Dr. WU Jian-Qiang won the prize Otto-Hahn and rewardsfrom Max Planck <strong>Institute</strong> in 2008. Dr. WU Jian-Qiang and his research team wereintroduced to Key Laboratory <strong>of</strong> Economic Plants and Biotechnology, KIB inDecember, 2011 with him serving as the leader and researcher <strong>of</strong> the team.4. Stable Promotion <strong>of</strong> Talents Introduction ProgramsDr. Sergey Volis <strong>of</strong> Israel introduced to KIB through the abroad UrgentlyneededTalents ProjectDr. Sergey Volis, born in September, 1961, Israeli, now was a senior lecturerin Ben-Gurion University, Israel. He was graduated in Simpheropol University <strong>of</strong>Ukraine, the former Soviet Union and received his doctor's degree <strong>of</strong> ecology in Ben-Gurion University in Israel in 2002. The research directions <strong>of</strong> Dr. Sergey Volis includethe population genetics, molecular ecology and evolution and his research areasare as follows: (1) Evolutionary genetics; (2) Conservation Biology; (3) Molecularand ecological data analyzing. Dr. Sergey Volis has published over 40 papers at themainstream journals including Heredity, Journal <strong>of</strong> Applied Ecology, New Phytologist,Conservation Biology, American Naturalist, Evolution and Biological Journal <strong>of</strong>the Linnean Society. Dr. Sergey Volis was instructed into KIB through the abroad"Urgently-needed Talents Project" in September, 2012, and has been the leader <strong>of</strong> aresearch group in the Key Laboratory <strong>of</strong> Biodiversity and Biogeography since then.—— CONSTRUCTION OF TALENTS TEAM AND SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH PLANTPORMS ——
<strong>Kunming</strong> <strong>Institute</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Botany</strong>, <strong>Chinese</strong> <strong>Academy</strong> <strong>of</strong> SciencesAnnual ReportDr. LIU Ai-Zhong introduced to KIB as an Outstanding TalentDr. LIU Ai-Zhong, born in Octobber, 1969, Quanjiao County, Anhui, graduatedin KIB in July, 2001, with degree <strong>of</strong> Doctor <strong>of</strong> Science, is a doctoral supervisor.From October, 2001 to August, 2006, he had been engaged in the postdoctoralresearches respectively in Smithsonian Institution and Vanderbilt University, USA;from September, 2006 to December, 2008, engaged in the scientific research as aSenior Scientist and Assistant Research Pr<strong>of</strong>essor <strong>of</strong> Department <strong>of</strong> Plant Science <strong>of</strong>University <strong>of</strong> Georgia; in January, 2009, Dr. LIU Ai-Zhong returned to China andwas hired by Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden, CAS, being the leader <strong>of</strong> theGenetics and Breeding Innovation Research Group, chief researcher, selected into the"Hundred Talents Program (Overseas Outstanding Talents)" <strong>of</strong> CAS as a researcherand gained selective support; in March, 2009, hired by University <strong>of</strong> Science andTechnology <strong>of</strong> China as a gust pr<strong>of</strong>essor; in May, 2011, selected into "HundredOverseas High-end Talents Introduction Program <strong>of</strong> Yunnan Province". Dr. LIU Ai-Zhong is mainly engaged in the research <strong>of</strong> the molecular genetics <strong>of</strong> the importantplant resources (especially the oil seed plants), the molecular basis and geneticimprovement <strong>of</strong> the agronomic traits. By emphasizing the functional genomics andmolecular biology technology, he aimed to reveal the key functional genes and theirfunctional mechanism that can control the formation <strong>of</strong> the important agronomic traits,which can provide theoretical foundation and technical support for the practice <strong>of</strong>gene engineering <strong>of</strong> important agronomic traits. Dr. LIU Ai-Zhong has published over30 papers on the famous journals both at home and abroad including Genetics, BMCGenomics, American Journal <strong>of</strong> <strong>Botany</strong>, Taxon and Biomass and Bioenergy, etc. InOctober, 2012, Dr. LIU Ai-Zhong was introduced into Key Laboratory <strong>of</strong> EconomicPlants and Biotechnology <strong>of</strong> KIB through the national "Outstanding Talents Program"and became the leader <strong>of</strong> the research group and a researcher <strong>of</strong> the Laboratory.Dr. ZHANG Shi-Bao introduced to KIB as an Outstanding TalentDr. ZHANG Shi-Bao, born in March, 1969, Qujing, Yunnan, graduated in KIBin Septermber, 2005, received degree <strong>of</strong> Doctor <strong>of</strong> Science, a master tutor. He hasbeen engaged in the research <strong>of</strong> biology and physiological ecology <strong>of</strong> arethusa fora long time and by adopting the physiological ecology and phylogeny independentcomparative method, he is able to study the photosynthesis, light protectionmechanism, functional traits, and relation between water and nutrient <strong>of</strong> Meconopsis,Cypripedium, Paphiopedilum and Dendrobium, understand the evolution andecological adaptation <strong>of</strong> the key functional traits <strong>of</strong> the plants and the physiologicalmechanism <strong>of</strong> plants' adaptation to the environmental stress. Up to now, Dr. ZHANGShi-Bao has published over 50 papers both at international and national journals—— CONSTRUCTION OF TALENTS TEAM AND SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH PLANTPORMS ——
