Metals constitute crucial components of key enzymes and proteins in plants. They are important for the proper growth and development of plants. In turn, plants serve as sources of essential elements for humans and animals. Studies of their physiological effects on plants metabolism have led to the identification of crucial genes and proteins controlling metal uptake and transport, as well as the sensing and signaling of metal stresses. Plant-Metal Interactions sheds light on the latest development and research in analytical biology with respect to plant physiology. More importantly, it showcases the positive and negative impacts of metals on crop plants growth and productivity.
Dr. Penna Suprasanna is a Senior Scientist & Head of Plant Stress Physiology and Biotechnology Group, Nuclear Agriculture and Biotechnology Division, Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Mumbai, and is the Professor, Homi Bhabha National Institute, Department of Atomic Energy, Mumbai. Dr. Suprasanna made significant contributions to crop biotechnology
Dr. Ashish Kumar Srivastava is presently working as Scientific Officer in Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Mumbai. His research is focussed on developing strategies for enhancing crop resilience towards different abiotic stresses. The stimulatory potential of thiourea (a reactive-oxygen species scavenger) has been demonstrated for enhancing stress tolerance and crop productivity through lab and small-scale field experiments, and by conducting multi-location field trials at salt- and drought-affected fields of Rajasthan. A small-scale technology has been developed for increasing yield and reducing arsenic accumulation from rice grains. Besides, thiourea has been used as a chemical probe for delineating redox-regulatory components of stress tolerance. He has proposed a bifurcative model of thiourea action wherein redox homeostasis acts as "central" point to regulate gene-expression through miRNA and hormones. To summarize, he is employing the combination of physiology, molecular biology and biotechnology to understand crops behavior under stress and develop suitable strategy to minimize stress-induced yield losses in different crop plants. He has more than 40 research and review articles and book chapters to his credit. He has been awarded Young Scientist Award of National Academy of Sciences, India (NASI), Allahabad in 2018, Young Scientist Medal from Indian National Science Academy (INSA) in 2014 and Young Scientist Award from Department of Atomic Energy (DAE) in 2014. He has also received President International Fellowship Award from Chinese Academy of Sciences, China in 2016 and and EMBO Short term Fellowship in 2011.
