important to mention here that GaWM3 were produced in our laboratory...
