Title: Innovations of Qun Wan in Agricultural Science
Introduction
Qun Wan is a notable inventor based in Nanjing, China. He has made significant contributions to agricultural science, particularly in the field of pest management. With a total of 2 patents, his work focuses on enhancing the efficiency of pesticide use through innovative biological mechanisms.
Latest Patents
Qun Wan's latest patents include groundbreaking research on plasma membrane intrinsic aquaporins. These inventions are designed for absorbing and transporting neonicotinoid insecticides. The first patent discloses a Chinese cabbage plasma membrane intrinsic aquaporin, characterized by an amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO. 2. The nucleotide sequence of the encoding gene BraPIP2;1 is detailed in SEQ ID NO. 1. This aquaporin responds sensitively to neonicotinoid insecticides such as thiamethoxam and imidacloprid. It mediates the transmembrane transport of these insecticides, promoting their accumulation in plant roots and leaves. This has important application value in guiding efficient pesticide use and developing new systemic pesticides.
