Professor Kaijun Zhao obtained his Ph.D. from the Graduate School of Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences (CAAS) majoring in plant genetics and breeding. He conducted postdoctoral researches in the Department of Botany at The University of Hong Kong, where he experienced intensive researches on plant molecular biology. Since 2000 he led his own research group at Institute of Crop Science, CAAS in China. Kaijun’s laboratory is mainly interested in the molecular mechanisms of rice-pathogen interaction and consequently developing resources for rice breeding. He and colleagues cloned the prestigious rice bacterial blight resistance gene Xa23 which has been widely used in rice breeding programs and brought billions of benefits to farmers in China and beyond. Since 2010, Kaijun’s laboratory has been focused on application of genome editing technologies for rice improvement. Based on investigations on the transcription activator-like effector AvrXa23, the lab has developed a simplified method for assembly of TALENs. Meanwhile, the lab has also established the CRISPR-Cas9 system for plant genome editing, which has been successfully adopted for improvement of rice resistance to diseases, rice grain yield and quality. Kaijun is the recipient of several prestigious awards such as Outstanding Scientific and Technological Innovation Award of CAAS, First Prize of China Agricultural Science & Technology Award and First Prize of DBN Science & Technology Award. Prof. Zhao has published more than 130 research papers and serves in the editorial board of several plant biotechnology journals. He was the liaison Scientist of International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) and currently serves as a Member of PROGRAMME ADVISORY COMMITTEE (PAC), MPOB, Malaysia.
Dr. Rukmini Mishra currently serves as Associate Professor and Head in the Department of Botany, School of Applied Sciences, Centurion University of Technology and Management, Odisha, India where she teaches graduate level courses in Plant Genomics and Biotechnology. She is also the coordinator of the Centre for Genetics and Genomics and in this capacity supervises the overall research related to plant genomics, next generation sequencing and data analysis. Dr. Mishra has a PhD in Agricultural Biotechnology from National Rice Research Institute (NRRI-ICAR), India. She is the recipient of the prestigious SERB Young Scientist project Award and SERB Power grant from the Dept. of Science & Technology, Govt. of India and the Talented Young Scientist Fellowship under the TYSP programme of the Ministry of Science and Technology, Govt. of China. Her research primarily focuses on molecular marker development and CRISPR/Cas9 based genome editing towards development of resistance against fungal phytopathogens in rice, pepper and other crop species. She has published more than 30 research articles in journals of international repute.
Raj Kumar Joshi currently serves as Associate Professor and Head of the Dept. of Biotechnology, Rama Devi Women’s University, India where he teaches graduate level courses on Plant Genomics and Genetic Engineering. He also serves as the Group Leader of the Plant Functional Genomics Group, and in that capacity supervises the overall research activities on the functional aspects of molecular plant-microbe interactions. He has been awarded with the prestigious SERB early career grant and SERB extramural grant from the Dept. of Science and technology, Govt. of India and CREST award from Dept. of Biotechnology, Govt. of India. Dr. Joshi is currently running a successful programme on the delineation of molecular genetic networks in the interaction between plants and fungal phytopathogens. The crop of interest includes Capsicum annuum and Allium cepa. His recent forays into genome editing and precise base editing towards improvement of these crops has been highly productive. Dr. Joshi has published more than 60 research papers and serves in the editorial board of many prestigious plant biotechnology journals

Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
for delivery of newspapers, periodicals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts. The revocation right expires prematurely in case of contracts
for delivery of sealed products, which are not suitable for return for reasons of health protection or hygiene if their seal has been removed after the delivery;
for delivery of products if they have been mixed inseparably with other goods after the delivery, owing to their condition;
for delivery of sound or video recording or computer software in a sealed package if the seal has been removed after the delivery.
