Imren Kutlu

PeerJ Editor, Author & Reviewer

Summary

Dr. Imren Kutlu received her Ph.D. in quantitative genetics from Eskisehir Osmangazi University of Eskisehir- Turkey, in 2012. She worked as a research assistant in the Agricultural Faculty in Eskisehir Osmangazi University–Turkey between 2007-2019. Following this, Dr. Kutlu became Associate Professor of Plant Breeding and Genetics at Eskisehir Osmangazi University, Agricultural Faculty, Field Crops Department.

During her Ph.D. she was skilled with quantitative genetics of cereals crops and applying in breeding of cereal yield and quality. In addition, she studied about agronomical techniques of cereals and legumes cultivation. In her postdoctoral studies, she focused on molecular genetics techniques, which helped her study molecular breeding of cereals crops, particularly for abiotic stress tolerance.

Since 2019. Dr. Kutlu has been researching plant molecular genetics, breeding for cereals crops under the different abiotic stress and supervising graduate/undergraduate researchers.

Generally, her research interests focus on the expression of abiotic stress-responsive genes and proteins, physiological and molecular mechanisms of the abiotic stress response, and tolerance. She also studies the effects of organic and inorganic molecules required for plants to coordinate stress responses under various abiotic stresses.
