Dr. Tanvir-Ul-Hassan Dar PhD is presently working as an assistant professor at the School of Biosciences and Biotechnology, Baba Ghulam Shah Badshah University, Rajouri (Jammu & Kashmir). He completed his master’s degree in Biotechnology at the University of Kashmir, Srinagar, and obtained his M. Phil and Ph. D from the University of Delhi. Subsequently, he had one year of post-doctorate research training at the National Institute of Plant Genome Research (NIPGR), New Delhi.  Dr. Dar has five years of teaching experience at post-graduate level and is currently involved in supervision of M. Phil and Doctorate students. With specialization in polyploidy, he has acquired the necessary training and experience to carry out research in this field of biological sciences. He has published more than 15 research papers in peer-reviewed national and international journals; attended numerous seminars, conferences and workshops; and is a member of several important academic and scientific bodies. Reiaz Ul Rehman PhD – is currently an assistant professor at the Department of Bioresources, School of Biological Sciences, University of Kashmir and is actively involved in teaching master’s and integrated PhD students. He earned his master’s and PhD in Plant Biology at Hamdard University, New Delhi and has worked as a postdoctoral research fellow at the University of Louisville (Kentucky, USA), University of Salento (Lecce, Italy). He is a recipient of the prestigious Marie Curie International Incoming Fellowship (IIF) (Lisbon, Portugal). His research interests include characterization of the physiological and metabolic processes in underutilized crops challenged with stresses and he has published 40 research articles and one edited book.
