Sanjeev Kumar Sharma

Research

Sanjeev has over 25 years’ experience in crop basic and applied research covering potato developmental biology, molecular biology, transgenics, genetics, genomics, marker development, sequence-based genotyping, next-generation sequencing and bioinformatics. With longstanding experience in potato genetics and genomics, he was a member of the international consortium responsible for the development of the first potato genome sequence (PGSC, 2011), led the development of the first physical genetic map of potato (Sharma et al., 2013), has undertaken numerous genetic studies for key potato traits (Campbell et al., 2023; Gartner et al., 2024; Morris et al., 2019; Morris et al., 2014; Pasare et al., 2013; Sharma & Bryan, 2017; Sharma et al., 2018; Sharma et al., 2021; Sharma et al., 2024) and has extensive track record in developing modern genotyping tools for potato, e.g., whole-exome capture (Sharma et al., 2021), genotyping-by-sequencing (Sharma et al., 2024), and single-primer enrichment technology (Sharma et al., 2022). He is utilizing these novel technologies along with modern genetic analysis approaches (e.g., genome-wide association studies, sequence-based bulk-segregant analysis, genomic selection) for trait analyses and allele mining in potato targeting important agronomic, processing and disease resistance traits. Sanjeev is Co-I in UKRI funded PACE project on optimizing genetics by management interactions to enhance productivity and quality in indoor plant cultivation; Scottish Govt funded projects on Potato cyst nematode and identifying genetic elements underlying abiotic stress tolerance in potato. Overall, here his broader focus of research is to exploit genetic, genomic, and biotechnological approaches for furthering potato research and accelerate breeding efficiencies in potato.

Sanjeev has collaborated on several national and international projects related to potato and other crops; chaired and coordinated the project monitoring meetings of the international potato genome sequencing consortium; served as member of the Scientific Program Committee for the 18th International Solanaceae Genome Conference (SOL2023, Canada), Advisory Board Panel for Plant Genomics Congress Europe (2015-2016), editorial board for the journals ‘Genes’ and ‘Crop Breeding, Genetics and Genomics’; has acted as reviewer for British Council Newton Fund (2018-2022) applications; evaluator for KAPPA Programme grants 2020 TACR Czech Republic; performed peer reviewing for scientific journals; invited to several international conferences as invited speaker and to deliver platform talks; and co-organised India-Scotland Research Symposium at Hutton.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Past research

Sanjeev has developed a prototype for advanced and accelerated propagation system in potato using somatic embryo-derived synthetic seeds. Before relocating to the UK, he acquired considerable experience in commercial plant tissue culture notably managing technical operations in a large micropropagation facility (Sheel Biotech Ltd, Gurugram, India – established in collaboration with Cultiss, Holland B.V.) with an annual capacity of >5 million plants. He also established an R&D-cum-pilot scale plant tissue culture laboratory at Thapar Centre for Industrial Research, Patiala, India along with developing indigenous protocols for large-scale production of potato microtubers and upscaled it for generating over 0.5 million microtubers and 1.2 million minitubers per annum. There, he also worked on the selection and micropropagation of elite Eucalyptus trees for the pulp and paper industry including establishment of a clonal demonstration plantation using tissue culture raised Eucalypt saplings.
