Jinping Fan studies the genetics and molecular biology of plants, with a focus on flower development and biochemical pathways in Oriental lilies, stress tolerance (drought, salt, nitrogen/phosphorus deficiency) in crops like garlic, soybean, and tobacco, and genetic traits in wheat breeding. Much of the work involves cloning and functionally characterizing specific genes to understand how plants produce scent compounds, develop flowers, or withstand environmental stress. This research could interest students wanting hands-on experience in molecular plant biology, gene cloning techniques, and crop improvement.

Publication output has been modest but fairly steady over the last decade, with a slight increase in the most recent years (2023-2025) after a gap around 2017-2018 and 2022.
