Akira Yamauchi

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Botany
• Gene
• Agronomy

Akira Yamauchi mostly deals with Agronomy, Root system, Poaceae, Water content and Botany. His Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Soil water and Transpiration. The study incorporates disciplines such as Upland rice and Nutrient in addition to Root system.

His work carried out in the field of Poaceae brings together such families of science as Zea mays, Oryza sativa and Sucrose. His research in Water content tackles topics such as Dry matter which are related to areas like Waterlogging, Aerenchyma and Shoot. His research integrates issues of Arabidopsis thaliana, Horticulture and Soil horizon in his study of Botany.

His most cited work include:

• Root biology and genetic improvement for drought avoidance in rice (248 citations)
• Root Development and Nutrient Uptake (142 citations)
• Fractal Analysis of Plant Root Systems (128 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary scientific interests are in Agronomy, Root system, Water content, Botany and Shoot. His Agronomy research integrates issues from Soil water and Horticulture. His Root system research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Upland rice, Morphology, Moisture, Poaceae and Drought tolerance.

His Poaceae study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Sorghum, Sorghum bicolor, Oryza sativa and Rainfed agriculture. His research on Water content also deals with topics like

• Plasticity and related Adaptation,
• Transpiration which connect with Water-use efficiency. His work in Shoot addresses issues such as Waterlogging, which are connected to fields such as Aerenchyma and Stomatal conductance.

He most often published in these fields:

• Agronomy (63.13%)
• Root system (29.49%)
• Water content (18.43%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

• Agronomy (63.13%)
• Root system (29.49%)
• Plasticity (7.83%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Agronomy, Root system, Plasticity, Water content and Shoot. His Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Soil water and Lowland rice. The concepts of his Root system study are interwoven with issues in Moisture, Plant breeding, Quantitative trait locus and Developmental plasticity.

In his study, Phenotypic plasticity, Water stress and Botany is strongly linked to Adaptation, which falls under the umbrella field of Plasticity. His Water content research focuses on Hardpan and how it relates to Bulk density, Water extraction, Penetration and Root branching. The study incorporates disciplines such as Tissue level, Cultivar, Waterlogging and Rice plant in addition to Shoot.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• Nitrogen application enhanced the expression of developmental plasticity of root systems triggered by mild drought stress in rice (35 citations)
• Root plasticity for maintenance of productivity under abiotic stressed soil environments in rice: Progress and prospects (32 citations)
• QTL associated with lateral root plasticity in response to soil moisture fluctuation stress in rice (27 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

• Gene
• Botany
• Agronomy

Akira Yamauchi mainly focuses on Agronomy, Root system, Water content, Plasticity and Shoot. His work deals with themes such as Botany and Plant physiology, which intersect with Agronomy. His Root system study incorporates themes from Plant breeding, Developmental plasticity, Moisture, Genetic variation and Hardpan.

His Water content study combines topics in areas such as Soil water, Soil horizon and Cultivar. Within one scientific family, Akira Yamauchi focuses on topics pertaining to Adaptation under Plasticity, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Phenotypic plasticity, Abiotic component and Aerenchyma formation. His Shoot study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Crop, Germination, Dry weight, Nutrient and Seedling.
