My research is focused on the regulation of plant primary metabolism in response to environmental inputs including abiotic stresses. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) based metabolomics and metabolic flux analyses are employed for dissecting the metabolic phenotypes. I am also interested in molecular mechanisms regulating a metabolic network with special focus on the functions of dynamic enzyme-enzyme interactions.
