Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Cherryl Quiñones' research investigates the genetic and molecular mechanisms underlying plant responses to environmental stressors, with a particular focus on rice (Oryza). Her work has explored genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to identify candidate genes associated with tolerance to high night temperatures, a critical factor impacting grain yield. Quiñones has also examined natural variations in specific genes, such as LONELY GUY-Like 1, and their influence on grain weight under warmer conditions. Her research employs advanced techniques, including gene network analyses and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) for measuring carbohydrate reserves. To support these investigations, she has been involved in developing and utilizing field-based infrastructure and cyber-physical systems for phenomics research on high night air temperature stress in irrigated rice.

Her scholarship metrics include an h-index of 10 and 16 total publications, with 641 total citations. Key collaborators include Argelia Lorence, Shannon S Cunningham, and Wenceslao Larazo, with whom she has co-authored multiple publications, primarily from Arkansas State University.
