Dinesh Kumar Saini is a Research Associate in the Department of Plant and Soil Science at Texas Tech University, specializing in crop breeding and genomics. He holds a master's degree in Genetics and Plant Breeding from Chaudhary Charan Singh University, India. During his Ph.D. at Punjab Agricultural University, he received prestigious fellowships, including DST-INSPIRE and ICAR-SRF, along with multiple academic honors, including the Chancellor and Vice-Chancellor Medals. His research focuses on the physiological, molecular, and histological mechanisms driving climate resilience and yield potential in grain sorghum. He has co-authored over 55 peer-reviewed articles, 20 book chapters, and numerous abstracts. He actively reviews for reputed journals, serves on editorial boards, and is a member of several professional societies. S. V. Krishna Jagadish is a Professor and Thornton Distinguished Chair of Plant and Soil Science at Texas Tech University. He earned a master's degree in Agronomy from the University of Agricultural Sciences, India, and a Ph.D. in Crop Physiology from the University of Reading, UK. He previously held positions at the International Rice Research Institute, Philippines, and later became a Professor at Kansas State University. Dr. Jagadish has received numerous awards, including the Kansas State Gamma Sigma Delta Outstanding Research Award and International Fellow of the Indian Society of Plant Physiology. With over 200 peer-reviewed publications, 16,500+ citations, an H-index of 73, and $25 million in grant funding, his research focuses on abiotic stress tolerance in sorghum, forage systems, water conservation, and soil health, promoting sustainability in the U.S. Southern High Plains.
