Research Area
Genetic variation is the basis of plant improvement and adaptation. My current work focuses on leveraging natural variation in plants to identify the genetic factors that underlie developmental, adaptive, and yield-related traits. I always use the latest genetic analysis approaches, biotechnology, molecular genetics, and biology techniques. My work aims to improve crop yield, quality, and plant performance under different environmental conditions. I also studied the influence of climate change and environmental stresses on plant crop adaptation, thus providing the genetic basis of adaptation.
My research focuses on using approaches that are combined with several techniques to discover the genetic bases underlying the influence of climate change on plant performance and productivity. These approaches pertain to OMICS, encompassing genetics and genomics, such as association and mapping analyses, genome scans, and transcription profiling. My research output has revealed several candidate genes potentially involved in climate change adaptation and has also illustrated genetic regulatory networks.
Therefore, I would like to focus more on the influence of climate change on plant adaptation and responses to environmental stresses and discover the genetic bases underlying the adaptation mechanisms.
I have extensive experience in scientific project management and developing international collaborations. My scientific publications reflect successful collaborations with both local and international teams. I have authored proposals, secured funding, and received grants to pursue my research in plant biology, physiology, and genetics.
