Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Yunna Zhu"
- Yunna Zhu's recent research focuses on enhancing the nutritional quality and stress resilience of various plants, particularly through the application of treatments such as sodium selenite and management of nutrient ratios in growth solutions.
- Key findings indicate that preharvest treatments can significantly improve anthocyanin content in vegetables, while also exploring the genetic and physiological mechanisms underlying plant responses to environmental stressors such as salinity and cadmium exposure.
- The integration of metabolomics and transcriptomics has allowed Zhu to uncover critical pathways in flowering regulation and stress response, providing valuable genetic resources to improve agricultural practices for crops such as sweet basil and flowering Chinese cabbage.
