Dr. Naseem Ahmad is working as Assistant Professor in the D/o Botany, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh. He has also worked as a Young Scientist and has more than 10 years of experience in Plant Tissue Culture and Molecular Biology. Published about 44 research papers, 02 edited Books entitled “Plant Tissue Culture:Propagation, Conservation and Crop Improvement” (Springer;2016); Thidiazuron: From Urea Derivative to Plant Growth Regulator (Springer, 2018). He holds Life Membership of many Learned/ Scientific Societies and is a fellow of Indian Botanical Society (FBS). He is recipient of “Yuva Vaigiyanik Samman (2009), CST, UP; Young Scientist (2010) by NESA, N. Delhi, Rashtriya Gaurav Award (2015) by IIFS, N.
