Manu Magar

Manu Magar is a Researcher at the School of Biological Sciences, University of Western Australia, with a focus on plant genetics and climate resilience. They also hold an external position as a Biotechnologist at the National Biotechnology Research Center, Nepal Agricultural Research Council since May 2014.

• M.Sc.Ag. in Agricultural Science from Acharya N G Ranga Agricultural University (2012)
• B.Sc.Ag. in Horticulture from Tribhuwan University (2009)

Research Interests
Their work centers on plant breeding, gene expression, and crop genomics to combat heat stress in wheat. Key areas include transcription factor analysis, ERF gene regulation, and drought tolerance mechanisms.

Article Trends
Magar’s publications (2022–2025) emphasize AP2/ERF superfamily genes in wheat, heat tolerance pathways, and ethyline signaling during grain filling. Their work bridges genomic studies and transcription factor roles in stress response.

Collaborations & Research
Active in international collaborations between Australia, Nepal, and India, Magar contributes to crop improvement via genomic analysis and biotechnology.
