Research in my laboratory is focused around elucidating the principles of cell wall biosynthesis and regulation of cell wall formation. Our research goals are 1) to understand how plants regulate their secondary cell wall formation to build up the plant body, particularly in tree species; and 2) to innovate the plant cell wall knowledge for improvement of plant traits, such as wood property and crop lodging resistance.
