Latest research from our lab showing the potential of gene editing in gene re-designing to alter rice response to phosphate deficiency! Rice phosphate transporter reduces the low phosphate response through jasmonate signaling academic.oup.com/pcp/article…

Rice phosphate transporter reduces the low phosphate response through jasmonate signaling

Abstract. Phosphorus (P) is an essential macronutrient for plant growth, and its deficiency severely limits crop productivity. The PHOSPHATE1 (PHO1) protei

Legumes are more susceptible to soil compaction! Happy to share our new review paper. Unearthing Root Response Mechanisms to Soil Compaction in Legumes - Ganotra - Plant, Cell & Environment - Wiley Online Library onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… @pandeybipink @smile61139312 @NIPGRsocial

Unearthing Root Response Mechanisms to Soil Compaction in Legumes

A comprehensive understanding of root adaptive strategies, root–microbe interactions, nutrient uptake, and mechanisms underlying soil compaction is pivotal for engineering stress-resilient legumes.

Delighted to get it published onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… in @ThePlantJournal We revealed the extranuclear mode of jasmonate perception in chickpea. Thanks to MKBhan Fellowship, my PhD guide @JGiriLab and all the co-authors for their contribution. @NABI_India @DBTIndia @NIPGRsocial

Dual localization of JA receptor, CaCOI2, explains JA perception dynamics in chickpea

Jasmonates (JAs) are known to regulate a wide range of biotic and abiotic stresses. Therefore, understanding JA perception and signaling is of great interest in different plants. Here, we have...

The traditional method of removing the weeds from cotton crops using bullocks is time consuming and very costly. Chemical herbicides are also expensive. We need such technology that can control weeds at low cost. #Biotechnogy

Dr. @JGiriLab at BRIC @NIPGRsocial has generated rice lines that demonstrate improved Pi uptake and grain yield, even in soils fertilized with lower phosphate levels. His team has employed an innovative approach by using CRISPR/Cas to eliminate the repressor binding site from the OsPHO1;2 gene's promoter.
