Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Hitendra Kumar Patel"
- Hitendra Kumar Patel's recent research focuses on improving rice resilience to biotic and abiotic stresses, emphasizing traits such as lodging resistance and disease resistance through genetic and physiological studies.
- Key findings include the identification of a strong culm trait that significantly enhances lodging resistance, alongside the fine mapping of candidate genes that confer resistance to bacterial blight, a major threat to rice productivity.
- Additionally, his work explores the mechanisms of bacterial pathogens, particularly Xanthomonas oryzae, including the role of secreted enzymes in virulence and the signaling pathways involved in plant immune responses, contributing to strategies for crop protection and improvement.
