Research Interest
To understand the molecular biology of defense mechanisms in Brassica juncea against fungal pathogens (Alternaria brassicae in particular), to isolate and characterize defense genes and their promoters, to study signal transduction pathways for regulation of defense genes and isolation of upstream regulatory genes eg., NPR1 and WYRKY factors and to develop Brassica juncea transgenics with defense genes to improve resistance against fungi. Also working towards isolation of pathogen-inducible promoters and their characterization.
