Graduate Research Assistant, Phd Student | Plant Sciences

Specialization: Crop Physiology and Stress Physiology (Row Crop), Cotton Phenotyping, Irrigation management

Overview

I am interested in learning more about drought stress and its impact on crop physiology. I want to have adequate knowledge on innovative technology (like irrigation monitoring sensors, Licor facilities, crop simulation models, and drones and see the phenotypic difference between the different cultivars of cotton, and crop management and its application times affect the yield). My ultimate goal is to work on food and fiber security.

Research Focus

Crop Physiology and Stress Physiology (particularly Cotton). Environment and Management Impact, Irrigation management, Smart Soil Water Sensor
