Biography
Her Awards includes: ASPEE Gold Medal for first rank at M.Sc. 1987 (Konkan Krishi Vidyapeeth, Dapoli) and Winner of Agharkar Gold Medal for Ph.D. Thesis 1992 (Maharashtra Association for Cultivation of Science, Pune). Her research interests encompass biodiversity in general and use of wild species in crop improvement programme in particular.A compilation on morphological and taxonomical information of grapes and its wild relatives has been recently published (publisher: ICAR, New Delhi); it will serve as a reference book for researchers who are interested in grape improvement programme. Besides this, she is associated with another project on wheat entitled ”Generating wheat germplasm with drought/heat tolerance using AB genome genetic diversity” – An international project of Generation Challenge program (GCP) funded by CGIAR.
Research Interest
