Brief bio:
Soybean is a major commodity in agronomy globally, and China is one of the largest soybean importers. Soybeans are a traditional food and oil source in China, and they are also used as a feed source for animals. Soybean cyst nematode is a major economic problem for soybean production, especially in the United States. The approach of focusing on natural resistance mechanisms and engineering resistant soybean cultivars is one potential solution to this problem. I was fortunate to secure a postdoctoral position in Andrew Bent’s lab and receive training in this area. I have chosen to pursue the resolution of this issue as a career objective.

I am deeply grateful to the Bent Lab, as well as to Zhejiang University and the Nematology Professional Committee of the Chinese Society for Plant Pathology for their invaluable support.

大豆是全球农业主要商品之一，中国是最大的大豆进口国之一。大豆在中国是传统食品和油料来源，也是动物饲料来源。大豆孢囊线虫病对大豆生产造成了巨大损失，已成为影响美国大豆最严重的病害，在我国也愈演愈烈。线虫造成的病害狠隐蔽难以诊断，容易成灾也难以防治。专注于自然抗性机制和培育抗性大豆品种是解决这个问题的一个潜在方案。我很幸运能够在安德鲁·本特的实验室获得博士后职位，并在这个领域开展了部分的研究。目前，我在浙江大学生物所任特聘研究员，组建了自己的实验室，我将继续把解决大豆问题作为自己的职业目标，助力大豆产能提升，服务好粮食安全大局。
