Molecular regulation of senescence and applied biotechnology in horticultural cropsy

报告人：Dr. Cai-Zhong Jiang

USDA-ARS Principal Investigator

简介：Dr. Jiang received a BS degree in Agronomy from the Guangxi Agricultural College in China. He received a MS degree and Ph.D. in Crop Sciences at the Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology in Japan. After graduation Dr. Jiang joined the Departments of Botany and Agronomy, Iowa State University in Ames as a Post-Doctoral Research Associate where he conducted studies of regulation of photosynthesis. In 2003 Dr. Jiang returned to Davis in the Department of Plant Sciences to conduct studies of the mechanism of regulation of floral senescence and abscission using virus-induced gene silencing technology. He joined the USDA-ARS staff in January 2006 as a Principal Investigator and serves as an adjunction faculty member with University of California at Davis.
