Exploring Genetic Frontiers
We are a group of researchers interested in understanding the role of artificial selection in shaping genomes. Our research primarily focuses on developing selective sweep methods and their application in domestic animals, systematically unraveling the genetic foundation of important economic traits in domestic animals through extensive genetic and omics data analysis, as well as elucidating the underlying molecular mechanisms underpinning complex traits.
In addition, we engage in traditional animal breeding, marker-assisted selection, genotype imputation, and genomic selection, dedicated to developing effective breeding plans and conservation strategies for genetic resources. We are committed to advancing the use of biostatistics, molecular quantitative genetics, bioinformatics, and evolutionary genomics in animal breeding, continually pushing the boundaries of both scientific research and practical applications in this field.
