I am thrilled to congratulate my PhD advisee, Mr. Ashraful Alam Roman, on successfully defending his Doctoral Comprehensive Examination on 23 June 2022. His dissertation, entitled “Amelioration of Drought Stress in Cantaloupe by Chemical Interventions,” reflects his persistent hard work and significant contributions to developing nutrient management strategies to enhance cantaloupe’s tolerance to drought stress amidst climate change-induced freshwater scarcity. This accomplishment sets a strong foundation for him to earn his PhD Degree.
Acknowledgments
I extend my sincere gratitude to Professor Anil Kumar Anal, Dr. Takuji Wen Tsusaka, and Dr. Suriyan Cha-um for their invaluable feedback and guidance throughout the research process. Your constructive inputs have been instrumental in the successful completion of this work.
