He has used the bacillus that was originally a parasite in the plant as a vector to transfer the bug-resistant gene of the green bean into paddy rice. Tests show that the gene has indeed been transferred into the rice, but has not taken the next step to produce proteins.
目前他已成功地將醇融蛋白基因轉殖到水稻中，基因稻繁衍到第三代都繼續存在、表現該基因的特性。此外，他利用原本寄生在植物身上的農桿菌作為載體，將綠豆的抗蟲基因轉殖到水稻中，目前測試發現抗蟲基因確實已進入水稻中，但基因卻沒有進一步產生蛋白質。
