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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Gene, Soil salinity, Agronomy, Cell biology and Heat shock factor. His Soil salinity study is focused on Salinity in general. The Salinity study combines topics in areas such as Sowing, Major gene, Soil pH, Jerusalem artichoke and Bulk soil.

His Agronomy study incorporates themes from Photosynthesis, Nutrient cycle and Nutrient management. The various areas that he examines in his Photosynthesis study include Chlorophyll, Crop yield, Nitrogen deficiency and Chlorophyll a. His Gene expression research integrates issues from NADPH oxidase and Enzyme.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Application of chlorophyll fluorescence performance indices to assess the wheat photosynthetic functions influenced by nitrogen deficiency. (72 citations)
  • GABA-Alleviated Oxidative Injury Induced by Salinity, Osmotic Stress and their Combination by Regulating Cellular and Molecular Signals in Rice (22 citations)
  • ZmHsf05, a new heat shock transcription factor from Zea mays L. improves thermotolerance in Arabidopsis thaliana and rescues thermotolerance defects of the athsfa2 mutant. (15 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Enzyme

His primary scientific interests are in Agronomy, Soil salinity, Salinity, Photosynthesis and Halophyte. His work deals with themes such as Soil water, Soil pH, Jerusalem artichoke and Bulk soil, which intersect with Agronomy. He has included themes like Glycine, Ion homeostasis, Cultivar, Horticulture and Phosphate in his Soil salinity study.

His Major gene research extends to Salinity, which is thematically connected. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Crop yield, Nitrogen deficiency and Chlorophyll a. His research in Halophyte intersects with topics in Sustainable agriculture, Soil quality, Land degradation and Environmental protection.
