 Brief bio:

My research is focused on plants with important agricultural and ecological roles, such as common flowering species, cycads, and mangroves. My team investigates key traits of plants and their relationship to ecological adaptations. We are particularly interested in the relationships between genome size, cell size, and tissue structure, and plant water relations–traits that are often critical in determining plant mortality across environments. We seek to uncover the evolutionary history of these traits and how they have influenced plant adaptation to different climates, with the aim of improving plant utilization, restoration, and conservation.

个人简介：

我的研究关注有重要农业和生态功能的植物类群，如常见开花植物，苏铁类植物和红树植物。我的团队主要探究植物关键性状及其与植物生态适应之间的关联。我们的研究兴趣集中在基因组大小、细胞大小、组织结构、水分相关的性状（通常决定植物在不同环境存亡）等植物性状与环境适应的关联机制。通过揭示各性状的进化史及其在植物适应各种环境中的作用，旨在改善我们对植物的利用，恢复和保护。
