  • Gene
  • Botany
  • Genetics

Anton J. M. Peeters spends much of his time researching Arabidopsis, Genetics, Gene, Mutant and Botany. His work deals with themes such as Plant genetics, Vernalization, Mutation, Homology and Molecular cloning, which intersect with Arabidopsis. His work in the fields of Gene, such as Candidate gene, Genetic marker, Genome and Immunoscreening, intersects with other areas such as Expression quantitative trait loci.

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Arabidopsis (56.92%)
  • Arabidopsis thaliana (38.46%)
  • Cell biology (29.23%)

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

Arabidopsis, Arabidopsis thaliana, Cell biology, Botany and Genetics are his primary areas of study. His study looks at the intersection of Arabidopsis and topics like Regulator with Mutant, Jasmonic acid and Jasmonate. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Reprogramming, Acclimatization and Abiotic component.

Anton J. M. Peeters usually deals with Cell biology and limits it to topics linked to Chromatin and Nucleus. His study in the field of Petiole also crosses realms of Photon flux. His Quantitative trait locus research incorporates themes from Quantitative genetics, Genetic variation and Inbred strain.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Ethylene-induced differential petiole growth in Arabidopsis thaliana involves local microtubule reorientation and cell expansion. (51 citations)
  • Shedding Light on Large-Scale Chromatin Reorganization in Arabidopsis thaliana (35 citations)
  • Genetical Genomics Reveals Large Scale Genotype-By-Environment Interactions in Arabidopsis thaliana (31 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Botany
  • DNA

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Arabidopsis, Botany, Arabidopsis thaliana, Inbred strain and Petiole. His studies in Arabidopsis integrate themes in fields like Chromatin, Regulation of gene expression, Signaling proteins and Cell biology. He performs multidisciplinary study on Botany and Photon flux in his works.

The various areas that he examines in his Inbred strain study include Quantitative trait locus and Quantitative genetics. His Petiole study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Rosette, Biophysics, Tubulin, Microtubule and Regulator. Cape verde combines with fields such as Genetic variation, Shade avoidance and Genetics in his work.
