报告人简介：

Dr. van der Knaap is a plant geneticist and molecular biologist. In September 2015, she moved her program to Horticulture and the Center of Applied Genetic Technologies at the University of Georgia, Athens. Her research is focused on the regulation of fruit shape and size of tomato and other Solanaceous crops. In addition, she is also involved in several projects including SNP discovery in tomato, the development of COS markers for comparative mapping in the Rosaceae and their application for understanding variation in fruit size, using genomic tools to identify interspecific reproductive barriers in the tomato clade, auxin-regulated fruit development in Arabidopsis and tomato, and the impacts of pepper domestication on the evolution of insect herbivores and plant microbes in different ecological zones.
