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

Ke-Qin Zhang mainly investigates Fungus, Nematode, Biochemistry, Botany and Conidium. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Fermentation, Chemical constituents and Mutant. The various areas that Ke-Qin Zhang examines in his Nematode study include Bacteria, Cell wall, Ascomycota and Microbiology.

He studies Pathogen, a branch of Microbiology. The Protein biosynthesis, Biotransformation, Host–pathogen interaction and Glycosylation research Ke-Qin Zhang does as part of his general Biochemistry study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Nematocida, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. The study incorporates disciplines such as Tylenchoidea, Rhizosphere, Root microbiome and Phylogenetic tree in addition to Botany.

Between 2014 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Molecular mechanisms of nematode-nematophagous microbe interactions: basis for biological control of plant-parasitic nematodes. (93 citations)
  • Metagenomic insights into communities, functions of endophytes and their associates with infection by root-knot nematode, Meloidogyne incognita , in tomato roots (77 citations)
  • mir-233 Modulates the Unfolded Protein Response in C. elegans during Pseudomonas aeruginosa Infection (36 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Bacteria

His primary scientific interests are in Nematode, Ecology, Evolutionary biology, Biochemistry and Gene. His Nematode research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Agricultural crops, Biological pest control and Microbiology. Ke-Qin Zhang has included themes like Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria, Terra incognita, Bacteroidetes and Fungus in his Microbiology study.

His Evolutionary biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in SUPERFAMILY, Genome, Protease, Adaptation and Evolution of fungi. His work on Glycosylation, Escherichia coli and Affinity chromatography is typically connected to Heterologous expression as part of general Biochemistry study, connecting several disciplines of science. The concepts of his Gene study are interwoven with issues in Host, Cell wall and Mycelium.
