Prof Dr Narendra Tuteja: An elected fellow of numerous academies and visiting scientists at ICGEB, New Delhi, he is currently Director and Head of Amity Institute of Microbial Technology, Amity University, Noida, UP, India. Narendra Tuteja has made significant contributions to crop improvement under adverse conditions, reporting the first helicase from plant and human cells and demonstrating new roles of Ku autoantigen, nuclolin and elF4A as DNA helicases. Narendra Tuteja also reported several high salinity stress tolerant genes from plant and fungi and developed salt/drought tolerant plants.
