Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

C. Andy King's research focuses on understanding plant physiology and genetics, particularly in soybean. His work investigates the physiological and genetic factors influencing plant responses to environmental stressors, such as drought and herbicide application. King has published on the association of "greenness" in corn with yield and leaf nitrogen concentration, and the effects of glyphosate on soybean growth and nitrogen fixation. His studies have also explored the relationship between soybean nodule size and nitrogen fixation in response to water deficits, as well as the impact of nitrogen source and drought on soybean nutrition and yield.

Further research by King has involved genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to identify genetic markers associated with traits like carbon isotope ratios in diverse soybean genotypes. His investigations into nitrogen fixation in soybean have examined the role of ureides and amino acids, and how these are affected by stress. King's scholarship metrics include an h-index of 33, with over 3,000 citations across 56 publications. He has served as co-PI on an NIH-funded grant totaling $190,629, which focused on developing microscopy techniques for studying the mechanobiology of morphogenesis and disease.

Key collaborators in his work include Larry C. Purcell, Siva K. Chamarthi, and Avjinder S. Kaler, all from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, with whom he has co-authored multiple publications. King maintains an active lab website detailing his research activities.
