Dr. Sidhu's research focuses on identifying and deploying novel plant traits across biological scales—from organelles to whole organisms—to enhance crop resilience to abiotic (drought, low fertility, salt) and biotic (disease) stresses. By integrating plant physiology, genetics, breeding, evolutionary biology, and advanced phenotyping through computer vision-based tools, Dr. Sidhu aims to improve resource use efficiency, deep rooting, and nutrient acquisition in major crops such as wheat, maize, sorghum, oats, and beans. His research bridges fundamental plant biology with applied breeding to develop climate-resilient, high-yielding cultivars for sustainable agriculture.
