Sustainable Sericulture in India

Soumen Saha is currently Assistant Professor of Sericulture at Raiganj University, Raiganj, India. He obtained his M.Sc. from the University of Mysore, India, and received his Ph.D. in Plant tissue culture and Molecular Biology from University of Kalyani, West Bengal, India. He completed his postdoctoral training at the University of Kalyani, Kalyani, studying Plant Secondary metabolites and genomic studies. He has received a prestigious UGC National Fellowship from Govt. of India during his Ph.D. and post-doc program. He has published more than 90 peer-reviewed papers and edited 03 books on plant Biotechnology including 01 with springer. He has also engaged in different research projects as Principal and Co-Investigator. His specializations include molecular biology, silkworm breeding, genome sequencing, plant tissue culture, bioinformatics, secondary metabolites, and marker-assisted breeding research. He is also a reviewer of several national and international journals.Raju Mondal (final year Ph.D. student, Department of Botany, Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi, India-221005) Scientist-C, CSB-Central Sericultural Germplasm Resources Centre (CSB-CSGRC), Central Silk Board, Hosur, Tamil Nadu-635109, India, working in the area of Plant Science, especially the cytological aspect of mulberry genetic resources. His research interests focus on polyploidy, with a particular interest in bioinformatics, molecular biology, and genetics. More than 25 peer-reviewed international publications have been published by him. He has also engaged in different research projects as Principal and Co-Investigator.
