As a master’s student from 1995 to 1998, I have worked on screening, cloning, and a functional analysis of corn root tissues protein genes that are responsible for transforming nutrient elements Fe. While working at Hebei University from 1998 to 2001, I taught “Molecular Biology” and “Plant Genetic Engineering” and joined the China National 863 Project’s funded research on transgenic study. My work was to use the gene gun to transform Galanthus nivalis agglutinin (GNA) into the embryogenic callus of the newly cultured winter wheat Hebei-4815 to induce the culture of the plantlets, and eventually to yield the new transgenic aphid resistant wheat.
My PhD dissertation is related to the separation and functional analysis of cotton verticillium wilt-tolerant gene GhHb1. Verticillium wilt of cotton is a serious disease caused by pathogenic fungi but its resistance gene resources had not been studied thoroughly before. My study was based on the cultured resistance cotton variety and I used the SSH method to separate and identify the cotton genes that were related to cotton verticillium wilt resistance.
In a currently ongoing project, which is supported by the China National Natural Science Foundation, I am deal with a functional analysis of the cotton verticillium wilt-tolerant gene GhHb1.
