  Research Interests

  1.Study on the functions and mechanisms of the A-to-I RNA editing, a novel epigenetic mechanism in fungi reported by us recently.

  2.Functional characterization of genes or gene families, especially pathogenesis-related, in wheat scab fungus Fusarium graminearum.

  3.Comparative analysis of members of fungal gene families to understand their evolution and function, and to provide candidate targets for experimental study.

  4.Comparative closely related genomes or population genomes for addressing the nature and intensity of adaptation and selection in different categories of genes and different lineages of fungi.

  5.Comparative transcriptomics from multiple combinations of pathogen and host species to characterize the evolution of plant pathogenic fungi at the level of transcription regulation.
