Message

The plant is very special to mankind. It provides everything from food to medicine. Therefore, research focusing on plants is always fascinating around the world. I’m interested in broadening my knowledge to better understand the function of some key genes in plants, especially leucine-rich repeat genes. Based on my major in biotechnology and plant biology, I have been working to reveal tissue-specific expression analysis of leucine-rich repeat proteins in Arabidopsis thaliana under normal and abiotic conditions. I have also identified a potential dominant mutation in A. thaliana that generates an abnormal guard cell phenotype. Using this mutant, I am trying to alter the structure of major organs other than guard cells in A. thaliana. Besides this, I have a keen interest in plant-microbe interactions, especially the development of natural control systems to manage some bacterial and fungal diseases of plants. As a young scientist, I want to devote myself to scientific research for the welfare of mankind.

Qualification: Skilled in Molecular cloning, Bioinformatics, Plasmid isolation, DNA and RNA isolation, RT and qRT-PCR, Confocal microscopy, Agrobacterium mediated genetic transformation.
