• Research Interests (300 words)

  During my Masters program, i did research entitled Effect of Lead nitrate (a heavy metal) and Kinetin (a hormone) on external and internal morphology of Brassica campestris.
  My Ph.D. research was focused on Plant Transformation Studies. It involves Plant Tissue Culture (PTC) as a prerequisite technique. PTC is a technique used to produce new plants from any part (root, stem, shoot, leaves) of a parent plant. This technique is used to study/improve
  i: the growth and development of plants
  ii: the effect of environmental changes on the plants morphology and physiology
  iii: plants and microbes interactions
  iv: the traits of plants
  As a teacher, i used to teach the following courses to under-graduate/master�s students
  1: Plant Anatomy
  2: Cell and Molecular Biology
  3: Microbial and Molecular Genetics

Ok. So, you are going to record responses in mustard seedlings/plants after using different type of water i.e. salt or sugar rich and simple water (as a control group). What is your hypothesis/prediction? Do you assume that water having high salt or sugar may influence plant growth differentially than simple water? Which one will be better for plant growth?
