Srivignesh Sundaresan | Sustainable Agriculture | Best Researcher Award

Dr. Srivignesh Sundaresan | Sustainable Agriculture | Best Researcher Award

Assistant Professor | Central University of Tamil Nadu | India

Dr. Srivignesh Sundaresan, Assistant Professor at the Central University of Tamil Nadu, India, is a leading researcher in molecular horticulture, plant biotechnology, and nanotechnology applications in agriculture. His work focuses on deciphering the molecular and physiological mechanisms underlying floral abscission in tomatoes, developing transgenic and CRISPR-Cas9 edited lines with reduced abscission, and enhancing post-harvest longevity through nanotechnological innovations. His research has mapped the abscission pathway in tomato, designed customized microarrays (AMADID: 043310), and identified key regulatory genes, including THyPRP and KD1, offering global insights into crop productivity improvement. Dr. Srivignesh Sundaresan’s postdoctoral research introduced a multi-layered electrospun nanofiber encapsulated with 1-MCP and hexanal, extending banana shelf life by two weeks—a pioneering advancement in smart nanodelivery systems for horticultural produce. His current projects include developing nano matrices for solanaceous grafting and hormone-loaded multilayer nanofiber systems to enhance graft union efficiency. He has published over 45 peer-reviewed journal articles in reputed international journals such as Plant Physiology, Journal of Experimental Botany, Frontiers in Plant Science, Horticulture Research, Scientific Reports, ACS Applied Biomaterials, and Journal of Food Composition and Analysis, with multiple works in Q1 and Q2 impact-factor journals. His publications have accrued 514 citations, 21 Documents  and an h-index of 10, demonstrating his scientific influence.
