Wenfang Zeng is currently a researcher and PhD supervisor at the Zhengzhou Fruit Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences. He has been selected as the part of the third batch of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences “Young Talents Program” cultivation project and also the Henan Province Outstanding Youth Fund project winners. He has presided over seven projects and participated in many projects, such as The National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC): Research on the Molecular Mechanism of Peach IAA1 and ERF4 Synergically Regulating Fruit Ripening and Softening; the National Natural Science Foundation Youth Program: Research on the Mechanism of Action of the Flavonoid Monooxygenase YUCCA11 in the Ripening and Softening Process of Peach Fruit; and the National Key Research and Development Program sub-project: Research on Fruit Texture of Peach and Kiwi Fruit. His research interests are in the biology of peach fruit. His specialty areas include the transcriptional and epigenetic regulation of ripening and post-harvest fruit quality maintenance.
