Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Kang-Cai Wang"
- Kang-Cai Wang's research primarily focuses on the effects of environmental stresses, such as drought and salinity, on the physiological and biochemical characteristics of medicinal plants, particularly Schizonepeta tenuifolia and other related species.
- His findings indicate that both drought and salinity significantly alter glandular trichome density, stomatal density, ion absorption, and the composition of essential oils, thereby impacting the plants’ growth and secondary metabolite accumulation.
- Additionally, Wang's studies explore the interactions of various nutrient forms and fertilizers, such as nitrogen and zinc, on the growth and productivity of herbaceous plants, contributing to a better understanding of optimal cultivation practices for these species.
