Manish K. Pandey completed his PhD in Plant Genetics from Osmania University while working at ICAR-Indian Institute of Rice Research (IIRR), Hyderabad, India. He had postdoctoral research experience at the University of Georgia, USA. He currently leads the groundnut and pigeonpea genomics, prebreeding, and bioinformatics research at the International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT), Hyderabad, India. He is also an elected fellow of the National Academy of Agricultural Sciences, India, and his contributions are well-cited, with 11,953 Google Scholar citations, an h-index of 60, and an i10-index of 169.M. G. Mallikarjuna is a Scientist (Genetics and Plant Breeding) at the Division of Genetics, ICAR-Indian Agricultural Research Institute (ICAR-IARI), New Delhi, India. He earned a degree in agricultural sciences from the University of Agricultural Sciences, Dharwad, India. He completed his post-graduation from Acharya NG Ranga Agricultural University, Hyderabad, and earned a doctoral degree from ICAR-IARI, New Delhi, receiving gold medals for his outstanding academic performance. He received several research grants from various national funding agencies. His current research interests include the application of genomics and systems biology to understand the stress responses in crops and model plants, deciphering the evolutionary snapshots of gene families and stress-resilient breeding. To date, he has published 35 research articles in peer-reviewed journals, 10 book chapters, and 3 books. In addition to this, he has been involved in developing 15 hybrid varieties. He is also actively involved in post-graduation teaching and guiding research scholars in their project work.H. C. Lohithaswa is currently working as a Professor of Genetics and Plant Breeding at the University of Agricultural Sciences (UAS), Bangalore. He holds master’s and doctoral degrees in genetics and plant breeding from UAS, Bangalore, and later served as a postdoctoral researcher at the Plant Genome Mapping Laboratory, University of Georgia, Athens, USA. He has taught many courses to undergraduate and graduate students and received several awards for his scientific contributions. His work on comparative genomics-driven marker discovery helped identify markers that work across both the Poaceae and legume lineage. He has wide experience in QTL mapping, marker-assisted selection, and genomic selection in crops, such as cowpea, pigeonpea, rice, and maize. He has successfully handled several national and international research projects and published over 150 research papers in journals with high impact factors. He was also involved in finger millet and horse gram genome sequencing. Additionally, he has developed and released 20 crop varieties.Muraleedhar S. Aski is a Senior Scientist specializing in lentil and mungbean breeding at the Division of Genetics, ICAR-Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi. Previously, he served as a chickpea breeder at ICAR-IIPR, Kanpur. His research focuses on crop improvement using conventional, molecular, and transgenic methods. Dr. Aski earned his bachelor’s degree from UAS, Dharwad, a master’s degree from ANGRAU, Bapatla, and a PhD in genetics from IARI, New Delhi. He has played a key role in developing 15 legume crop varieties, including a highprotein chickpea, IPC 2005-62, and India’s first biofortified lentil, L 4717 (Pusa Agethi). As a faculty member, he teaches and supervises graduate and PhD students. His work on genetic resources, stress evaluations, and nutrient gene mapping earned him the GRISAAS 2019 Young Scientist Award. His research is well-cited, with 994 Google Scholar citations, an H-index of 17, and an i10-index of 30.Sanjeev Gupta is a distinguished scientist in plant breeding at the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), where he currently serves as the Assistant Director General (Oilseed and Pulses) in New Delhi. With over 32 years of expertise in grain legume genetics, he has developed 18 high-yielding cultivars, including the world’s first early-maturing mungbean variety, ‘Virat’, which matures in just 52–55 days. Under his leadership as national coordinator, mungbean and urban production have increased by over 2.5 times in just 8 years, significantly advancing India’s progress towards self-sufficiency in pulses. He has led multiple national and international projects focused on molecular marker-assisted breeding and climate-resilient agriculture. As a distinguished author, he has published nearly 125 research papers and edited 6 books, including popular titles from Springer. He is a Fellow of the National Academy of Agricultural Sciences and has received numerous awards for his contributions to agricultural science.
