Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Photosynthesis

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Botany, Horticulture, Datura ferox, Phytochrome and Sunlight. Botany is often connected to Ecosystem in her work. In general Ecosystem study, her work on Terrestrial ecosystem often relates to the realm of Pyrimidine dimer, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

Ana L. Scopel performs integrative Phytochrome and Plant stem research in her work. Borrowing concepts from Seedling, Ana L. Scopel weaves in ideas under Sunlight. Her studies in Seedling integrate themes in fields like Datura, Plant morphology, Herbivore and Leaf beetle.

Her most cited work include:

  • Far-Red Radiation Reflected from Adjacent Leaves: An Early Signal of Competition in Plant Canopies (544 citations)
  • Early detection of neighbour plants by phytochrome perception of spectral changes in reflected sunlight (363 citations)
  • Functional significance and induction by solar radiation of ultraviolet-absorbing sunscreens in field-grown soybean crops. (311 citations)

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

Ana L. Scopel mainly investigates Botany, Horticulture, Phytochrome, Agronomy and Germination. Her work on Canopy and Herbivore as part of her general Botany study is frequently connected to Ozone depletion, Gunnera magellanica and Environmental science, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. The Herbivore study which covers Noctuidae that intersects with Environmental factor.

Her work deals with themes such as Mink and Specific leaf area, which intersect with Horticulture. Her Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Shrub and Vegetation dynamics. Her Germination study combines topics in areas such as Lactuca, Asteraceae and Vegetation.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (69.49%)
  • Horticulture (33.90%)
  • Phytochrome (28.81%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2005-2020)?

  • Botany (69.49%)
  • Germination (30.51%)
  • Horticulture (33.90%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Botany, Germination, Horticulture, Lactuca and Asteraceae. Her Botany research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Biomass and Agronomy. Her Biomass study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Field experiment, Ecosystem and Carex.

Her study in the field of Earthworm is also linked to topics like Environmental science. Horticulture connects with themes related to Algae in her study. Ana L. Scopel has researched Asteraceae in several fields, including Inflorescence and Shoot.

Between 2005 and 2020, her most popular works were:

  • Phytotoxic activity in Flourensia campestris and isolation of (--)-hamanasic acid A as its active principle compound. (23 citations)
  • Phytotoxic activity in Flourensia campestris and isolation of (--)-hamanasic acid A as its active principle compound. (23 citations)
  • Seed mass and germination in Asteraceae species of Argentina. (17 citations)
