Overview

Arnold M. Saxton is affiliated with the University of Tennessee at Knoxville in the United States. Their research primarily focuses on Agricultural and Biological Sciences, with contributions spanning subfields such as Plant Science, Soil Science, Agronomy and Crop Science, Ecology, Evolution, Behavior and Systematics, and Endocrinology. Their investigation covers a range of topics, including soybean genetics and cultivation, genetics and plant breeding, soil carbon and nitrogen dynamics, plant and fungal interactions, horticultural and viticultural research, climate change impacts on agriculture, and ecosystem dynamics and resilience.

Recent publications by Saxton include:

  • Eight-year field performance of backcross American chestnut (Castanea dentata) seedlings planted in the southern Appalachians, USA (2023) Forest Ecology and Management
  • Conservation agriculture increases the soil resilience and cotton yield stability in climate extremes of the southeast US (2021) Communications Earth & Environment
  • Soil quality indices based on long-term conservation cropping systems management (2020) Agrosystems Geosciences & Environment
  • Evaluation of bile salt hydrolase inhibitor efficacy for modulating host bile profile and physiology using a chicken model system (2020) Scientific Reports
  • Continuous grazing of mixed native warm-season grass in the fescue belt (2020) Agronomy Journal

Frequent co-authors collaborating with Saxton include:

  • Amanda J. Ashworth
  • Fred L. Allen
  • Scott E. Schlarbaum
  • Stacy L. Clark
  • Richard E. Baird

Their work has been published repeatedly in several academic venues, notably:
