I have the experience of doing research in the fields of molecular population genetics and

wildlife forensics of more than nine and three years, respectively. I had worked from the

Aravalli hills of Rajasthan to study the gene flow in malaria vector An. stephensi mosquitoes

for my Ph. D. to the high altitudinal areas of Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand for studying

population genetic structure of snow leopards in India as Post-doc. I have the experience of

dealing wildlife forensic cases using DNA based analysis at Wildlife Institute of India for

more than three years.

Ph. D. (2005-2010): Title of the thesis “Study of Gene Flow in Malaria Vector Anopheles

stephensi Across the Aravalli Hills in North-west India”

Summary of the thesis-

Anopheles stephensi Liston is a vector of malaria on the Indian subcontinent and primary

vector in Rajasthan, where its control has been hampered by insecticidal resistance. The

population structure of An. stephensi in North-west India was studied to assess the impact of

the Aravalli hills, as a barrier to gene flow using microsatellite markers. Large and significant

genetic differentiation was found along sides as well as across the Aravalli hills as the mean

FST and RST on West vs East of Aravalli hills were 0.213, 0.112 and 0.179, 0.056,

respectively,. Similarly, across the hills mean values of FST and RST were 0.100 and 0.094,

respectively. Genetic diversity on both sides did not vary significantly. The FST values were

more sensitive than RST values, indicating that genetic drift might have caused genetic

differentiation between populations. A positive correlation (r=0.0149 and 0.157, respective to

FST and RST) was found between genetic differentiations and geographic distances irrespective

of the hills. Low level of gene flow was found along both sides (Nm = 0.92 and 0.14; West vs

East of Aravalli hills, respectively) as compared to across the Aravalli hills (Nm = 2.25). It

was found that the Aravalli hills are not working as an effective barrier to gene flow for An.

stephensi may be because of its low average height and discontinuous hills, however, the

distance is playing a major role for differentiation between populations due to active mode of

dispersal of An. stephensi mosquitoes which have short flight range.

Genetic differentiation between three ecological variants (‘type’, ‘mysorensis’ and

‘intermediate’) of An. stephensi was also analyzed using eight microsatellite loci and it was

found that large and significant genetic differentiation exists between them (mean FST = 0.393

and mean RST = 0.422). Pairwise estimates of genetic differentiation between the variants

were ‘type’ vs ‘mysorensis’ (mean FST = 0.411 and mean RST = 0.308), ‘type’ vs

‘intermediate’ (mean FST = 0.388 and mean RST = 0.518) and ‘intermediate’ vs ‘mysorensis’

(mean FST = 0.387 and mean RST = 0.398) all were statistically significant (p < 0.05). The

greater sensitivity of RST in differentiation indicated that mutations and not genetic drift had

generated the differences between three variants of An. stephensi. The present study indicated

large genetic differentiation and presence of non-significant low level of gene flow between

the three variants (‘type’, ‘mysorensis’ and ‘intermediate’) of An. stephensi.

All this information should help draw the strategies for genetic control of mosquitoes using

transgenic mosquitoes.

Postdoctoral Research (Dec. 2010-till now) -

Central University of Jammu, Jammu,Jammu and Kashmir (03-03-2017 to till date):

Working as Dr. D. S. Kothari Postdoctoral Fellow on the project “Detection of malaria

parasites in endangered wild animal species of India using molecular techniques”

sanctioned to me from University Grant Commission, Government of India, New Delhi,

India for a period of three years (2017-2020).

Wildlife Forensic and Conservation Genetics Cell, Wildlife Institute of India, India (14-12-

2010 to 13-12-2011 and 19-08-2013 to 02-03-2017): Here, I was dealing wildlife offence

cases through analyzing them using DNA-based analysis and prepared reports for

providing scientific opinion to the courts of law. Alongside this I was doing research and

development work for developing new SOPs for species identification and providing

teaching and training to various law enforcement agencies and students about the

conservation of wildlife.

Laboratory for the Conservation of Endangered Species, CCMB, Hyderabad, India (15-

12-2011 to 14-12-2012): Here, I worked in D. B. T. funded project on studies on genetic

diversity and conservation status of snow leopards in India in which I collected >300 scats

within three months from high altitudinal areas of trans-Himalayas in Himachal Pradesh

and Uttarakhand and standardized tech. for DNA isolation and conditions for different

primers of species and sex identification.
