Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Horticulture

Andrea Nardini focuses on Botany, Xylem, Hydraulic conductivity, Horticulture and Hydraulic conductance. Her research in the fields of Shoot and Stomatal conductance overlaps with other disciplines such as Laurus nobilis, Cavitation and Conductance. Her Xylem research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Biophysics, Phloem and Transpiration.

Her research integrates issues of Agronomy, Endodermis, Exodermis, Woody plant and Olea oleaster in her study of Hydraulic conductivity. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Evergreen and Water content. She combines subjects such as Sunflower, Stomatal aperture and Membrane with her study of Hydraulic conductance.

Her most cited work include:

  • Global convergence in the vulnerability of forests to drought (1256 citations)
  • Refilling of embolized vessels in young stems of laurel. Do We need a new paradigm (286 citations)
  • Limitation of stomatal conductance by hydraulic traits: sensing or preventing xylem cavitation? (280 citations)

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

Her main research concerns Botany, Xylem, Horticulture, Hydraulic conductivity and Water transport. She works mostly in the field of Botany, limiting it down to topics relating to Dehydration and, in certain cases, Sunflower and Helianthus annuus, as a part of the same area of interest. Her Xylem research integrates issues from Ecology, Agronomy and Transpiration.

Her Agronomy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Arid, Soil water and Fraxinus ornus. Her work on Prunus laurocerasus as part of general Horticulture study is frequently linked to Hydraulics, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. Her Hydraulic conductivity research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Membrane and Woody plant.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (51.76%)
  • Xylem (48.82%)
  • Horticulture (31.76%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Xylem (48.82%)
  • Water transport (20.00%)
  • Ecology (18.24%)

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

Andrea Nardini mainly focuses on Xylem, Water transport, Ecology, Horticulture and Embolism. To a larger extent, Andrea Nardini studies Botany with the aim of understanding Xylem. Her study in the field of Gymnosperm and Plant strategies is also linked to topics like Frost and Close relationship.

Her research investigates the link between Ecology and topics such as Drought tolerance that cross with problems in Biological system and Turgor pressure. The various areas that Andrea Nardini examines in her Horticulture study include Photosynthesis, Stomatal conductance and Bark. Her study in Hydraulic conductivity is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Climate change, Pith, Tracheid and Osmosis.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Insights from in vivo micro‐CT analysis: testing the hydraulic vulnerability segmentation in Acer pseudoplatanus and Fagus sylvatica seedlings (26 citations)
  • The Possible Role of Non-Structural Carbohydrates in the Regulation of Tree Hydraulics. (20 citations)
  • Close to the edge: effects of repeated severe drought on stem hydraulics and non-structural carbohydrates in European beech saplings. (19 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Horticulture

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Xylem, Water transport, Horticulture, Hydraulics and Ecology. Her studies deal with areas such as Phloem, Bark and Parenchyma as well as Xylem. Andrea Nardini has included themes like Hydraulic conductivity, Pith and Osmosis in her Parenchyma study.

Her work carried out in the field of Horticulture brings together such families of science as Photosynthesis, Water-use efficiency and Acclimatization. The study incorporates disciplines such as Ailanthus altissima and Phenotypic plasticity in addition to Agronomy. The Resistance study combines topics in areas such as Fraxinus ornus and Transpiration.
