Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Botany

Genetics, Fusarium, Agronomy, Quantitative trait locus and Gene mapping are his primary areas of study. His is doing research in Restriction fragment length polymorphism, Genetic marker, Genome, Chromosome and Gene, both of which are found in Genetics. His Fusarium research includes elements of Resistance and Crown.

His research in Agronomy focuses on subjects like Horticulture, which are connected to Spore. His Quantitative trait locus study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Plant disease resistance, Allele and Plant breeding. As a part of the same scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Gene mapping, focusing on Genotype and, on occasion, Inbreeding.

His most cited work include:

  • Chromosomal rearrangements in the rye genome relative to that of wheat (374 citations)
  • RFLP-based genetic map of the homoeologous group 3 chromosomes of wheat and rye. (241 citations)
  • Nonhomoeologous translocations between group 4, 5 and 7 chromosomes within wheat and rye. (184 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His main research concerns Genetics, Quantitative trait locus, Gene, Agronomy and Fusarium. His work in Genome, Chromosome, Genetic marker, Genotype and Restriction fragment length polymorphism is related to Genetics. Chunji Liu focuses mostly in the field of Genetic marker, narrowing it down to topics relating to Botany and, in certain cases, Genetic variation.

The various areas that he examines in his Quantitative trait locus study include Plant disease resistance, Plant breeding, Allele, Locus and Inbred strain. The concepts of his Agronomy study are interwoven with issues in Horticulture and Gluten. Chunji Liu works mostly in the field of Fusarium, limiting it down to topics relating to Crown and, in certain cases, Hypha.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (74.33%)
  • Quantitative trait locus (59.36%)
  • Gene (36.36%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Genetics (74.33%)
  • Quantitative trait locus (59.36%)
  • Gene (36.36%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, Quantitative trait locus, Gene, Genotype and Locus. His is involved in several facets of Genetics study, as is seen by his studies on Genome, Fusarium, Candidate gene, Plant disease resistance and Single-nucleotide polymorphism. His Fusarium research integrates issues from Drought stress and Crown.

His Quantitative trait locus study combines topics in areas such as Phenotype, Plant breeding, Genetic marker, Allele and Inbred strain. His Gene research incorporates elements of Domestication, Agronomy and Hordeum. His Locus study incorporates themes from Genetic linkage and Botany.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Rapid transition from continental breakup to igneous oceanic crust in the South China Sea (81 citations)
  • Accelerated Generation of Selfed Pure Line Plants for Gene Identification and Crop Breeding. (34 citations)
  • Accelerated Generation of Selfed Pure Line Plants for Gene Identification and Crop Breeding. (34 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Botany

His primary areas of study are Genetics, Genotype, Quantitative trait locus, Genome and Gene. His research on Genetics often connects related topics like Hordeum vulgare. His Hordeum vulgare research includes themes of Cultivar, Allele and Major gene.

The Genotype study combines topics in areas such as Mycelium, Fusarium, Trichome and Hypha. His Quantitative trait locus research includes themes of Evolutionary biology, Identification, Botany, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Candidate gene. The concepts of his Genome study are interwoven with issues in Genome-wide association study, Linkage disequilibrium, UPGMA and Heritability.
