The research interests are mainly focused on understanding the mechanisms underlying plant stress and phytohormone gibberellin signal transduction by taking advantages of multiple approaches involving functional genomics, molecular genetics, biochemical and other approaches, aiming to find novel components in stress and gibberellin signaling pathways, and we are also interested in exploring epigenetic regulatory machinery for gibberellin and stress-responsive gene expression. Another interest is to investigate the cross-talk between gibberellin and stress hormone abscisic acid in plant development and environmental responses.
