Dr. Gausiya Bashri is Assistant Professor, Department of Botany, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh, India. She obtained her D.Phil. degree in Botany from the Department of Botany, University of Allahabad, Allahabad, India. The major area of her research includes plant growth regulators and abiotic stress tolerance mechanism in plants. She has worked on various plant physiological aspects like estimation of oxidative biomarkers, antioxidants, photosynthetic rate, chlorophyll a fluorescence and nitrogen metabolism in response to heavy metal, and other abiotic stresses. Dr. Bashri has published in international journals including Plos One, Journal of Plant Growth Regulation, Acta Physiologiae Plantarum, Plant Growth Regulation (Springer), Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, Plant Physiology and Biochemistry (Elsevier) and Chemistry and Ecology (Taylor and Francis), as well as being a regular reviewer of the same. She has also published chapters in edited books.
