Research summary
AI-generated

Harish Kothandaraman works in genomics and transcriptomics, studying gene expression and genetic variation across a wide range of species including plants (rice, pomegranate), fish, and mammals (river buffalo, Bengal tiger, dhole). This research typically involves sequencing DNA or RNA from organisms and analyzing the resulting data to understand traits like disease resistance, nutrient use, or reproductive biology, and to characterize genetic diversity, including in endangered species. The work often involves large-scale collaborative genome sequencing projects.
