Dr. Faheem Shehzad Baloch is working as Professor of plant breeding and genetics at Sivas University of Science and Technology, Sivas, Turkey. He received his Ph.D. with a dissertation on ‘QTL mapping in wheat’ from the faculty of agriculture, University of çukurova, Adana, Turkey in 2012 with a joint fellowship of Turkish ministry of education and Turkish scientific and Technological council of Turkey (TÜBİTAK). In 2013, he started to work as assistant professor at Niğde ÖmerHalis Demir university, Niğde Turkey. In 2015, he joined Bolu Abant izzet Baysal Bolu, Turkey as Assistant professor. In 2018, he promoted to associate professor in the same institute. In August, 2020, he joined Sivas university of science and Technology as associate professor and currently working in the same university. Dr. Faheem has more than 9 years of teaching and research experience in the plant phenomes, genetics and genomics, biotechnology specially in next generation sequencing (NGS) and DNA molecular markers in plant genetics for germplasm characterization, identification of genomic regions for traits of agricultural interest, development and validation of molecular markers for their use in marker assisted selection, and genomic prediction for plant improvement program particularly cereals and legumes and also for developing strategies for preserving this precious germplasm from Türkiye, which is the hot spot of biodiversityfor most of agricultural crops and also thousands of endemic species. He leaded and participated in many projects funded by national and international organizations. He supervised and co-supervised MSC, PhD and post doc candidates from various countries. He has over 100 publications in Web of Sciences database. He has co-edited 6 books and written over 14 book chapters on important aspects of molecular genetics in relation to plant species. He has extensive array of citations with over 3000 times as per google scholar with an h-Index of 30. Dr. Baloch is active member of various COST action and also serve as Editorial board member of several impacted journals such as Turkish journal agriculture and forestry, BMC Genomic data, Agronomy Journal. Biotechnology and Biotechnological Equipment, BMC Plant Biology, and guest editor for special issues in different journals and also reviewer for more than 55 peer-reviewed international journals with more than 121 verified reviews according to WOS. Dr. Muhammad Azhar Nadeem is working as an Associate Professor of plant breeding and genetics at Sivas University of Science and Technology, Sivas, Turkiye. His PhD thesis was entitled “Identification of Genomic Regions for Various Agronomic Traits in Turkish Common Bean Germplasm with Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS)”. He is currently engaged in research activities involving genetic diversity assessment, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for the identification of genomic regions, and their validation through KASP assay for marker-assisted breeding. Dr. Nadeem is focusing to perform GWAS in legumes, especially in common bean and lentil and other legumes to identify genomic regions associated with agronomic, mineral elements, cooking and quality traits that will be helpful for the biofortification of these crops. He has a good number of publications in world-renowned and prestigious journals. He serves as an editorial board member of BMC Plant Biology, BMCGenomic Data, BMC Research Notes, Agriculture-MDPI, Plants-MDPI, Physiologia Plantarum, Frontiers in Plant Science, Molecular Biology Reports, Genetic Resources and crop evolution and Pakistan Journal of Botany. He has co-edited 2 books and written over 10 book chapters on important aspects of molecular genetics in relation to plant species. He has a good number of citations (1584) as per Google Scholar with an h-Index of 18. Dr Ephrem Habyarimana is a Principal Scientist at ICRISAT India, leading ICRISAT’s research on sorghum breeding to optimize the breeding program towards the aim of improving sorghum productivity and income generation, particularly for smallholder farmers. He is a PhD in Agricultural Genetics (Tuscia University, Italy), holds a Master’s degrees in Crop Science (Polytechnic University of Marche, Italy) and in Biotechnology Studies (University of Maryland University College, USA), and several other university degrees and training certificates obtained in Latin America, Africa, Asia and Europe. Dr Habyarimana has documented skills and expertise of more than 25 years in crop science, genetics and plant breeding with a particular focus on sorghum. He integrates crop breeding with diverse technologies and skills – agroecological and genomic modelling, big data analytics (phenomics, genomics) – in the process of developing sustainable, resilient, cost-effective cultivars friendly to the environment and biodiversity.
