OverviewAI-generated summary

Jiamei Li's research focuses on understanding plant resistance to nematodes, particularly in *Arabidopsis thaliana*. Her recent work includes investigating the overexpression of the *AtPROPEP6* gene to enhance resistance against the Southern root-knot nematode, *Meloidogyne incognita*. Li also explores optimizing conditions for the ectopic gene expression and delivery of *Bacillus subtilis* via seed treatment. Her scholarship extends to the study of plastome conservation and adaptive evolution in medicinal plants, as seen in her work on *Aralia elata*. Li collaborates with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Payal Sanadhya and Fiona L. Goggin, with whom she has co-authored multiple publications. Her recent publications date to 2026, indicating ongoing activity in her research areas.
