Dr. Wang's expertise is in breeding and molecular genetics, particularly in the use of molecular markers and other biotechnology tools to assist in ornamental plant breeding and genetic mapping in horticultural species (trees, shrubs, and herbaceous species). His initial work will be on ornamental plant horticultural traits associated molecular marker development and genomic mapping. These molecular markers will address some important horticultural gene inheritance and be applied in marker-aid selection in ornamental molecular breeding program. His final goal will develop broadly adaptive ornamental cultivars with desired horticultural traits, disease/insect resistance and environment tolerance.
