Chengjun Zhang , professor of Kunming Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences. My previous studies were focus on the genome evolution, new gene structure evolution and alternative splicing evolution, the results had been published in Nature Genetics, PNAs, Plant Physiology, Bioinformatics and other journals. I’m a peer reviewer for plant cell, genome res and other journals. I’m the executive deputy director of Haiyan Engineering & Technology Center of Kunming Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the executive deputy secretary of China Association of New Plant Varieties. Now, my team are working on the genomes of Rhododendron, as well as the genome-assisted breeding, the identification system of Rhododendron varieties, and others.
