Our group are interested in the genetic dissection of key agronomic and novel traits in legumes, soybean in particular. Currently, we use soybean and other legumes as the study system to 1) understand the fate determination and differentiation of axillary meristems that shape the unique plant architecture of soybean in which branches/inflorescences are formed in each node; 2) elucidate molecular mechanisms and genetic regulatory network on the regulation of inflorescence morphogenesis; we are particularly interested in how acetylation and deacetylation, among other epigenetic regulation, determine the multi-florus and multi-podded high-yielding traits in soybean; 3) reveal the fundamental biological basis underlying source-sink balance that controls legume grain filling, and thereby reproductive success; 4) study evolutionary developmental mechanisms on the phenotypical diversification of carpels and pods in legumes using comparative and multi-omics tools.
