研究方向

从事大豆基因组学和遗传育种的相关研究，主要包括：1）挖掘和利用大豆自然群体中优异的等位变异改良大豆品种。 2）利用新兴技术，如高通量表型鉴定技术、全基因组预测、快速育种技术、基因编辑等技术加快实现大豆育种目标；3）大豆驯化的遗传基础。野生大豆的驯化过程是其适应早期农业生产的过程，其植株形态，生理特征都发生了巨大的变化。理解这些变化背后的遗传基础有助于我们更好的利用野生大豆种质资源。（欢迎有兴趣的同学、博后加盟！Currently, we do NOT have open positions for internatioanl applicants. 联系方式：zjp@njau.edu.cn）
