Zhenzhu Xu

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Ecology
• Ecosystem
• Photosynthesis

Zhenzhu Xu spends much of his time researching Photosynthesis, Stomatal conductance, Agronomy, Ecology and Photosynthetic capacity. The study incorporates disciplines such as Perennial plant, Environmental change and Terrestrial ecosystem in addition to Photosynthesis. His Stomatal conductance research includes elements of Guard cell and Water-use efficiency.

His work in the fields of Agronomy, such as Water stress and Plant growth, intersects with other areas such as Management practices and Fight-or-flight response. His Photosynthetic capacity study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Shrub, Biomass and Ecosystem, Plant functional type. His work on Chlorophyll fluorescence as part of general Botany study is frequently linked to Lipid peroxidation, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His most cited work include:

• Responses of leaf stomatal density to water status and its relationship with photosynthesis in a grass (418 citations)
• Plant responses to drought and rewatering (261 citations)
• Effects of elevated CO2, warming and precipitation change on plant growth, photosynthesis and peroxidation in dominant species from North China grassland (199 citations)

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

Zhenzhu Xu mainly investigates Agronomy, Photosynthesis, Stomatal conductance, Botany and Biomass. His research investigates the connection between Agronomy and topics such as Water content that intersect with problems in Soil water. His Photosynthesis research incorporates elements of Perennial plant, Chlorophyll and Plant physiology.

His Botany study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Horticulture. His Biomass research integrates issues from Soil temperature and Ecosystem, Terrestrial ecosystem. His Ecosystem research incorporates themes from Growing season and Transpiration.
