Add.: Ocean University of China, Yushan Campus, Scientific Building, 5 Yushan Road, 266003, Qingdao, P.R.C.
Research Interests
My research mainly focusses on 1) fungal taxonomy and resource on the basis of phylogenetic and morphological analyses; 2) Microbial molecular ecology and macroecology using metabarcoding, meta-genomics/transcriptomics/bolomics approaches, as well as high-throughput culturing; 3) The ecological functions performed by fungal communities in various marine environments including coastal and deep-sea ecosystems, which can be hijacked and used for biotechnological applications.、
