CAREER SUMMARY

I am a highly innovative, diligent, and career-oriented research scholar. I hold a Ph.D.

degree in Plant Pathology, looking for stronger research career advancement.

Recently I completed my Post Doctoral Research fellowship , at Shenyang

Agricultural University China. My research area is dedicated to the Bio-control of

crop diseases. Mainly focused on novel, Natural Macro-compounds, and Biofabricated

nano compounds from (Microbes and Plants) with their action

mechanism and disease management strategy. Plant disease diagnosis Plant Pathology,

Plant disease management, Plant-microbe interaction, Plant Physiological disease

mechanism, Molecular pathology of plants. Gene editing of bacteria, for the production

of active compounds and proteins. Engineering and optimization of the fermentation

process for the production of Secondary metabolites from microbes for

pharmacological and agrotechnological applications. Purification, separation,

identification, and structure elucidation of novel extracted natural compounds. Fungal

disease (Rhizoctonia solani, Fusarium oxysporum, Magnaporthie grisea.etc.). Tobacco

mosaic virus disease management by microbe-based silver nanoparticles. Identification

of microbes, by chemotaxonomy, physiological, morphological parameters, and

molecular approaches.

A highly multidisciplinary approach to these problems is taken encompassing

variety of chromatographic techniques especially HPLC, HPTLC, GC/MS, VLC, FC,

LC- MS, 1D (1H and 13C) & 2D NMR (COSY, HSQC and HMBC) spectroscopic

techniques, X-ray diffraction (XRD) , Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) ,

Electron transmission microscopy,Con-focal laser scanning microscopy, PCR,

Electrophoresis Bio-informatics, microbiological assays method apply.
