研究方向1：植物修復(fù)基因工程及食品生物技術(shù)
土壤重金屬污染是全球面臨的重要環(huán)境問題之一。土壤污染的重金屬可通過農(nóng)作物吸收而進(jìn)入食物鏈嚴(yán)重影響食品安全并危及人類健康。植物修復(fù)基因工程是解決土壤重金屬污染的重要途徑之一，然而，尋找和發(fā)掘耐受重金屬毒害且調(diào)控重金屬超量積累（或降低重金屬吸收）的關(guān)鍵基因并闡明其作用機(jī)理則是植物修復(fù)基因工程獲得成功并從源頭上控制農(nóng)產(chǎn)品食品安全的關(guān)鍵。
本研究方向主要通過遺傳學(xué)途徑，篩選和克隆涉及植物重金屬超量積累（或降低重金屬吸收）的關(guān)鍵基因，并闡明其作用機(jī)理。該研究不僅有助于揭示植物耐受重金屬毒害的分子機(jī)理，而且可為利用植物修復(fù)技術(shù)治理土壤中重金屬污染提供新的基因資源并為從源頭上控制農(nóng)產(chǎn)品食品安全提供新的技術(shù)途徑。
研究方向2：植物抗逆分子生物學(xué)
糧食始終是關(guān)系到國計(jì)民生和國家安危的重要問題，糧食安全是國家安全的物資基礎(chǔ)。以模式植物為材料，通過遺傳學(xué)途徑，篩選和克隆抗逆關(guān)鍵基因，闡明其功能及作用機(jī)制，并用于農(nóng)作物抗逆分子遺傳改良。該研究不僅對(duì)于揭示植物抗逆分子機(jī)理具有重要的理論意義，而且為作物抗逆遺傳改良提供新的基因資源。本研究可獲得具有自主知識(shí)產(chǎn)權(quán)的新基因。
