Dr. Honggui La was raised in Henan province which is located in the middle part of China. He is now a professor in Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, College of Life Sciences, Nanjing Agricultural University. He became a PhD advisor since 2013. He was elected as a memeber of "Program of Exellent Scientists in Jiangsu province" in 2016.
Dr. La obtained his bachelor degree in Henan Normal University in 1999, and his PhD degree in China Agricultural University in 2004. Later on, he jointed the first-class national biological institute--Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. Afterwards, he went to United States for postdoctral research. His postdoctral research lasted 6 years in 3 universities, Ohio State University (OSU), University of California, Riverside (UCR), and Purdue University. Following the postdoctoral career, he got a job in Shanghai Center for Plant Stress Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, as an associate professor. He got his professor position in Nanjing Agricultural University in 2013. He went to Nara Institute of Science and Technology of Japan (NAIST) as a visiting scholar in 2019, which was sponsored by a Joint visiting program between NSFC and JSPS.
Dr. La is currently a member of Editorial Board of an international plant journal--Journal of Plant Physiology.
Dr. La's research group focuses on plant epigenetics and crop molecular biology. For the research of plant epigenetics, model plant Arabidopsis is used to unravel the molecuar mechanisms underlying DNA demethylation, gene silencing, and impact of epigenetic modifications (DNA methylation, histone modifications) on the pre-mRNA splicing. For the research of crop molecular biology, model crop rice is used to discover useful genes responsible for elite agronomic traits, such as rice grain yield, stress tolerance, etc., through map-based cloning strategy. The follow-up studies after gene cloning include functional characterization and practical applications of such elite genes in rice breeding.
