Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Botany

His primary scientific interests are in Biochemistry, Trehalose, Botany, Mycorrhiza and Glomus. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Molecular biology and Biochemistry. His Trehalose research integrates issues from Desiccation, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Yeast and Metabolism.

His Botany research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Symbiosis and Colonization. His work in the fields of Mycorrhiza, such as Acaulosporaceae, intersects with other areas such as Plant community. His Glomus research includes themes of Acaulospora, Agronomy, Fungal genetics, Organic farming and Arbuscular mycorrhiza.

His most cited work include:

  • Mycorrhizal fungal diversity determines plant biodiversity, ecosystem variability and productivity (2698 citations)
  • DIFFERENT ARBUSCULAR MYCORRHIZAL FUNGAL SPECIES ARE POTENTIAL DETERMINANTS OF PLANT COMMUNITY STRUCTURE (632 citations)
  • Impact of land use intensity on the species diversity of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi in agroecosystems of Central Europe (584 citations)

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

Andres Wiemken focuses on Botany, Biochemistry, Mycorrhiza, Trehalose and Glomus. His Botany study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Arbuscular mycorrhiza and Symbiosis. His study in Biochemistry focuses on Fructan, Sucrose, Yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Invertase.

The concepts of his Mycorrhiza study are interwoven with issues in Plant nutrition, Microbiology, Chitinase, Medicago truncatula and Rhizosphere. His research investigates the connection between Trehalose and topics such as Arabidopsis that intersect with issues in Arabidopsis thaliana. His research investigates the link between Glomus and topics such as Agronomy that cross with problems in Nutrient and Organic farming.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (44.02%)
  • Biochemistry (39.13%)
  • Mycorrhiza (22.28%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2018)?

  • Botany (44.02%)
  • Symbiosis (17.39%)
  • Agronomy (12.50%)

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

Andres Wiemken mostly deals with Botany, Symbiosis, Agronomy, Sorghum and Mycorrhizal network. His research integrates issues of Ecology and Gene in his study of Botany. Andres Wiemken combines subjects such as Plantago and Plant roots with his study of Symbiosis.

He has researched Agronomy in several fields, including Rhizobacteria, Nutrient and Microbial inoculant. His study in Mycorrhizal network is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Microcosm and Intercropping. Within one scientific family, Andres Wiemken focuses on topics pertaining to Mycorrhiza under Plant nutrition, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Rhizosphere.

Between 2010 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Mycorrhizal Networks: Common Goods of Plants Shared under Unequal Terms of Trade (199 citations)
  • Inoculation of root microorganisms for sustainable wheat–rice and wheat–black gram rotations in India (151 citations)
  • The family of ammonium transporters (AMT) in Sorghum bicolor: two AMT members are induced locally, but not systemically in roots colonized by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (81 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Botany

Botany, Gene, Transporter, Symbiosis and Linum are his primary areas of study. His Botany study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Nutrient. His Gene research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Arbuscular mycorrhiza and Cell biology.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Peptide sequence and Phylogenetics in addition to Transporter. His Symbiosis course of study focuses on Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and Ecology. Andres Wiemken interconnects Glomus, Sorghum, Mycorrhizal network and Intercropping in the investigation of issues within Linum.
