Dr. Abed Chaudhury is a well-known geneticist who together with colleagues in Australia isolated the FIS (fertilization independent seed) gene; fis mutants can produce partial seed without fertilization. After development, this method may make female plants develop and male part of the plant would become needless. Then female plants would be able to reproduce without males, a process known as apomixis.

He is leading a group of scientists in Australia in his research.

Mr. Chaudhury was a student of Notredame College of Dhaka.
