1956年华南农科院黄耀祥院士培育成功第一个矮秆水稻品种“广场矮”，矮秆品种的培育和推广是第一次“绿色革命”的标志，使得中国和东南亚水稻产量得到大幅度提升，然而，也导致化肥的大量使用，造成环境和水体的污染。第一次绿色革命的遗传基础是赤霉素合成关键基因GA20氧化酶（SD1）的突变。

       随着基因组学的发展，如何通过解析水稻营养高效利用的分子基础，利用现代技术，培育“少施化肥，少打农药，节水抗旱，优质高产”的设计型作物水稻新品种，开启新的绿色革命！这是我们研究团队的新使命！

       团队始终把教书育人作为最核心目标，不断完善教育理念。在科研上，倡导“快乐科学 (Happy Science)”理念，以兴趣为导向，激发科研人员积极性和主动性，并将基础研究和应用实践相结合。

        我们的理念 “building a stage for each dreamer!” 

        你带着梦想而来，我们亦师亦友，携手前行，在你离开的时候，人们会发现一个全新的你！

        让我们带着梦想一起成长！
