Profile

      Ph D ,Professor,A teacher at the Poultry Rearing Room of the College of Animal Science and Technology, a permanent researcher at the Key Laboratory of Agricultural Animal Genetics, Breeding and  Reproduction of the Ministry of Education and the Hongshan Laboratory. A scientist at the Agricultural Science and Technology Innovation Action Post in Hubei Province, has long been engaged in the exploration of regulatory genes for important production and quality traits in poultry, as well as related research on genome selection. Led five National Natural Science Foundation projects, one National Key Research and Development Program project (project host),one major project of Hubei Hongshan Laboratory and many other projects.

The research achievements include:

  1. The first to use hens' semen storage ability as an important new reproductive trait of chickens to conduct independent breeding among Chinese chicken breeds, and preliminarily figured out the heritability and repeatability of hens' semen storage ability and many other important genetic parameters and studied part of its regulatory mechanism, discovered some molecular markers for the breeding of this trait, and selected a new strain of Tanniu Wenchang chicken with high sperm storage capacity. The goal was to extend the interval between artificial inseminations from 5 days to 10 days without reducing the fertilization rate compared to before the selection.

2. Establishing an F2 resource population by crossing Turpan fightingchickens and Lehorn chickens to study the recombination of heat tolerance and high egg production traits in chickens.

3. The regulation of chicken shank color transformation was studied, with the aim of utilizing sex-linked inheritance of shin color in chickens to achieve non-destructive sex identification of embryos.

4. Investigating the genetic mechanisms behind the specific characteristics of Danzhou chickens and using molecular biology methods to construct fast-growing and slow-growing feather self-distinguishing sex identification lines.

 Applied for and entered the actual examination of 6 invention patents, approved 4 invention patents, transferred 3 invention patents, and the corresponding author and co-corresponding author of 22 SCI papers in the past five years.
