Dr. Rupesh Deshmukh currently working as Associate Professor at the Department of Biotechnology, Central University of Haryana, Mahendergarh, India. He earned his Ph.D. in agricultural biotechnology from SRTMU, Nanded, India. During his postdoctoral research in Quebec, Canada, Dr. Deshmukh delved into the molecular mechanisms underpinning the uptake of silicon, a beneficial metalloid, in plants. His pioneering work included the identification of metalloid transporter genes in various plant species, showcasing the power of whole-genome sequencing in gene discovery and its subsequent application in breeding programs. Subsequently, he pursued another postdoctoral research opportunity at Missouri University, USA, where he contributed to research focused on enhancing abiotic stress tolerance in plants. His wide-ranging interests in plant science encompass computational biology, gene identification methodologies such as QTL mapping and GWAS, as well as the elucidation of molecular mechanisms through the integration of omics approaches. Dr. Deshmukh possesses an impressive publication record, with more than one hundred fifty articles published in esteemed journals. He has also lent his expertise as a Visiting Professor at University Laval, Canada, to a project aimed at improving biotic and abiotic stress resilience in plants through genomics interventions. Currently, his research group is actively engaged in translational genomics endeavours centred around rice and tomato.
