Summer Research Scholar

Jan 2020 - Feb 2020
I was awarded the Summer Research Scholarship by the University of Adelaide where I undertook a six week research project at the Wheat Hub, Plant Genomics Centre, Waite Research Institute under the guidance of Dr Mamoru Okamoto, Research Fellow at the School of Agriculture, Food and Wine, University of Adelaide. My research project was focused on “How Does Acetate-Based Biostimulant Work Against Drought Stress in Wheat”.I studied the efficiency of Skeep, an acetate-based biostimulant (Ac-Planta Inc, Japan) in wheat (Scepter) at the early phase of wheat’s growth stage. I grew wheat samples at the world-renowned Plant Accelerator at Waite Campus in a hydroponic system. These samples were grown for approximately 4 weeks where I investigated the following experiments:1.The difference between shoot, root length and weight between the plants treated with Skeep and the plants that were not treated by Skeep.2. This was followed up by putting the plants in a drought stress environment to see how long the plants of the two different treatments would take to become susceptible to drought stressed situations.3. I also analysed if the experimented plants could recover after being exposed to drought conditions by placing them back into the hydroponics system.

As a research intern in Sentek, there were various projects that I was assigned to during my 6-month internship. These included data analysis of Sentek's customer's soil moisture probes and taking notes of it for the customers to understand and interpret the data generated by their probes, manual set up of moisture probes at field sites for Sentek's clients, summarising the role Sentek's products played across various scientific literature which was put up on their new website and assisting my supervisors in building a new feature, matric potential calibration into Sentek's probes.
