Research interest
Research focused on Genetics and Cultivar, with related work in Genome, Gene, CRISPR. Notable publications include 'A genome‐wide survey reveals abundant rice blast R genes in resistant cultivars', 'Identifying a large number of high-yield genes in rice by pedigree analysis, whole-genome sequencing, and CRISPR-Cas9 gene knockout', and 'Repeat-induced point mutation in Neurospora crassa causes the highest known mutation rate and mutational burden of any cellular life'.
