Research Interest:

1. Light signal transduction of plant

Plants exposed to UV exhibit protective responses including elevated anthocyanin biosynthesis. A tomato accession LA1996 with Anthocyanin fruit (Aft) gene accumulates anthocyanins in fruits. In our previous study, we found that anthocyanin accumulation in this fruits was induced only by co-irradiation with UV-B and blue but not by other wavelength lights including red, far-red, blue, UV-A or UVA+UV-B. UV-B + blue induction of anthocyanin biosynthesis is commonly observed in plants, but its signaling pathway is poorly understood. To dissect this pathway, we constructed EMS mutated lines of LA1996, and screened for mutants that lost UV-B + blue induced anthocyanin accumulation. These mutants are expected to be defective in one of the components of UV-B + blue signaling pathway, or in aft genes. The purpose of this study is to identify the mutated genes of these mutants and find new key members of UV-B + blue signaling pathway that regulate anthocyanin biosynthesis.

2. Ginseng bioreactor production research profile

Ginseng (Panax ginseng) is a valuable Chinese traditional medicine. Wild ginseng resources are depleted due to the long-term over-excavation. Now, cultivated ginseng occupied the market. However, cultivated ginseng has the many disadvantages, such as low medicinal value, pesticide pollution, heavy metal pollution, competition for land, etc. To protect the wild ginseng resources and meet the market demand, this research was aimed to use the bioreactor technology to produce a large amount of ginseng cultured roots with high quality. Now, 5000-L bioreactor system is designed and built for this purpose.

3. Selection of cold-tolerant ornamental plants and research of its mechanism

Stresses caused by drought, salinity, temperature and other environmental factors, are major reasons affecting plant growth and result in significantly reduced crop yield worldwide. Transgenic plant technology provides a powerful tool to improve abiotic stress tolerance of plants. We focus on the adversity of flower germplasm resources in north China. We attempt to improve the tolerance of vulnerable flowers to these abiotic stresses through introgression of stress tolerance genes.
