Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Gene expression

His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, RNA, Small RNA, Trans-acting siRNA and Small interfering RNA. With his scientific publications, his incorporates both Genetics and Gametophyte. His work carried out in the field of Small RNA brings together such families of science as Small nucleolar RNA and Long non-coding RNA.

His Small nucleolar RNA research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in RNA silencing and Cell biology. His Small interfering RNA study combines topics in areas such as Gene silencing, microRNA and RNA-Directed DNA Methylation. MicroRNA is a primary field of his research addressed under Gene.

His most cited work include:

  • Genome sequencing and analysis of the model grass Brachypodium distachyon (1433 citations)
  • The Medicago genome provides insight into the evolution of rhizobial symbioses (939 citations)
  • MicroRNAs as master regulators of the plant NB-LRR defense gene family via the production of phased, trans-acting siRNAs (483 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Genetics, microRNA, RNA, Small RNA and Gene. His study involves Regulation of gene expression, Gene silencing, DNA methylation, Trans-acting siRNA and RNA silencing, a branch of Genetics. His work deals with themes such as Plant species, Messenger RNA, Function and Small interfering RNA, which intersect with microRNA.

The various areas that he examines in his RNA study include Arabidopsis and Ectopic expression. Jixian Zhai combines subjects such as Argonaute, Small nucleolar RNA, Long non-coding RNA, Cell biology and Dicer with his study of Small RNA. His studies deal with areas such as Pathogen and Botany as well as Gene.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (74.42%)
  • microRNA (37.21%)
  • RNA (48.84%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2021)?

  • Arabidopsis (23.26%)
  • Cell biology (29.07%)
  • Computational biology (19.77%)

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

Arabidopsis, Cell biology, Computational biology, Gene and RNA are his primary areas of study. His study in Arabidopsis is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Arabidopsis thaliana and Small RNA. His research integrates issues of Chalcone synthase and Dicer in his study of Small RNA.

The various areas that Jixian Zhai examines in his Cell biology study include Methylation, Gene expression, DNA methylation, Anthocyanin and Chromatin. His work on Regulation of gene expression, Small interfering RNA, Gene silencing and Molecular mechanism as part of general Gene study is frequently connected to Family member, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. The concepts of his RNA study are interwoven with issues in DNA and Genomics.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Plant 22-nt siRNAs mediate translational repression and stress adaptation. (19 citations)
  • Post-transcriptional splicing of nascent RNA contributes to widespread intron retention in plants. (18 citations)
  • The Dynamic Kaleidoscope of RNA Biology in Plants. (8 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Gene expression

His main research concerns RNA, Computational biology, Arabidopsis, DNA and Cell biology. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Genomics and RNA. His Computational biology research includes elements of Cell, Endosperm, Robustness, Nanopore sequencing and Alternative splicing.

His Arabidopsis research encompasses a variety of disciplines, including Big data, Web site, Online database, Pipeline and Raw data. His DNA study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Regulation of gene expression, Gene silencing, Endogeny and Small interfering RNA. As a part of the same scientific study, he usually deals with the Cell biology, concentrating on Gene and frequently concerns with Cytoplasm.
