  研究方向

  (一)作物功能基因组学。本课题组将利用基因组学、分子遗传学和生物化学等手段解析重要农艺性状尤其是作物高产性状的遗传基础,目前以二倍体马铃薯为材料,开展块茎和匍匐茎发育的生物学机制研究。

  (二)基因组生态学。真核生物基因组形成了庞大复杂、协调有序的生态系统。本课题组将以基因组微环境为对象,开展基因组功能解析和靶向型遗传元件的鉴定,多层次揭示基因组生态系统的组织规律。

 

  PI

  Xinyan Zhang, Principal Investigator. Xinyan’s research is at the interface between plant functional genetics and eukaryotic genomics. His lab’s current areas of focus include the genetic dissection of agronomically important traits in crops and the ecological mechanisms in eukaryotic genome functioning.

  Research Interest

  (1) Crop functional genomics. We aim to dissect the genetic basis of agronomically important traits such as crop yield. The initial work in my lab will use diploid potato as a model system to identify genes that control yield-related traits.

  (2) Genome ecology. We are studying the organization and function of distinct niches in orderly arranged eukaryotic genomes with particular focus on characterizing precision-targeting genetic factors at those niches.
