    Studied phytoremediation of explosive contaminants (TNT

    RDX) by poplar tree and native grasses. Assessed gene expression of detoxification enzymes including glutathione-S-transferase. Created environmental model for phytoremediation of TNT from soil and assessed phytoremediation potential at a field site

    an active shooting range on a military base.
