Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Zilin Shi"
Zilin Shi's research focuses on the ecological impacts of invasive species on native plant reproductive strategies and the interactions between environmental factors such as nitrogen availability and drought on urban tree species in China.
One of his recent studies investigates how competition intensity and invasive species affect the reproductive strategies of native and invasive saltmarsh plants, shedding light on the ecological consequences of biological invasions.
In another line of research, Shi explores the role of the IRGM gene in promoting melanoma cell survival through autophagy, suggesting its potential as a prognostic biomarker for melanoma management.
