Summary
Plant transcription factors play critical roles in plant development. I focus on genetic, molecular analysis and investigating the regulation tomato transcription factors (TFs) in fruit development, ripening and related signal transduction systems with an emphasis on nutrient quality. The cloning and isolation of candidate ripening regulatory genes based on expression pattern or relationship to ripening-related signal transduction systems (e.g. ethylene, light), and functional analysis in transgenic plants. Moreover, utilization of tools for functional genomics with current targets of exploration including genome-wide expression profiling during ripening and under stress conditions. Recently, focused in the genome editing like CRISPR/Cas9 system to generate transcription factor mutants.
