本人过去十多年主要围绕植物花期的遗传基础和花（序）的发育调控开展研究。在研究中结合经典遗传学、分子生物学、调控组学等手段，先后克隆了2个控制水稻开花期及穗大小的主效基因；并从基因的转录调控、染色质修饰和活性等多个层面研究了植物花发育过程中的调控机制。相关研究结果发表在Molecular Plant、Cell Research、New Phytologist、Nature Plants及Nature Communications等杂志上。2019年3月入职新葡萄官网登录入口新葡萄官网登录入口，从事小麦产量性状形成的遗传及分子调控基础的研究。本课题组将充分利用在模式植物拟南芥和水稻中积累的经验、知识以及相关技术体系，围绕着小麦开花期及穗发育的调控网络以及小麦多倍化的调控生物学基础等问题开展研究工作。
