Prof. Wu Zhihua, a researcher at the Chinese Academy of Forestry (CAF) and a PhD in forest genetic breeding, has led nine scientific research projects in recent years, including those funded by the National Key Research and Development Program and the National Natural Science Foundation of China, as well as seven provincial and ministerial projects. He has published 37 papers as the first or corresponding author, including nine articles in SCI journals such as PeerJ, Gene, and Forests. Wu has also authored three academic monographs, obtained four patents, and played a key role in the development of five provincial forestry technical regulations/standards as the first inventor. In addition, he has achieved six notable research outcomes, three of which have been recognized. Wu has also mentored six graduate students.
