Shijun You

I got my B.Sc. (Environmental Science) and M.Sc. (Forestry management) from the Dalhousie University and UBC in2007 and 2010, respectively.

I joined UBC Botany early 2013 to pursue the PhD under the jointsupervision of Dr. Carl Douglas and Dr. Murray Isman (Land and FoodSystem, UBC). The current project I am working on is a phylo-geographicalstudy on one of the destructive agricultural pests, diamondback moth(DBM, Plutella xylostella) in America by molecular-maker-basedanalysis. The DBM is believed to be the most widely distributed Lepidopteraagricultural pest world-wide. We are expecting to observe the expansion ofDBM distribution beyond where we currently know in the context of climatechange. I am interested in developing more sustainable strategies for DBMmanagement based on profound understanding of its population dynamics,especially from the molecular level.
