Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Agronomy

Arun Kumar Joshi spends much of his time researching Agronomy, Quantitative trait locus, Cultivar, Inbred strain and Biofortification. His study in the fields of Plant breeding, Germplasm and Bipolaris under the domain of Agronomy overlaps with other disciplines such as Heat tolerance. Arun Kumar Joshi focuses mostly in the field of Quantitative trait locus, narrowing it down to topics relating to Microsatellite and, in certain cases, Chromosome, Drought tolerance, Chlorophyll fluorescence and Molecular marker.

His Inbred strain study which covers Sowing that intersects with Locus, Veterinary medicine, Powdery mildew and Plant disease resistance. The various areas that Arun Kumar Joshi examines in his Biofortification study include Zinc deficiency, Human nutrition, Plant physiology, Gene–environment interaction and Human fertilization. His Horticulture research includes themes of Genetic marker, Genetics, Additive genetic effects and Botany.

His most cited work include:

  • Biofortification of wheat with zinc through zinc fertilization in seven countries (135 citations)
  • Biofortification of wheat with zinc through zinc fertilization in seven countries (135 citations)
  • Stay green trait: variation, inheritance and its association with spot blotch resistance in spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) (114 citations)

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

Arun Kumar Joshi mainly focuses on Agronomy, Cultivar, Bipolaris, Quantitative trait locus and Genetics. As a part of the same scientific family, Arun Kumar Joshi mostly works in the field of Agronomy, focusing on Inbred strain and, on occasion, Locus. His Cultivar research incorporates elements of Background selection, Backcrossing and Marker-assisted selection.

His Bipolaris research integrates issues from Veterinary medicine, Cochliobolus sativus and Pathogen. Arun Kumar Joshi interconnects Plant disease resistance, Chromosome, Gene mapping, Molecular mapping and Plant breeding in the investigation of issues within Quantitative trait locus. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Biotechnology and Biofortification.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (72.84%)
  • Cultivar (37.04%)
  • Bipolaris (32.72%)

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

  • Genetics (29.01%)
  • South asia (16.67%)
  • Germplasm (22.84%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, South asia, Germplasm, Quantitative trait locus and Genotype. His Genetics study incorporates themes from Spots, Replication and Bipolaris. His Germplasm research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Association mapping and Biotechnology.

His Genotype research includes elements of Veterinary medicine and Chromosome. His Genetic linkage study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Genotyping and Cultivar. Arun Kumar Joshi undertakes interdisciplinary study in the fields of Organic matter and Agronomy through his research.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Hybrid wheat: past, present and future. (16 citations)
  • Economic benefits of blast-resistant biofortified wheat in Bangladesh: The case of BARI Gom 33 (8 citations)
  • ToxA-Tsn1 Interaction for Spot Blotch Susceptibility in Indian Wheat: An Example of Inverse Gene-for-Gene Relationship. (7 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Botany

Arun Kumar Joshi focuses on Gene, Genetics, Biochemistry, Phenylpropanoid and Metabolic pathway. His study in Genetics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Disease and Spots. His studies deal with areas such as Plant disease resistance, Genome, Association mapping, Chromosome and Locus as well as Spots.

In the field of Biochemistry, his study on Calcium ion binding, Abiotic stress, Oxidase test and Respiratory burst overlaps with subjects such as Hydrogen peroxide biosynthetic process. His Phenylpropanoid research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Ribosomal RNA and Purine metabolism. His work carried out in the field of Pyrenophora brings together such families of science as Gene-for-gene relationship, Virulence, Allele, Genotype and Bipolaris.
