-Phytoremediation
for heavy metal contaminated land, especially screening the
wild plant species for ecological restoration or remediation
of contaminated soils, deciphering the processes of hyperaccumulators
for tolerating and accumulating excess metals, and applying
the agricultural technologies to improve the phytoremediation
efficiency
-Effect
of dissolved organic matter on the mobility and bioavailability
of contaminants in soil
-Taxonomy
and Distribution of Soils
Current
research:
Assessing
changes in cobalt tolerance of pasture resulting from nodulation,
and finding the approach to ameliorate Co-deficiency of fodder
crops. Identifying Co-chelating ligands within the xylem sap
and cells. Physiological and Biochemical Dissection of Cobalt
Accumulation by Plants (Australian Research Council Discovery
Project, Grant No. DP0558999)
Dissecting the heavy metal sequestration in some hyperaccumulators.
