Current External Projects:
  1. First report of Fusarium proliferatum causing sheath rot disease in rice in India.
  2. First time designed and validated the genome specific HV-SSR markers to assess the genetic diversity of Sarocladium oryzae.
  3. First time reported the population structure and genetic diversity of Indian Bipolaris oryzae isolates was using genome-specific SSR markers.
