My teaching interested ranged from plant biotechnology, Plant breeding and Genetics and Crop Physiology. At present i handled 7 courses in B.Sc., (Agri) specifically ABT 301 Applied Biotechnology (1+1), PBG 301 Principles and Methods of Plant Breeding (1+1), PBG101 Introduction to Agricultural Botany (1+1), ABT 201 Principles of , CRP301 fundamental of Crop Physiology (2+1), AEX 301 Experiential Learning (0+5), PRJ 401 Project Work (0+4), and 2 courses for Diploma (Agri), CAG A22 Commercial Agriculture (0+2) and AGB A21 Breeding of Field Crops (1+1). I had publications in 11 national and 4 international papers in pre-reviewed journals.
AWARDS AND MEDAL RECEIVED
I received BRNS-SRF during the year 2012- 2014 under the project Principal investigator Ram Professor (PB&G), Centre for Plant Breeding and Genetics, Agricultural College and Research Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore. I received various award in different societies in th
EDUCATION
I did my UG at agricultural college and research institute, Killikulam, PG at Annamalai University, then I completed Ph.D. in Plant Breeding and Genetics as a student senior Research Fellow in the BRNS project work on “Reducing Raffinose Family Oligosaccharides (RFOs) through induced mutagenesis in Blackgram (Vignamungo L. Hepper)”. under the guidance of Dr. S. Ganashram (project investigated), Professor and head, Department of PGR, TNAU, Coimbatore, during 2011-2014. This project was funded by Department of Atomic Energy, BARC, and Mumbai. I summited my Ph.D. thesis entitled “Studies on induced mutagenesis and identification of Low Raffinose Family Oligosaccharides and Detection of Candidate Gene in Blackgram [VignaMungo (L.) Hepper]”. Under the guidance of Dr. G. Nallathambi, Professor (PB&G), Centre for Plant Breeding and Genetics, Agricultural College and Research institute, TamilNadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore.

Oligosaccharides are important component of urdbean in terms of metabolizable energy for monogastric animals and human. Sucrose, raffinose, stachyose and verbasecose are the four main oligosaccharides present in urdbean. Out of the four, only sucrose is nutritionally useful. When raffinose stachyose and verbascose are fermented by microbes present in the gut, the results are flatulence and discomfort, which ultimately lead to poor weight gain. The objectives of this work were to establish to identify low raffinose family oligosaccharide (RFO) and Low phytic acid (LPA) in macro mutants of TNAUCo (Bg) 6. The seeds of TNAUCo (Bg) 6 were treated with gamma rays (200Gy and 250Gy) EMS (15mM and 20mM). The frequency and spectrum of macro mutants different dose/concentration, number of chlorophyll mutants and Macro mutants observed. Chlorophyll mutants and viable mutants calculated based on the biological damage. The spectrum of chlorophyll mutants (Chlorina, Xantha, Albino and Viridis) and viable mutants (Tall and erect, dwarf, spreading, compact and bushy, crinkled and leathery, small leaf, big and broad leaf, narrow leaf, sterile, non flowering, pod and seed mutants) were observed in both generation. The spectrum of chlorophyll mutants increased with the decreased in dose of mutagen and increased with lower concentration. Total of 22 and 102 macro mutants were isolated from gamma ray and EMS treatments. Compare to all treatment 15mM of EMS treatments were establish more efficient in causing less biological injure and inducing highest amount of mutations. The total of 124 macro mutant three Low Verbascose mutant M2-F58 (0.06 mg/g), M2-F117 (0.13 mg/g) of 15mM, M2-F27 of 20mM (0.13 mg/g) and one low Phytate mutant in M2 -F37 of 15mM EMS (0.02 mg/g) were selected.
