OverviewAI-generated summary

Manish Gautam's research investigates the physiological responses of plants to environmental stressors, specifically focusing on the combined effects of drought and herbivory on soybean (Glycine max).

His work integrates ecophysiology and omics approaches to understand crop resilience. Gautam has also studied pest management strategies, including the control of brinjal fruit and shoot borer in Nepal and soybean looper in the United States. Additionally, his research has touched upon health-related topics, including cancer care in South Asia and maternal health interventions in Nepal.

Gautam holds an h-index of 10 with 32 publications and 262 citations. He collaborates with several researchers at the University of Arkansas, including Rupesh Kariyat, Insha Shafi, Adriana Peissel, and Sunil Aryal.
