Prof Suprasanna Penna, was a Senior Scientist and Ex-Head of Nuclear Agriculture and Biotechnology Division, Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Mumbai, and a Professor at the Homi Bhabha National Institute, Mumbai. His research contributions are in crop biotechnology, radiation-induced mutagenesis, plant cell and tissue culture, genomics, and abiotic stress tolerance. He has made concerted efforts to apply radiation mutagenesis techniques in vegetatively propagated plants through collaborative research projects with several national and international bodies (IAEA, Vienna). He has published more than 300 publications and has edited special issues of international journals, and four books (two volumes on Salinity Responses and Tolerance in Plants, Volume 1; Targeting Sensory, Transport and Signalling Mechanisms; & Salinity Responses and Tolerance in Plants, Volume 2, Exploring RNAi, Genome Editing and Systems Biology- 2018, on Plant-Metal Interactions-2019, Plant nutrition and food security 2021).Prof. S Mohan Jain is an Adjunct Professor, Consultant and plant biotechnologist, Department of Agricultural Sciences, University of Helsinki, Helsinki, Finland. He was awarded Nobel Peace Prize, in commemoration the awarding to IAEA of the Nobel Peace Prize for 2005; also, former consultant to IAEA, the European Union, The Government of Grenada, Iranian date palm Company and the Egyptian Government. He has been involved in in vitro culture, nuclear applications in breeding for the improvement of both vegetatively and seed propagated plants; published over 175 papers in peer reviewed in international journals, book chapters, and conference proceedings. He has edited 65 books in collaboration with international well reputed researchers on In vitro haploid production, somatic embryogenesis, genetic diversity and erosion, biodiversity and conservation, advances in plant breeding, protocols for somatic embryogenesis, date palm biotechnology, ornamentaland medicinal plants.
