Achievements
  • Research achievements: (1) First report of pomegranate bacterial blight disease from Assam (caused by Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. Punicae).
    (2) Involved as a research fellow in the development and testing of six microbial bioformulation technologies- > Biogreen (substrate-based bioformulation containing five different PGPMs), > Biogreen-L (liquid bioformulation containing five different PGPMs), > Bio-Veer (talc-based bioformulation containing Trichoderma viride), > Bio-Zium (talc-based bioformulation containing Trichoderma harzianum), > Bio-Meta (talc-based bioformulation containing Metarhizium anisopliae), > Bio-Time (Talc-based bioformulation containing Metarhizium anisopliae Pseudomonas fluorescens and Trichoderma harzianum).
    (3) Developed and tested carrier-based microbial consortia of PGPMs and Methanotrophic bacteria for reduction of bacterial leaf blight (BLB) and sheath blight (ShB) diseases with simultaneous bioremediation of biogenic methane emission in submerged paddy fields.
  • Successfully led forty-four (44) training programs as Course Director, including three skill development training (two of 30 days each and one of 15 days duration) and two vocational training programs (7 days duration each).
  • Second Best Poster Award for the presentation entitled “Effect of Plant Growth Promoting microbial consortia on Rhizoctonia root rot disease incidence and yield attributing characters of chilli crop” in the National Seminar of Indian Phytopathological Society North East Zonal Meeting, held at Jorhat, Assam on November 4-5th, 2016.
