I have 2 major research foci: first on the structural and biochemical basis of the plant immune system, and second on iron and zinc biofortification of rice using a transgenic approach. Of the former, I have recently applied the expertise in the plant immune response and an assay of the hypersentsitve response in tobacco to assess the effectiveness of extracts from hardwood pyrolysis to alleviate the damaging oxidative effects on plants of environmental stressors such as heat, drought, and frost. My goal is to engage with farming groups and to nurture student interest in sustainable means to protect crops against environmental and pathogen-associated stress.
