About

John Cushman is a Full Professor at the University of Nevada Reno, USA. His research focuses on improving water-use efficiency in plants, with recent studies on synthetic crassulacean acid metabolism, cactus pear nitrogen preferences, and plant responses to a changing climate. Additionally, he explores biomass production in semi-arid conditions and the characterization of microbial consortia for biofuel production.
