• Discusses principles, methodology and applications of transgenic technologies

About the Authors

Dr. Usha Kiran is working with Jamia Hamdard University, New Delhi. She is investigating the use of bioinformatic tools to study signalling modulators that are being used by plant cells to evoke protective cellular response, especially proline biosynthesis and degradation during stress conditions. She has published one book (Plant Biotechnology: Principles and Application) in the capacity of co-editor.

Dr. Malik Zainul Abdin is Professor of Biotechnology in Jamia Hamdard’s School of Chemical and Life Sciences, India. He obtained his B.S. from Aligarh Muslim University and his Ph.D. from the Indian Agricultural Research Institute. Professor Abdin specializes in plant biotechnology, plant-derived therapeutics, and phytopharmaceutical innovation. His work spans metabolic engineering, molecular genetics, and bioactive compound stabilization. He brings more than three decades of research and teaching experience to the project, and has edited six prior volumes, including Elsevier’s Transgenic Technology Based Value Addition in Plant Biotechnology.

Dr. Kamaluddin is an Associate Professor in the Department of Genetics and Plant Breeding at Banda University of Agriculture and Plant Technology. He is an author of 36 research articles, 3 review articles, 10 Book chapters and 2 Practical manuals. He also served as editor of the 2017 book "Plant Biotechnology: Principles and Applications".
