🧬 Research Focus

Research focuses on Genomic Data Analysis, specifically the detection of Cry genes in Bt cotton using AI/ML techniques. Bt cotton contains insecticidal Cry genes derived from Bacillus thuringiensis; detecting and characterising these genes at the genomic level has significant implications for agricultural biosafety, crop improvement, and regulatory compliance in Indian agriculture.
