Research summary
AI-generated

Yun Zhou's research focuses on plant developmental biology, especially how meristems (the growth-generating tissues in plants) form and how sex determination occurs in fern gametophytes such as Ceratopteris richardii. The work combines molecular genetics, cell biology, and multi-omics approaches to study stem cell regulation, hormone signaling (like ABA and brassinosteroid pathways), and stress responses across various plant species including soybean and Plantago.
