教育科研
研究領域
1）植物光合作用的調控機制。我們以水稻和擬南芥為材料研究光合作用電子傳遞、能量轉換、光合系統(tǒng)的組裝、光合作用的調控等科學問題。結合生物信息學、遺傳學和分子生物學的方法克隆葉綠體發(fā)育、光合作用相關的新基因，并解析其作用機制。
We study how photosynthetic energy conversion works, how it is regulated, and how it might be improved to help meet the worldu2019s needs for food and fuel. We use rice and Arabidopsis and interdisciplinary approaches to investigate fundamental questions about assembly, regulation, and dynamics of photosynthesis.
2）植物抗逆性研究。干旱、高鹽、低溫、高光及營養(yǎng)缺乏等非生物逆境會影響植物的生長發(fā)育。為了適應不斷變化的自然環(huán)境，植物有其自身的應對機制。我們的興趣在于克隆植物抗逆應答和信號傳導的相關基因，解析其分子機制及生物學功能，并將基礎理論研究的成果應用于水稻非生物逆境的抗性改良。
Our goal is to understand the molecular mechanism underlying plant response and adaptation to its environment. Several proteins and pathways have been identified that function in plant responses to environmental stress conditions including salt, drought, cold, high light, and poor nitrite. Manipulation of stress response genes and pathways can therefore enhance the growth of plants under abiotic stress, impacting agriculture and environment.
