National Institute of Abiotic Stress Management primarily focus on plants, animals and fisheries research. The major research under drought stress management will include physiological manifestations, perception & transduction of stress signals & regulation of stress responsive gene expression and efficient screening techniques for abiotic stress tolerance and mining of genes involved in stress tolerance from indigenous sources for improvement of major food and horticultural crops. The enhancement of abiotic stress tolerance in major food crops with a focus on wheat, rice, maize, groundnut, pulses, vegetables, mango, citrus, and apple will be done through genomics, proteomics, and metabolomics.
