Plant Breeding and Genetics Student with a strong background in genetics, genomics, and molecular biology. Over 2 years of laboratory and hands-on plant breeding experience. Skilled in fieldwork, phenotypic trait quantification, and the application of plant breeding principles. Expertise in statistical software for data analysis and visualization. Strong analytical and solving skills. Proven ability to work independently and collaboratively in team settings.
The present investigation entitled “Genetic diversity analysis of 3k rice genotypes based on yield traits and reproductive heat tolerance” was carried out with hundred genotypes of rice with a view to identify the heat tolerant genotypes,
study the nature and magnitude of variability, degree of association between yield and its components, direct and indirect effects of the different characters on yield, genetic divergence for selection of parents for hybridization programs.
The identified heat tolerant lines will improve yields to farmer by 50% in heat stress conditions.
Involved in crop production, protection management practices in major crops like Rice, Maize, Groundnut, Onion and Cotton.
