Research Area:
Themajor research interests of our lab have been focused on fruit postharvest physiology and pathology, including 3 parts: (1) Pathogenic mechanisms of fungal pathogens and biotechnology for control of postharvest diseases in horticultural crops; (2) Molecular mechanisms of fungal toxin synthesis and control technology; (3) Molecular mechanisms of fruit ripening and senescence and biochemistry basic for maintaining quality of harvested fruit. (4) Apoptosis of biocontrol egents and genetic improvement technology.
