Description

Prof Cheng is the group leader. His research interest is on how plant acquired new traits along the entire evolutionary innovation journey and the underlying molecular mechanisms, either by species-based phylogenomics approach (comparative evolutionary genomics) or via population-based sampling & association study (GWAS and genome-wide selection scanning). He has published in Science, Cell, Nature Biotechnology, and Plant Cell, etc.
I held a discussion meeting with Prof Cheng, and introduced our root phenotyping platform. He shows great interest in future collaborations in root phenotyping and genotyping.
