Dr. Xiuhua Li is an Honorary Lecturer in the School of Agriculture and Food Sustainability at the University of Queensland, based at Building 8150 Room 116 on the Gatton campus. Her scholarly output includes co-authorship of two books published in 2009 by the Rural Industries Research and Development Corporation: A review of the nutritive value of sorghum for broilers: The potential for using hydroponics with W. L. Bryden, P. H. Selle, D. J. Cadogan, N. D. Muller, D. R. Jordan, M. J. Gidley, and W. D. Hamilton; and Ileal digestible amino acid values in feedstuffs for poultry with W. L. Bryden, G. Ravindran, L. I. Hew, and V. Ravindran.

Dr. Li's recent publications demonstrate her focus on poultry nutrition and feed efficiency. In 2024, she co-authored 'Prediction of the apparent ileal digestible amino acid contents of canola meal for broilers from crude protein content' in Animal Production Science with Y. M. Sun, D. Zhang, K. H. Huang, V. Ravindran, and W. L. Bryden; 'Additivity and associative effects of metabolisable energy and ileal amino acid digestibility in broiler diets combining sorghum with different protein sources' in Animal Production Science with A. Sultan, D. Zhang, and W. L. Bryden; 'Physical treatment and protease or probiotic supplementation and feather meal digestibility by broilers' in Animal Production Science with Y. M. Sun, D. Zhang, and W. L. Bryden; and 'Challenges of using tibia bone ash and toe ash as biomarkers of phosphorus nutrition for meat chickens' in Journal of Applied Animal Nutrition with Z. W. Zou, Z. W. Zhang, D. Zhang, K. H. Huang, and W. L. Bryden. Other key works include 'Enhanced meat chicken productivity in response to the probiotic Bacillus amyloliquefaciens H57 is associated with the enrichment of microbial amino acid and vitamin biosynthesis pathways' in Journal of Applied Microbiology (2023) with Y. S. Bajagai and colleagues; 'Rumen degradability of barley, oats, sorghum, triticale, and wheat in situ and the effect of pelleting' in Agriculture (2021); 'Nutrition, feeding and laying hen welfare' in Animal Production Science (2021); 'Plant cell wall chemistry: implications for ruminant utilisation' in Journal of Applied Animal Nutrition (2021); and studies on solid-state fermented canola meal and lupins for broilers in Animal Production Science and Animal Feed Science and Technology (2021). She has produced 34 journal articles and 53 conference papers and co-supervised PhD theses on probiotics, fermented feeds, and nutrient digestibility.
