My master thesis topic is:

Development of an integrative diagnostic protocol for Citrus exocortis viroid (CEVd) and study of the viroid-host interactions

研發柑桔鱗砧類病毒整合性診斷偵測技術與探討類病毒與寄主間交互作用

ABSTRACT

In order to validate the Citrus exocortis viroid (CEVd) disease, we developed an integrative diagnostic protocol, including bio-index of symptoms, dot-blot hybridization, and RT-PCR techniques for CEVd detection. Moreover, the symptoms, the levels of CEVd genomic RNA and CEVd-derived small RNA, the pathogenesis-related genes and hormone-related genes expression are compared between two tomato cultivars. In this study, we developed several diagnosis methods for CEVd detection and also studied the molecular mechanism of viroid-host interactions.

I am a research assistant in Academia Sinica in Taiwan now. My laboratory is involved in bioinformatics and studies in the evolution of gene regulation.
