        实验室的主要研究方向是禾本科植物的比较基因组学、生物信息学以及农作物重要农艺性状基因的克隆和功能研究。近期的主要研究:


稻属的比较基因组学和基因组进化的研究:随着水稻基因组测序的完成和水稻功能基因组的发展,稻属已成为一个开展植物的生理生化、基因组进化、多倍体、人工驯化、适应性和基因功能等各个方面研究的独特模式系统。稻属包含十种不同的基因组类型,其中既有二倍体(AA、BB、CC、EE、FF、GG),也有四倍体(BBCC、CCDD、HHJJ、KKLL)。我们前期开展了稻属基因组的常染色质区域的比较分析,如Monoculm1, Adh1Shattering 4Hd1等等。目前我们参与了国际稻属基因组计划 (International Oryza Map Alignment Project, I-OMAP),开展稻属基因组的着丝粒和异染色质区域的比较分析、短花药野生稻Oryza brachyantha(FF基因组)的全基因组测序和比较分析等等,以探讨稻属基因组的结构、功能和进化。
