Dr. Mohammad Abass Ahanger is currently working as Assistant Professor at Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Yunnan, China. Dr. Ahanger completed his Postgraduate education in Botany from Jiwaji University, Gwalior, India in 2010 specializing in plant stress physiology and biochemistry. After receiving M Phil, Dr Ahanger completed his Ph D in 2016 from the same university. After working on allelopathic stress for another one year, Dr Ahanger was involved in teaching Plant Physiology and biochemistry to graduate student. Thereafter, he joined Northwest A&F University Yangling, China as post-doctoral fellow and worked on the phytohormone, mineral nutrient and nano material mediated abiotic stress tolerance in crop plants. Later Dr Ahanger joined Institute of Plant and Microbial Biology, Academia Sinica, Taiwan and worked on rice stress signalling. His main research interests are elucidation of tolerance mechanisms in plants for improved abiotic stress tolerance. He has published research in reputed national and international journals, and has edited books, and contributed book chapters to internationally published volumes. Dr Bhat is an Associate Professor, International Genome Centre, Jiangsu University, China. He also worked as Postdoctoral Fellow at State Key Laboratory for Crop Genetics and Germplasm Enhancement, Nanjing Agricultural University (June-2018 to November-2021). Dr. Bhat is recipient of Research Associateship at Council of Scientific and Industrial Research, Human Resource Development Group, CSIR Complex, PUSA, New Delhi in 2017 (2016-2018). He is mainly engaged in Plant Genetics, Molecular Breeding, Functional and Applied Genomics, and Computational Biology; In addition, he is engaged in Plant Stress Physiology, Signalling and Genetics particularly for the case of abiotic stresses including heavy metals/metalloids. He has published more than 80 papers in many well reputed SCI Journals serves as editor/Associate editor of journals including Frontiers in Genetics, Environmental Pollution, Functional Plant Biology, Biocell, Biomolecules and Physiologia Plantarum, as well as reviewer of many other SCI journals. Dr. Parvaiz Ahmad is working as Senior Assistant Professor at Department of Botany at Govt Degree College Pulwama, Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, India and also Visiting Scientist at King Saud University, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. He completed his post-graduate degree in Botany in 2000 at Jamia Hamdard, New Delhi, India. After receiving a Doctorate degree from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Delhi, India, he joined the International Centre for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, New Delhi, in 2007. His main research area is Stress Physiology and Molecular Biology. He has published more than 100 research papers in peer reviewed journals, and 50 book chapters.
