Abishkar Regmi is Ph.D. student who recently graduated with his MS degree in Horticulture at Texas Tech. He will continue his Ph.D. research in the Urban and Sustainable Horticultural lab under Dr. Catherine Simpson. He completed his bachelor's degree in agricultural science from Campus of Live Sciences', Tribhuvan University, Institute of Agriculture and Animal Science, Nepal. Currently he is working on multiple production systems factors to induce phytochemical content in ornamental plant production. His research interests focus on plant physiology, greenhouse production, hydroponic system, ornamental production along with spectrophotometric analyses. His goal is to work on different production systems and substrates that can alter the physiology of plants.
