Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Rensen Zeng"
- Rensen Zeng's recent research explores the role of calcium dynamics in plant senescence, specifically focusing on how cyclic nucleotide-gated channels (CNGCs) impact leaf aging in rice and the interaction between hormonal pathways in plants exposed to cadmium stress.
- The studies also investigate the defense mechanisms of plants against herbivores, including the role of plant latex in lettuce and the effects of nitrogen application on the insecticide tolerance of Spodoptera litura in maize.
- Additionally, his work delves into the molecular and epigenetic responses of rice to both herbivory and abiotic stresses, particularly concerning histone acetylation in jasmonic acid signaling and the functionality of microRNA-derived peptides in metal stress tolerance.
