Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Sweeta Manhas"
- Sweeta Manhas has contributed to understanding the impact of COVID-19 on fungal infections, particularly through the study “Spectrum of Mucormycosis Before and During COVID-19,” which highlights the dual role of glucocorticoids in managing COVID-19 while also increasing vulnerability to opportunistic infections.
- Her research on “Reactive Oxygen Species in Plants” delves into the role of ROS as both damaging by-products of metabolism and essential regulators of various biological processes, which is crucial for understanding plant responses to environmental stressors.
- In the article “Biochar as a tool for effective management of drought and heavy metal toxicity,” Manhas addresses how biochar can enhance plant resilience to drought and heavy metal stress, promoting better growth and nutrient uptake within affected soils.
