Biography:
I received my bachelor’s degree in Agriculture and Plant Breeding, in Azad University of Karaj and my master’s degree in Agricultural Biotechnology, at the University of Tehran, Iran. To further develop my scientific career, I completed two biotechnology internship programs at the Department of Genomics and Department of Microbial Biotechnology and Biosafety at the Agricultural Biotechnology Research Institute of Iran (ABRII). Currently, I am a PhD student at the Department of Physiology and Cell Biology at the IPK, Germany, and the main focus of my project is on the physiological and molecular mechanisms underlying the beneficial effect of silicon on barley plants under drought stress or potassium (K) deficiency
Title : Impact of silicon (Si) nutrition on barley plants under potassium (K) deficiency: Insight into transcriptional, hormonal and metabolic regulation
