2021 Focus:
  1. The recombinant CotA protein was successfully used in the catalysis of humification process, and complementary experiment also demonstrated that laccase directly involved in the humification of catechol or lignin. This will help to develop technology used to stabilize organic matter in soils.
  2. In this study shifts in bacterial community associated with green manure soybean intercropping and edaphic properties in a tea plantation was demonstrated. This will serve as bases to develop strategies to increase microbial diversity in the tea plantation.
  3. We aimed to evaluate the effects of the ACC deaminase gene (acdS) in Pseudomonas azotoformans strain CHB 1107 on the nutrient uptake and growth of tomato plants under salt stress. The acdS mutant (CHB 1107M) of P. azotoformans CHB 1107 was obtained through bacterial conjugation. CHB 1107WT significantly reduced the production of ethylene and proline by tomato plants under salt stress, increasing the shoot and root dry weights of tomato plants compared with the noninoculated control and CHB 1107M. In addition, tomato plants inoculated with CHB 1107M showed a significant reduction in K (27.5%), Ca (23.0%), and Mn uptake (17.5%) compared with those inoculated with CHB 1107WT. These findings suggest that acdS in P. azotoformans is associated with the amelioration of salinity stress in tomato.

Achievements
Prof. Chiu-Chung Young used the latest technology to treated family food waste from Taoyuan City and converted into organic fertilizer in 3.5 hours during the period of African swine fever. This technology had been promoted to worldwide market, 42% in Mainland China, 27% in Taiwan, and 18% in Southeast Asia.

Unique Technologies : Cutting-Edge Technology-Microorganisms in Circular Agriculture
  1. Development of Microbial Species Resource
Academician Chiu-Chung Young had developed more than 8,000 strains and 2,500 species of functional bacteria as the source of target enzymes, which can handle various types of enzymes from agriculture, industry and cities. Organic waste, such as livestock manure, animal and plant waste, Chinese medicine residue and kitchen waste, provided the most suitable combination of customized enzymes. This technical makes the company a leader in organic waste treatment technology.
  1. Innovative Technology for Fast Treatment of Organic Waste
Technical of TTT obviously increases the efficiency in decomposition at least 100 times, which reduce process pollution and improve product safety. It also solves the odor, sewage, large area demand, and time-consuming problems in the traditional composting process.
2022 Focus:
  1. Develop innovative technologies for organic humification combined with inorganic catalysis, organic catalysis and biological (enzyme) catalysis, and innovative rapid processing of poultry and livestock manure into organic fertilizer demonstration operations.
  2. Tea plant-associated bacterial community influenced by conventional farming, organic farming or natural farming will be clarified, in order to develop strategies to increase microbial diversity in the tea plantation.
  3. We will evaluate the effects of overexpression of bacterial 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) deaminase on waterlogging tolerance in transgenic tomato plants.
