Dedicated and ambitious researcher with PhD in Crop Genetics and Breeding from OCRI-CAAS, where I specialized in the application of phytochemistry, plant physiology, molecular biology, and multi-omics to improve crop yield, quality, and stress resistance of sesame. During my doctoral studies, I have conducted extensive research on the genetic basis of phytochemical variations in oil crops, focusing on identifying key metabolites, genes, and pathways involved in the biosynthesis of metabolites. My research led to the development of novel molecular markers for improved oil crops breeding, mainly quality traits. A high research interest in genetic improvement and breeding for high-value traits, stress-tolerant, nutritional, and medicinal sensitive breeding through excellent current and futuristic knowledge of metabolomics, functional genomics, transcriptomics, and molecular biology, mainly GWAS. Currently, as a postdoctoral researcher I am working in cassava molecular stress breeding related to stress physiology involving metabolomics, transcriptomics, proteomic profiling and transgenic cultivar development
