Abstract:
Kong Fanjiang, Ph.D. in Agriculture, is a Professor at the School of Life Sciences, Guangzhou University, and a doctoral supervisor. His research focuses on soybean developmental genetics and molecular breeding. He primarily engages in the identification and regulation of genes controlling complex important agronomic traits in soybeans, as well as molecular design breeding research. He has cloned a series of key genes controlling soybean adaptability and yield traits, elucidated the molecular mechanisms underlying photoperiod regulation of soybean flowering, revealed the molecular genetic basis of soybean photoperiod phenomena and photoperiod sensitivity, and demonstrated the selection patterns of photoperiod adaptability genes during domestication and variation processes, as well as their crucial mechanisms in enhancing soybean adaptability and yield.
