Distinguished Researchers at PNU
Saddam Hussain

​​​​Department: Faculty of Agriculture, Department of Agronomy

Position: Assistant Professor/Assistant Professor

 

 Dr. Saddam Hussain is working as Assistant Professor in the area of Plant Stress Physiology at the Department of Agronomy, University of Agriculture, Faisalabad. He has been recognized with several international distinctions/awards in recent years. He published over 150 refereed journal papers, many of which have sought to understand the morphological, physiological, biochemical and molecular basis of crop responses (rice in particular) to individual and concurrent abiotic stresses and mechanisms imparting tolerance for such stresses. He devised promising strategies for improving the crop performance under sub-optimum conditions (salinity, drought, submergence, temperature extremes, metal toxicity) and suggested various novel indicators for augmenting stress tolerance in plants. His teaching activities include advising and mentoring graduate students and teaching of undergraduate and post-graduate courses related to plant physiology and agronomy.

Currently, he is working as Editor/Editorial board member of various international journals including Journal of Advanced Research (Q1, Elsevier), Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety (Q1, Elsevier), Journal of Plant Growth Regulation (Q1, Springer), BMC Plant Biology (Q1, Springer), Food and Energy Security (Q1, Wiley), Crop Science (Q1, Wiley), PLOS One (Q1, USA), Plants (Q1, MDPI), Sustainability (MDPI), International Journal  of Agronomy (Hindawi), Applied Environmental and Soil Science (Hindawi), Frontiers in Agronomy, Plant Science Today, and Planta Daninha.
