Research
I am very interested in plant response to abiotic stress and environmental change. I am also
interested in microbial contributions to these responses. In recent years, I have studied sexual
differences in responses to drought and heavy metal in Populus cathayana. In the following
several years, I am more interested in the microbial contributions to these responses.
