TEACHING AREA

Sugarcane   Breeding

RESEARCH INTEREST:

Genetic   breeding of sugarcane, molecular biology, germplasm resources, and   cytogenetics.

RESEARCH HIGHLIGHT

Deng   lab's research is mainly dedicated to sugarcane genetic breeding, utilizing   techniques such as GISH, FISH, and Oligo-FISH to study germplasm resources,   chromosome inheritance and mechanisms in germplasm hybridization, studying   the relationship between important sugarcane traits and chromosomes, and   developing molecular markers.
