At the Repository of Tomato Genomics Resources, we are working on Tomato Functional Genomics, using TILLING, Insertional Mutagenesis, Exome Capture, Genome Editing, proteomics and metabolomics approaches to study fruit ripening in tomato. The current aims of the group include using reverse and forward genetics strategies to isolate tomato mutants delayed in ripening, having high lycopene and folate content in tomato fruits and analysis of light and hormonal signal transduction pathways.
Currently, we have following positions available in the projects “Manipulation of light signaling components for improvement of tomato fruit quality” and “Interaction between proteome and metabolomic networks during tomato fruit ripening” awarded to Dr. Y. Sreelakshmi, funded by Department of Biotechnology. The qualifications for the positions are as follows:
Post: Research Assistant, Research Associate

Applicants should have minimum one year experience in tissue culture for generating transgenic plants. M.Sc. in any branch of Life Sciences is required. Selected candidates would be paid a consolidated pay of Rs. 15000/-pm. Applications for this position without enclosed experience certificate will be rejected.
2. Research Assistant II - 1 position
Applicants should have M.Sc. in any branch of Life Sciences plus 1-2 years research experience in proteomics analyses-2Dgel/LC-MS or M.Tech (Pharmacy, Chemistry, etc.) with 1-2 years’ experience in HPLC, mass spectrometry. Selected candidates would be paid a consolidated pay of Rs. 15000/-pm. Applications for this position without enclosed experience certificate will be rejected.
3. Research Associate I (1 position): Applicants should have very good experience in proteomics, preferably using plant tissues in examining posttranslational modifications, quantitative proteomics using shotgun approaches, basic knowledge of mass spectrometry and should be supported by publications.
