Research summary
AI-generated

This publication record appears to mix work from at least two distinct researchers who share the name Guohong Cai: one focused on plant pathology and soybean genetics (identifying disease-resistant germplasm and pathogens affecting soybean and other crops), and another working in materials chemistry (batteries, coordination polymers, and superconductors). The plant-science strand centers on finding and characterizing soybean resistance to fungal and oomycete pathogens like Fusarium, Phytophthora, and Pythium, and reporting new disease-causing organisms in Indiana. Prospective students should verify which specific research program and institution they would be joining, given the divergent subject matter under this name.

Publication output has remained fairly steady over the last decade, fluctuating between about 3 and 8 papers per year with no clear long-term upward or downward trend.
