Dr. Martin Ernesto Tiznado Hernández received a Ph.D. in Plant Molecular Biology at PURDUE University in 1999 under the advice of Professor Avtar K. Handa. Dr. Tiznado began to work at the Research Center for Food and Development in Hermosillo, Mexico. He is the head of the Plant Molecular Biology Laboratory. He has written 80 scientific manuscripts, 22 book chapters, and 20 review papers. He had published hundreds of gene sequences of the fruits mango, soursop, pitaya, tomato, and the fungi A. alternata. He belongs to Mexico's National Council of Humanities, Sciences, and Technologies. He teaches Plant Biochemistry, Plant tissue culture, and Plant Genetic Engineering. He collaborates with institutions in Mexico, Pakistan, Colombia, and the USA. His main line of research is the utilization of DNA recombinant technology to understand the mode of action of different treatments developed for fruits during postharvest, as well as the elucidation of different plant physiological phenomena. He is working to elucidate the molecular mechanism of plant cuticle biosynthesis in fruits using tools from the next-generation sequencing technology.
