research interests
• exploration of genes or cis-regulatory elements determining important plant (crop) traits and their regulation mechanisms
we are interested in applying genetic and epigenomic profiling methods to discover gene or non-coding regulatory elements across diverse plant species including cotton, rice, common/hairy vetch, and brassicaceae vegetables. these methods include atac-seq, chip-seq at whole-genome or single-cell levels. integrating with genome-editing technologies we are beginning to edit cis-regulatory elements to new germplasms with improved traits.

• structure and evolution of plant centromeres
the centromere is a chromosomal region that plays a key role in faithful segregation of chromosomes during cell division. in contrast to the centromere’s conserved cellular function, centromeric dna is highly diverse, which has been one of the most intriguing enigmas in biology. we are interested in studying the structure, function, and evolution of plant centromeric chromatin. we will use the chromatin immunoprecipitation combing with next-generation sequencing (chip-seq) to identify the functional centromere chromatin in plants, and to elucidate the structure, function, and evolution of plant centromere chromatin. and one of our long-term goals is to develop plant artificial chromosomes to help the genetic improvement in crops.

• plant molecular cytogenetic
fluorescence in situ hybridization (fish) is a reliable cytological technique for chromosome identification and further fully characterizing the genome. based on this tech, we will make efforts on the studies of plant genome karyotyping, chromosomal evolution and structural diversity, chromosomal spatial organization, and chromatin epigenetic modification.

PhD international students in plant genetics and genomics research:
We are currently seeking international PhD students to join our research team, with a primary focus on plant (cotton, rice, common/hairy vetch, and brassicaceae vegetables) genetics and genomics in wang lab at nantong university, china. this is an exciting opportunity to work on cutting-edge research projects that aim to advance our understanding of genetic mechanisms in plants. successful candidates will have the chance to collaborate with leading scientists, utilize state-of-the-art facilities, and contribute to impactful discoveries in the field. if you are passionate about plant genetics and are looking for a dynamic and supportive research environment, we encourage you to apply and become part of our innovative team. experimental skills, experience in cotton or crop genetics and the ability to work in a distributed team are required. interested candidates are welcome to establish contact via email to kaiwang92@sina.com
