Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Botany
  • Enzyme

His primary scientific interests are in Hordeum vulgare, Salinity, Botany, Agronomy and Hordeum. His Hordeum vulgare study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Peroxidase, Reactive oxygen species, Superoxide dismutase and Nutrient. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Abiotic stress, Homeostasis, Positive correlation and Apoplast.

His Botany research includes elements of Biophysics and Efflux. When carried out as part of a general Agronomy research project, his work on Cultivar is frequently linked to work in Water content, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His Hordeum research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Domestication, Germplasm and Plant physiology.

His most cited work include:

  • Linking stomatal traits and expression of slow anion channel genes HvSLAH1 and HvSLAC1 with grain yield for increasing salinity tolerance in barley (1080 citations)
  • Screening plants for salt tolerance by measuring K+ flux: a case study for barley (368 citations)
  • Root plasma membrane transporters controlling K+/Na+ homeostasis in salt-stressed barley. (358 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Agronomy, Quantitative trait locus, Horticulture, Hordeum vulgare and Salinity. His study in Waterlogging, Cultivar, Resistance, Germplasm and Plant breeding are all subfields of Agronomy. A large part of his Quantitative trait locus studies is devoted to Doubled haploidy.

His studies deal with areas such as Chlorophyll and Homeostasis as well as Hordeum vulgare. His Salinity study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Reactive oxygen species, Shoot and Abiotic component. Meixue Zhou combines subjects such as Biophysics, Efflux and Arabidopsis with his study of Botany.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Quantitative trait locus (27.60%)
  • Horticulture (25.97%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Quantitative trait locus (27.60%)
  • Genetics (15.91%)
  • Gene (16.56%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Quantitative trait locus, Genetics, Gene, Agronomy and Salinity. Meixue Zhou studies Doubled haploidy which is a part of Quantitative trait locus. He works mostly in the field of Doubled haploidy, limiting it down to topics relating to Chromosome and, in certain cases, Major gene, as a part of the same area of interest.

His Salinity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Oryza sativa, Shoot, Horticulture and Abiotic component. His Horticulture study combines topics in areas such as Halophyte and Efflux. In general Hordeum vulgare, his work in Hordeum is often linked to Water content linking many areas of study.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Root vacuolar Na+ sequestration but not exclusion from uptake correlates with barley salt tolerance. (26 citations)
  • Soil and Crop Management Practices to Minimize the Impact of Waterlogging on Crop Productivity. (19 citations)
  • Soil and Crop Management Practices to Minimize the Impact of Waterlogging on Crop Productivity. (19 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Botany

His scientific interests lie mostly in Salinity, Gene, Abiotic component, Oryza sativa and Genetics. Meixue Zhou has researched Salinity in several fields, including Agronomy, Shoot, Horticulture and Oxidative stress. His Agronomy research incorporates themes from Quantitative trait locus, Molecular breeding and Stomatal conductance.

The concepts of his Quantitative trait locus study are interwoven with issues in Genetic marker, Fusarium, Locus and Candidate gene. As a part of the same scientific family, Meixue Zhou mostly works in the field of Oxidative stress, focusing on Cultivar and, on occasion, Seedling. His study in the field of Abiotic stress, DNA microarray and Proteomics is also linked to topics like Glucose dehydrogenase.
