SummaryBeing part of this esteemed space experiment provides us with the opportunity to showcase our research capability on a national level,” said Hong Kong-based biologist Lam Hon Ming. Through identification and characterization of key genes from elite germplasms that may enhance adaption to biotic and abiotic stresses, Lam envisions integrating cutting-edge academic technology with traditional knowledge from farmers to promote sustainable agriculture.InWorld Times 2014, his team successfully identified and cloned a salt-tolerant gene from wild soybean, which paved the way to improving agriculture on marginal lands.
