Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Agronomy
  • Photosynthesis

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Agronomy, Photosynthesis, Botany, Chlorophyll and Plant physiology. His work on Gossypium as part of his general Agronomy study is frequently connected to Morphology, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. In his study, Red edge, Stomatal conductance, Herbaceous plant and Sorghum is strongly linked to Dry weight, which falls under the umbrella field of Photosynthesis.

He works mostly in the field of Botany, limiting it down to topics relating to Horticulture and, in certain cases, Column, as a part of the same area of interest. His Plant physiology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Fertilizer and Crop yield. Duli Zhao combines subjects such as Biomass and Photosynthetically active radiation with his study of Crop yield.

His most cited work include:

  • Field crop responses to ultraviolet-B radiation: a review (379 citations)
  • Nitrogen deficiency effects on plant growth, leaf photosynthesis, and hyperspectral reflectance properties of sorghum (322 citations)
  • Influence of Potassium Deficiency on Photosynthesis, Chlorophyll Content, and Chloroplast Ultrastructure of Cotton Plants (282 citations)

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

Duli Zhao mainly investigates Agronomy, Photosynthesis, Horticulture, Cultivar and Botany. His Agronomy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Soil water and Canopy. The various areas that Duli Zhao examines in his Photosynthesis study include Fertilizer, Chlorophyll, Dry matter and Plant physiology.

His Horticulture study incorporates themes from Photoassimilate and Irrigation. His research in Cultivar tackles topics such as Sucrose which are related to areas like Starch. His work in the fields of Malvaceae, Fiber crop and Dry weight overlaps with other areas such as Bract.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (49.51%)
  • Photosynthesis (27.18%)
  • Horticulture (27.18%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Biotechnology (19.42%)
  • Agronomy (49.51%)
  • Cultivar (24.27%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Biotechnology, Agronomy, Cultivar, Soil water and Cane. Duli Zhao studies Crop which is a part of Agronomy. His Cultivar research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sugar and Stomatal conductance.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Photosynthesis, Photoassimilate, Shoot, Horticulture and Soil salinity in addition to Sugar. His Cane research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Saccharum, Sucrose, Lignin, Biomass and Yield. Duli Zhao has included themes like Field experiment and Canopy in his Saccharum study.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Registration of ‘CP 10‐1208’ Sugarcane (5 citations)
  • Biomass Yield and Carbohydrate Composition in Sugarcane and Energy Cane Grown on Mineral Soils (3 citations)
  • Registration of ‘CP 09‐1430’ Sugarcane (3 citations)
