Overview

Lalji Singh was affiliated with the Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology in India. Their research primarily spanned the Agricultural and Biological Sciences, with a particular focus on Forestry, Nature and Landscape Conservation, Plant Science, Molecular Biology, and Genetics. Their work also covered topics such as Agroforestry and silvopastoral systems, Forest ecology and management, Digital Marketing and Social Media, Genetic and Clinical Aspects of Sex Determination and Chromosomal Abnormalities, Chromosomal and Genetic Variations, RNA Research and Splicing, and Genetic diversity and population structure.

Their frequent co-authors included Shalini Toppo (6 collaborations), Pratap Toppo (4), Jiwan Lal (3), Mexudhan Mexudhan (3), and Jaimangal Tirkey (3). The scientist published multiple articles across various journals, with a concentration in the RASSA Journal of Science for Society (3 publications), followed by Ecology Environment and Conservation (2), International Journal of Plant & Soil Science (2), BMC Biology (1), and Scientific Reports (1).

Notable publications included:

  • "Y chromosomal noncoding RNAs regulate autosomal gene expression via piRNAs in mouse testis," 2021, BMC Biology
  • "Ancient mtDNA from the extinct Indian cheetah supports unexpectedly deep divergence from African cheetahs," 2020, Scientific Reports
  • "Structure, composition and diversity of tree vegetation of buffer zone of Achanakmaar Amarkantak Biosphere Reserve in Central India," 2022, RASSA Journal of Science for Society
  • "Pattern of litterfall in tropical dry deciduous forest of central India: A review," 2022, RASSA Journal of Science for Society
  • "Sacred groves a place of biodiversity conservation centre: A case study from Jaspur District of Chhattisgarh," 2022, RASSA Journal of Science for Society

Lalji Singh was recognized as a Fellow of The World Academy of Sciences in 2001.
