Jian Zhang Professor，PI CNRRI SKL-RBB
My research interest is in plant developmental biology, specifically rice reproductive developmental biology. My team and I utilize a range of cutting-edge methodologies, such as genetics, cellular biology, molecular biology, biochemistry methods. Our ultimate objective is to successfully clone and meticulously examine functional genes that control the crucial agronomic traits of rice, such as flowering, inflorescence establishment, fertility, seed development, grain quality, seed germination, and dormancy. We meticulously identify genetic regulatory pathways and leverage these genes in rice molecular breeding through marker-assisted selection, transgenic, or other biotechnology methods. We focus on studying transcription factor, kinase, and epigenetic modification genes to better understand gene regulatory mechanisms through the lenses of transcriptional regulation, post-translational modification, and epigenetic modification. In addition, I have a keen interest in biotechnology and synthetic biology, using rice as a model species to produce beneficial metabolites that can improve human health.
