Daoxin XIE

Daoxin XIE is a Faculty member in the School of Life Sciences at Tsinghua University. His research focuses on plant hormone biology, particularly the perception and signaling mechanisms of jasmonate and strigolactone. Xie has held various positions, including Professor at Tsinghua University since 2006, and has contributed to numerous publications in prestigious journals such as Nature Communications and Molecular Plant. He has also been recognized as an Academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. His work explores the molecular mechanisms underlying plant defense responses and hormone signaling pathways.

Daoxin Xie is a professor in the School of Life Sciences at Tsinghua University, specializing in plant biology. His research focuses on the molecular mechanisms underlying plant hormone signaling, particularly jasmonate and gibberellin pathways, and their roles in plant development and defense. His work explores the interactions between transcription factors, such as MYB21, MYB24, and bHLH proteins, and their regulatory roles in processes like stamen development, anthocyanin accumulation, and trichome initiation. Additionally, he investigates the function of ubiquitin ligases, such as SCF COI1, in mediating jasmonate signaling and plant fertility. His research also extends to the genetic basis of plant domestication, including the role of genes like TAC1 and DWARF14 in rice growth traits.
