Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics
Dr. Farooq Ahmad Khan

Position & Department: Chairman/Associate Professor, Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, Faculty of Agriculture

Research Intersts: Breeding oilseed Brassica & Sugarcane for yield and quality

 
Dr. Zulfiqar Ali

Position & Department: Professor, Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, Faculty of Agriculture

Research Intersts: Resource conservation SMART crop breeding especially climate smart biofortified bread and durum pureline and hybrid wheat breeding, triticale, barley and rice breeding.

 
Dr. Tariq Manzoor Khan

Position & Department: Associate Professor, Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, Faculty of Agriculture

Research Intersts: Environmental stresses are major constraints to the productivity of crops throughout the world. It is therefore imperative that mechanisms and causes of the stress effects on plant growth and development may be determined systematically, and strategies may be adopted to overcome adverse effects of stresses in order to achieve maximum productivity from the salinity, high temperature and drought-hit areas. My current interests are focused on the expression of stress proteins and other stress related primary and secondary metabolites under water, salinity, heat and cadmium stresses, and finding strategies to fetch greater yields under such conditions. Among various crops, major emphasis is on wheat, barley, rice, sugarcane and maize.

 
Dr. Azeem Iqbal Khan

Position & Department: Professor, Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, Faculty of Agriculture

Research Intersts:

 
Dr. Muhammad Kashif

Position & Department: Associate Professor, Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, Faculty of Agriculture

Research Intersts: Breeding and genetics of high yielding, early maturing, disease resistant wheat. Development of advance lines tolerant to various abiotic stresses. Exploitation of other minor cereals as supplement grain food along with wheat.

 
Dr. Muhammad Ahsan Iqbal

Position & Department: Associate Professor, Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, Faculty of Agriculture

Research Intersts: Sunflower improvement for high quality oil and oil yield. Development of local inbred lines in sunflower for hybrid variety development

 
Dr. Amir Bibi

Position & Department: Associate Professor, Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, Faculty of Agriculture

Research Intersts: Plant breeding is the science and business of crop improvement. It is an innovation based sector, focused on developing plants better adapted to the environment and to human needs. I am handling two Farm & Research Projects, for production of surplus green fodder as well as seed in berseem, oats, sorghum and maize. Additionally, I am working on development of multicut, Sorghum-Sudangrass hybrid plants having better nutritional quality (particularly protein contents) to satisfy the degree of hunger in livestock during extreme summers. I am also working on development of fodder crops, which can successfully cope the climate-resilient factors (abiotic and biotic) and could provide more benefits with minimum application of inputs (fertilizer, irrigation, weedicides/pesticides). As, Today’s Plant Breeding is more than just producing varieties of crops/seeds. That’s why, I am focusing on different issues related to genetic conservation, crop production, farm management, and profitability keeping in view the market conditions.

 
Dr. Muhammad Aslam

Position & Department: Associate Professor, Department of Plant Breeding and Genetics, Faculty of Agriculture
