Character experience

Yin Xiangchu, 1934 was born in Haimen City, Jiangsu Province in July.

1953, Yin Xiangchu, who graduated from Nantong Agricultural School in northern Jiangsu (now Nantong Vocational College of Science and Technology), took part in the locust control in Siyang as a county plant protection cadre. That national action planted seeds in his heart to study locusts and serve the people.

From 65438 to 0954, Yin Xiangchu was admitted to Shandong Agricultural College (now Shandong Agricultural University).

/kloc-0 graduated from the Department of Plant Protection of Shandong Agricultural College in July, 958. After graduation, he was assigned to teach in Qinghai Agricultural College, and later transferred to the Institute of Northwest Plateau Biology of China Academy of Sciences. He has served as director, deputy director and researcher of the Animal Research Office of Northwest Plateau Institute of Biology, China Academy of Sciences.

From 65438 to 0987, Yin Xiangchu was invited by the American Academy of Sciences to give a special report in Washington.

1995 10 was elected as an academician of China Academy of Sciences in June.

/kloc-0 was hired as a tenured professor by Hebei University in February, 1996.

200 1 was hired as distinguished professor by Shandong Agricultural University.

Major achievements

achievements in scientific research

Yin Xiangchu has 37 new genera and 37 new species 103 (as of March 20 19). It is revealed that the gradient variation of species morphological characteristics is intra-species variation caused by altitude, and it is clarified that the strong wind in plateau is not suitable for the degradation of locust wings, which leads to the degradation of vocal organs, and the degradation and disappearance of vocal organs leads to the degradation and disappearance of auditory organs. The species that live on the plateau and lack wings, speakers and listeners are the most evolved species and are unique to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The adaptability, evolutionary path and wingless types of grasshoppers in plateau were put forward, and a new classification system of Acridoidea in China was established. It was pointed out that Acridoidea in North America was the middle type of grasshopper evolution.

1982, Yin Xiangchu established a new classification system of Acridoidea in China. Locusts in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau published by 1984 provides important information for the research and control of locusts in this area. 1996 published the world list of locusts and their related species (English version), with more than 2 million words, and recorded 1758- 1990 all known locusts 226 1 genus,10/kloc-0.

personnel training

Yin Xiangchu must insist on encouraging young people to engage in scientific research. He said that although engaging in scientific research is boring and life-threatening, it is worthwhile to gain and create in scientific research, even if life is at risk.

2065438+0610127 October, Yin Xiangchu was invited to give a lecture entitled "My Road to Scientific Research-Retrospect and Prospect of Locust Classification" to the teachers and students of the School of Life Sciences of Hebei University. Yin Xiangchu combined his own research to explain the habits of locusts and related research for teachers and students. He reviewed his study and scientific research, and shared his work experience and scientific research experience in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, as well as the difficult process and achievements of writing books. He also expressed his views on the field of modern biological research and prospects for the future, and encouraged everyone to make use of Tu Youyou's research course on artemisinin, be good at finding out in the difficulties of scientific research and forge ahead.

Honor recognition

social service

Personality assessment

Yin Xiangchu has been rooted in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau for 38 years, and put forward new ideas such as plateau wingless locust, and established a new classification system of China Acridoidea-Yin Xiangchu classification system, which made China's research in this field reach the advanced level in the world.
