Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His main research concerns Biochemistry, Botany, Agrobacterium, Petal and Biosynthesis. His work on Phenylpropanoid, Flux, Terpenoid and Chloroplast as part of general Biochemistry research is often related to Geranyl acetate, thus linking different fields of science. His study on Botany is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Genetically modified crops.

Agrobacterium is a subfield of Genetics that he investigates. As part of the same scientific family, Alexander Vainstein usually focuses on Petal, concentrating on Stereochemistry and intersecting with Orcinol, Guaiacol, Eugenol and Phenol. His Biosynthesis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Carotenoid, Chromoplast, Plastoglobule and Homologous gene.

His most cited work include:

  • pSAT vectors: a modular series of plasmids for autofluorescent protein tagging and expression of multiple genes in plants (340 citations)
  • Subcellular localization of interacting proteins by bimolecular fluorescence complementation in planta. (278 citations)
  • Rose Scent: Genomics Approach to Discovering Novel Floral Fragrance–Related Genes (231 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Botany, Biochemistry, Genetics, Agrobacterium and Transformation. His Botany study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Explant culture, Basal shoot and Genetically modified crops. His work investigates the relationship between Agrobacterium and topics such as Gall that intersect with problems in Crown.

His research in Transformation tackles topics such as Transgene which are related to areas like Horticulture. His biological study deals with issues like Petal, which deal with fields such as Function. His Phenylpropanoid study combines topics in areas such as MYB and Anthocyanin.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (47.44%)
  • Biochemistry (21.15%)
  • Genetics (17.95%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Botany (47.44%)
  • Biochemistry (21.15%)
  • Gene (12.82%)

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

Alexander Vainstein mostly deals with Botany, Biochemistry, Gene, Phenylpropanoid and Petunia. He combines subjects such as Genetically modified crops, Agrobacterium and Microbiology with his study of Botany. His Agrobacterium research includes elements of Antirrhinum majus, Reductase, Heterologous expression and Agrobacterium tumefaciens.

When carried out as part of a general Biochemistry research project, his work on Cell, Shikimate pathway and Aromatic amino acids is frequently linked to work in Metabolome, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. Gene is a subfield of Genetics that he tackles. His Petunia research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Carnation, Structural gene, Petal, MYB and Protoplast.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The R2R3-MYB–Like Regulatory Factor EOBI, Acting Downstream of EOBII, Regulates Scent Production by Activating ODO1 and Structural Scent-Related Genes in Petunia (66 citations)
  • Regulation of Fig (Ficus carica L.) Fruit Color: Metabolomic and Transcriptomic Analyses of the Flavonoid Biosynthetic Pathway. (60 citations)
  • Tomato fruits expressing a bacterial feedback-insensitive 3-deoxy-d-arabino-heptulosonate 7-phosphate synthase of the shikimate pathway possess enhanced levels of multiple specialized metabolites and upgraded aroma (38 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of study are Phenylpropanoid, Botany, Gene, Genome and Genetics. His Phenylpropanoid research incorporates themes from Petunia, Anthocyanin, Structural gene, Microbiology and Genetically modified crops. His Genetically modified crops research includes themes of Salicylic acid, Jasmonic acid, Nicotiana tabacum, Virus and Transformation.

His studies in Botany integrate themes in fields like Nicotiana and Plant defense against herbivory. In the subject of general Gene, his work in Evolution of sexual reproduction, Molecular genetics, Mutation breeding and Introgression is often linked to Abiotic component, thereby combining diverse domains of study. The Genome study combines topics in areas such as Cleavage and Nucleic acid.
