The University of Agriculture Peshawar, Pakistan
Ishrat Naz is a researcher at The University of Agriculture Peshawar, Pakistan, whose supplied scholarly record focuses on Agricultural and Biological Sciences, particularly plant pathology, biological control, plant-parasitic nematodes, and crop disease management. The profile records 35 documents, 520 citations, and an h-index of 13.
Abstract
The supplied research record of Ishrat Naz documents work in plant health and agricultural disease management. Research topics include biological control of root-knot nematodes, botanical nematicidal activity, green-manure applications, and management of bacterial wilt. A study in Biological Control investigated Meloidogyne incognita in cucumber using in vitro, greenhouse, and field approaches. [1] Another study examined Fumaria parviflora against the southern root-knot nematode. [2]
Keywords

Introduction
Plant-parasitic nematodes and plant pathogens are important subjects in agricultural research because effective management requires biological, ecological, and crop-production knowledge. The supplied publications address these challenges through biological-control, botanical, and alternative management approaches. Research involving Fumaria parviflora evaluated nematicidal activity against M. incognita, while related work investigated its use as green manure on tomato. [2][3]
Research Profile
The supplied Scopus profile lists 35 documents, 520 citations, and an h-index of 13. These indicators provide quantitative information about the indexed scholarly record and may change as databases are updated. The publication topics demonstrate an emphasis on agricultural disease management, with research spanning nematode control, biological agents, plant-derived materials, and bacterial-wilt management.
Research Contributions
- Nematode control: Biological-control research examined M. incognita in cucumber under laboratory, greenhouse, and field conditions. [1]
- Botanical management: F. parviflora was investigated for nematicidal activity against root-knot nematodes. [2]
- Crop protection: Research examined green manure and approaches to bacterial-wilt management. [3][4]
Publications
- Biological control of root knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita, in vitro, greenhouse and field in cucumber. Biological Control, 152, 104429 (2021).
- In vitro and in planta nematicidal activity of Fumaria parviflora against Meloidogyne incognita. Plant Pathology, 62(4), 943–952 (2013).

Research Impact
The supplied profile reports 520 citations and an h-index of 13, providing quantitative context for the indexed research record. The publications also address practical agricultural problems involving root-knot nematodes and bacterial wilt. The use of biological, botanical, and alternative management approaches contributes to research discussions concerning crop health and disease-management strategies. [1][4]
Award Suitability
The documented research themes provide material for academic consideration under an Outstanding Scientist Award associated with the International Soil Scientist Awards. Relevant areas include plant-parasitic nematodes, biological control, plant pathology, crop disease management, and experimental studies extending from laboratory to greenhouse and field settings. The supplied bibliometric indicators can be considered alongside research originality, publication quality, methodology, collaboration, and relevance to agricultural science.
Conclusion
Ishrat Naz’s supplied publication record represents research in Agricultural and Biological Sciences focused on plant pathology, biological control, nematode management, and crop disease research. The selected studies address M. incognita, F. parviflora, and R. solanacearum through biological and alternative management approaches. [1][2][4]
