Breeder. Born in Qixian, Henan Province. Graduated from the Department of Agronomy, Institute of Northwest Agronomy in 1940.Professor, Institute of Northwest Agronomy .
Attzching grest importance to wheat character and relationship between ecological environment and cultural condition and creating unique selection method, Zhao selected some improved wheat varieties such as “Bima No.1”,“Bima No.4”,“6028”,“Hight Yield No.3”, “Aifeng No.3”,“Aifeng No.3” and “Xinong No.85” and made significant contributions to wheat production along the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River. “Bima No.1” was planted in an area of 6 million hectares in 1959, the largest area for a single variety of wheat so far. “6028” , a variety of midge resistant, was planted in an area of over 300,000 hectares, which recovered and developed wheat production in midge-plagued areas in Shanxi, Guanzhong and other provinces and regions. The planting area of “High Yield No. 3” in 1976 reached 2 million hectares, the largest one in the Huang-Huai wheat region. The breeding and popularization of “Aifeng No. 3” have promoted the development of dwarfing breeding and “Xinong No. 85”is a successful example of breeding wheat resistant to scab in North China.
He became Member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1955.

1955年被選聘為中國科學院院士(學部委員)。
Phytopathologist and microbiologist. Born in Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province. Graduated from Jinling University, Nanjing in 1924. Went to USA in 1928 and received Ph.D. from Iowa State Uneversity. Professor and honorary president, Beijing University of Agriculture.
Yu improved new species of smut-resistant wheat, corruptresistant soybean and blast-resistant rice, pioneered the study of physiological races of smut fungus for the grass family crops in China,and conducted extensive and systematical investigations on the disease for millet and broad bean, making significant cintributions to the prevention and treatment of the apple tree putridity and millet red leaf virus disease. He was the first in China to launch the study of gibberelin. He cultured fine fungal species and, after long time research, proposed the technological process for gibberelin fermentation and the purification techniques. In the study of heterocaryon inheritance for Fusarium moniliformae, he brought to light that there are three kinds of heterocaryon made up of different nucleus shapes,and expounded the problem whether the heterocaryosis is universally existed in nature, which was argued for a long time in the world. His work attracted great attention from the scientific word.
He became Member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1955.

侯光炯1905.05.07~1996.11.04
土壤學家。上海金山人。1928年畢業于北京農業大學農化系。西南農業大學教授,自然免耕研究所所長,從事土壤學教學與科研工作達60年之久。在土壤肥力和土壤地理研究方面發現“光肥平衡”日周期變化一個事實,從而開辟了土壤膠體熱力學新領域。1986年通過鑒定的水田自然免耕新技術,至1988年底已在南方13個省推廣2200多萬畝,增產率在15%以上。為了適應土壤肥力研究的需要,他又創建了土壤膠體物理—土壤粘韌率和粘韌曲線,以及土壤膠體熱力學十聯式PH兩種測定方法,并擬定了土壤肥力分類體系,為制定我國土地利用規劃提供了科學依據。
1955年被選聘為中國科學院院士(學部委員)。
Pedologist. Born in Jinshan, Shanghai. Graduated from the Department of Agricultural Chemistry, Beijing Agriculture University in 1928. Professor, Southwestern Agriculture University, and director,Soil Virginzation Resezrch Institute.
Hou has been engaged in the teaching and research on pedology and soil fertility for 60 years.In 1960, he discovered the close relationship between the sun and the soil, namely, the daily fluctuation ratio of “photosynthesis-nutrient-supplying equilibrium”, thus opening a new field of thermodynamic behavior of soil colloids. His new technique of “ soil virginization of rice paddy fields ” passed the appraisal in 1986 and had been popularized on 1.47 million hectares in 13 provinces in South China by the end of 1988. Estimation shows that an increase of 15% in production was achieved. In order to meet the demand of new methods for promoting soil fertility research , he devised two special tests, one was soil colloid physics, namely soil plasticity ratios and plasticity curves, and the other was the thermodynamic behavior of soil colloid activity index—10 unit type of soil pH. At the same time, he worked out the soil physiographical colloid-complex classification system which provided a scientific basis for designing land use plans.
He became Member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1955.

Medical expert. Born in Portugal Colony Timor Island. Graduated from Peking Union Medical College in 1929. Received MD from New York State University, USA Honorary pressident, Beijing Friendship Hospitial, and professor and director, Beijing Tropical Medicine Research Institute.
Zhong was the first tu prove that the Chinese phlebotomus chinesis is the sandfly vector of kala-azar infection. He also proved that the kala-azar can produce a kind of hypersplenism, suggested a method of bone marrow puncture, and applied the Chung’s kalaazar complement fixation test in clinical diagnosis. He was the first to find a new kind of lymph glandular type of kala-azar. During his research on relapsing fever, he corrected some erroneous theories of foreign scholars and set up a new theory which was accepted by the international medical circles. He discovered 8 new species and subspecies of Paragonimus and was the first to find that Tricular snails are the first intermediary host of paragonimus szechuanensis. He made great contributions to the etiology, pathogen, routes of infection,diagnosis and treatment of leptospirosis, chonorchiasis sinensis, leprosy and other diseases.
He became Member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1955.
