    Research Direction：Maize disease resistance and molecular breeding

I received my Ph.D. from Fudan University in 1997 and did postdoctoral research at the University of Hohenheim in Germany and the University of Illinois in the United States from 1997 to 2002. I worked as a lecturer, associate professor and full professor at Yangzhou University from 1987 to 2004. Currently, I am a professor at China Agricultural University and am engaged in corn disease resistance research at the National Maize Improvement Center of China.


Main Research Direction

My group is interested in the genetic basis and molecular mechanism underlying natural variation in maize quantitative disease resistance. With the availability of vast germplasm resources, we further screen elite haplotypes for molecular breeding of resistant cultivars.
