Researchers led by Professors Feng Jiancan and Tan Bin from the School of Horticulture have made significant breakthroughs in the genetic improvement of key traits and germplasm innovation in peaches. Their team has published a series of research papers in internationally renowned journals such as Plant Biotechnology Journal, New Phytologist, and Horticulture Research. These papers cover topics including peach genomics, transient genetic transformation systems, and the molecular mechanisms underlying the formation of important traits.
The findings provide genomic tools and transient transformation systems for peach biology and functional genomics research. Additionally, they offer a theoretical foundation for the formation and improvement of traits such as peach tree architecture. This research marks an important advancement in the field of peach genetics and breeding.
