Pandey, Anamika
Dr. Anamika Pandey is currently working in the capacity of Assistant Professor at Department of Soil Science and Plant Nutrition, Faculty of Agriculture, Selcuk University, Turkey. She has handled a 1001 national project funded by The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TUBITAK) related to the determination of novel genes regulating boron toxicity tolerance in some of the Poaceae family species including wild wheat. She earned her PhD degree in biotechnology and her current research focuses on identifying the novel genes and transcriptional factors in wild wheat species that are responsible for making them tolerant towards different biotic and abiotic stress conditions. With a research experience of 16 years in plant molecular biology, she has published several articles in SCI indexed journals. She has edited and reviewed for different reputed journals such as PLOS Sustainability and Transformation, BMC Plant Biology, Agriculture, IJMS, Frontiers in Plant Science, Crop and Pasture Science, PlosOne etc.
