Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Botany

His primary areas of study are Biochemistry, Chloroplast, Photoinhibition, Botany and Photosynthesis. In general Biochemistry study, his work on Thylakoid, Wild type, Solanaceae and Northern blot often relates to the realm of Antiporter, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His Chloroplast research incorporates themes from Genetically modified tomato, Hsp70, Lycopersicon and APX.

His work carried out in the field of Photoinhibition brings together such families of science as Unsaturated fatty acid, Acyltransferase, Electron transport chain and P700. He focuses mostly in the field of Botany, narrowing it down to matters related to Abscisic acid and, in some cases, Cell biology and Solanum. His work on Photosynthesis deals in particular with Photosystem II and Photosystem.

His most cited work include:

  • The cotton GhNHX1 gene encoding a novel putative tonoplast Na(+)/H(+) antiporter plays an important role in salt stress. (213 citations)
  • Overexpression of chloroplastic monodehydroascorbate reductase enhanced tolerance to temperature and methyl viologen-mediated oxidative stresses (114 citations)
  • The function of chloroplastic NAD(P)H dehydrogenase in tobacco during chilling stress under low irradiance. (96 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, Photosynthesis, Photoinhibition, Botany and Chloroplast. His work in APX, Reactive oxygen species, Thylakoid, Genetically modified tomato and Peroxidase is related to Biochemistry. The various areas that Qing-Wei Meng examines in his Photosynthesis study include Chlorophyll and Alternative oxidase.

His Photoinhibition study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Molecular biology, Xanthophyll, Zeaxanthin epoxidase and Photosystem. The Botany study combines topics in areas such as Genetically modified crops, Abscisic acid, Horticulture and Cell biology. His Chloroplast study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Transgene, Lycopersicon, Wild type, Solanaceae and DNAJ Protein.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (52.58%)
  • Photosynthesis (32.99%)
  • Photoinhibition (30.93%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2020)?

  • Cell biology (20.62%)
  • Transgene (21.65%)
  • Wild type (15.46%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Cell biology, Transgene, Wild type, Chloroplast and Photosynthesis. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Solanum and Gene expression. His work deals with themes such as Genetically modified tomato and Ripening, which intersect with Solanum.

His studies examine the connections between Transgene and genetics, as well as such issues in Malondialdehyde, with regards to Escherichia coli, Nicotiana tabacum and Chaperone. Chloroplast and Botany are commonly linked in his work. In his study, Chlorophyll is strongly linked to Carotenoid, which falls under the umbrella field of Genetically modified crops.

Between 2017 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Whirly1 enhances tolerance to chilling stress in tomato via protection of photosystem II and regulation of starch degradation. (24 citations)
  • SUMO E3 Ligase SlSIZ1 Facilitates Heat Tolerance in Tomato. (24 citations)
  • Cold-regulated protein (SlCOR413IM1) confers chilling stress tolerance in tomato plants. (13 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Botany

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cell biology, Chloroplast, Transgene, Photosynthetic capacity and Photosystem II. His Cell biology study incorporates themes from Malondialdehyde, Oxidative stress and Heat shock protein, Hsp70. Qing-Wei Meng performs integrative study on Chloroplast and Sense.

His Transgene research includes elements of Antioxidant, Chaperone, Nicotiana tabacum, Escherichia coli and Endoplasmic reticulum. His Photosynthetic capacity study is concerned with the field of Photosynthesis as a whole. The concepts of his Photosystem II study are interwoven with issues in Wild type and Enzyme.
