Asim MasoodDr. Masood, Assistant Professor of Botany at Aligarh Muslim University, is presently working on stress physiology of plants and its regulation through internal factors including phytohormones and nutrients. His main area of research is to analyse thestress-induced
responses in plants to heavy-metal accumulation and toxicity, mineral
nutrient availability in the soil and also the role of phytohormones in
regulating the nutrient status of cells and their synergistic effect in
alleviating heavy-metal toxicity. His main findings have been reported in
journals of repute, including Plant, Cell & Environment, Journal of
Experimental Botany, Environmental and Experimental Botany,
Photosynthetica, Plant Signalling and Behaviour, Journal of Plant
Physiology and others. Read More Read Less
