Applied Biodiversity
Main focus of the research has been in the areas of Applied Biodiversity using an integrative approach that has helped in tapping bio-resources from wilderness to mining 'omics'. Of particular interest are the members of the family Zingeberaceae and certain non-edible oil plants occurring in North East India and in particular Assam. The work has laid foundation for news ways to detect, authenticate, protect and use biodiversity.
