Biotechnology is the field that exploits living organisms to make technological advance in various field for the sustainable. It has applications in the medical as well as agriculture sectors. my study focused to introduce beneficial bacteria to control Striga hermonthica that belong to parasitic weed which deadly pest for major cash crops. The biological control approaches to combat parasitic weed is highly recommended as it considered as one of environmentally friendly methods for management pests
2005
Undergraduate     Biological Systems and Organisms
General biology department includes: basic and advanced courses in Molecular Biology, Research Methodology, Biostatistics, Advanced Animal Physiology, Tissue Culture, Plant Taxonomy, Natural Products, Microbiology and others. my research project for graduation in final year was about studying of pomegranate rind extracts as antimicrobial plant.
