More About Me

Dr. Shuyu Liu is an Associate Professor in small grain genetics and genomics. He got his Ph.D. in plant breeding and genetics from University of Missouri-Columbia in 2003, M.S. from Colorado State University in 1998 and BS from Shandong Agricultural University in 1988. He joined Texas A&M AgriLife Research in 2010. He was a research scientist in Virginia Tech from 2007 to 2010 and a biologist and visiting fellow in Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada from 2003 to 2007. He has been working on gene and loci mapping for disease, insect, yield and its components, superior end-use quality of cereals and dry bean, marker development and selection and prediction for wheat breeding. Genetic and genomic studies of important traits of wheat in the US Great Plains. Traits include drought and heat tolerance, resistance to diseases (leaf, stem and stripe rust, wheat streak mosaic virus), and arthropods (greenbug, Russian wheat aphid, hessian fly, and wheat curl mite) as well as good end-use quality. Both traditional and molecular breeding techniques are used to develop germplasm lines with one or more target traits. Genomic techniques include gene/QTL mapping, molecular marker identification, validation and utilization, high throughput KASP SNP screening, and gene cloning. Gene functional analysis will be used to understand and improve those target traits.
