2023 - Research.com Genetics in China Leader Award
2007 - Member of the National Academy of Sciences
2000 - Fellow, The World Academy of Sciences
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Genetics, Quantitative trait locus, Oryza sativa, Gene and Genetic marker. His study looks at the relationship between Genetics and fields such as Hybrid, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. His Quantitative trait locus research includes elements of Domestication, Agronomy, Molecular marker and Gene mapping.
His Oryza sativa research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Japonica, Cultivar, Poaceae, Botany and Genetically modified crops. As a member of one scientific family, Qifa Zhang mostly works in the field of Gene, focusing on Panicle and, on occasion, Crop and Plant genetics. His work deals with themes such as Epistasis, Inbred strain and Heterosis, which intersect with Genetic marker.
His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Gene, Oryza sativa, Genome and Quantitative trait locus. His Genetics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Japonica and Heterosis. The study incorporates disciplines such as Panicle, Poaceae, Botany, Biotechnology and Genetically modified crops in addition to Oryza sativa.
Qifa Zhang combines subjects such as Oryza and Computational biology with his study of Genome. His Quantitative trait locus research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Epistasis, Genetic analysis, Agronomy and Molecular marker. He interconnects Germplasm, Restriction fragment length polymorphism and Gene mapping in the investigation of issues within Locus.
His primary areas of investigation include Genetics, Gene, Genome, Oryza sativa and Hybrid. The Gene study combines topics in areas such as Evolutionary biology, Panicle and Germplasm. His Reference genome study, which is part of a larger body of work in Genome, is frequently linked to Structure and function, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His Oryza sativa study incorporates themes from Food security and Cell biology. In general Hybrid study, his work on Heterosis and Diallel cross often relates to the realm of Best linear unbiased prediction, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His Genome-wide association study study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Quantitative trait locus, Genetic association and DNA sequencing.
Qifa Zhang mainly focuses on Gene, Genome, Genetics, Germplasm and Oryza sativa. The study incorporates disciplines such as Panicle, Crop yield and Agronomy in addition to Gene. The various areas that Qifa Zhang examines in his Genome study include Global population, Domestication, Computational biology and Agroforestry.
His study in Genetics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Japonica, Subspecies and Hybrid. In Germplasm, Qifa Zhang works on issues like Locus, which are connected to Sterility, Cytoplasmic male sterility, Grain quality, Chromosome 12 and Brown planthopper. His Oryza sativa research integrates issues from Staple food, Segmental duplication, Reference genome, Functional genomics and Food security.
