Narinder Singh is a plant geneticist at the University of New Hampshire in Durham. His work focuses on genomics of wheat and its wild relatives, including resistance gene cloning and population genetics of Aegilops tauschii.[1]

Education

Singh received a B.Sc. (Hons.) from the College of Agriculture at Punjab Agricultural University, where he studied from 2006 to 2010.[2] He earned an M.S. in Plant & Environmental Science from New Mexico State University, completed between 2010 and 2013.[3] He then completed a Ph.D. in Genetics at Kansas State University, from 2013 to 2017.[4]

Research

According to Semantic Scholar, Singh has authored 112 papers that have collectively been cited 1,043 times, giving him an h-index of 15.[5]

His most cited work, "Resistance gene cloning from a wild crop relative by sequence capture and association genetics," published in Nature Biotechnology in 2019, has been cited 287 times.[6] Other frequently cited studies include "Efficient curation of genebanks using next generation sequencing reveals substantial duplication of germplasm accessions," published in Scientific Reports in 2018 and cited 93 times,[7] and two studies on Aegilops tauschii population genetics and grain architecture published in Frontiers in Plant Science in 2017 and 2019, cited 75 and 60 times respectively.[8][9]
