Research Interests:
My recent study aims to: (1). infer the historical biogeography of different eco-type groups of small mammals in China based on fossils and molecular data. (2). study the morphological evolution of mammals (including body form, size and shape variation of important organs), and to identify the phylogenetic and ecological concordance of these form changes. (3). compare the phylogeographic structure in the representative species of different eco-type groups, and to trace back the historical global environmental change which induced population expansion or contraction, gene flow, and transformation of distribution patterns in these animals. (4). use genomic data to understant the diet, parasites, evolution history and population genetics of small mammals in China.
