Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Haizheng Xiong's research utilizes genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and genomic prediction to investigate genetic architectures underlying important traits in various plant species. Recent work has focused on identifying genetic regions associated with resistance to soybean cyst nematode and bacterial wilt in common beans (Phaseolus vulgaris), as well as white rust resistance in spinach. Xiong has also studied the genetic basis of salt tolerance in cowpea populations and explored the genetic diversity within sugarcane. Additionally, research has involved the physicochemical characterization of starches from Tetrastigma hemsleyanum. Xiong collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Ibtisam Alatawi, Ainong Shi, Kenani Chiwina, and Gehendra Bhattarai, with whom multiple publications have been co-authored. Xiong's scholarship metrics include an h-index of 15, 50 total publications, and 725 total citations.
