Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Botany

Axel Mithöfer mainly focuses on Biochemistry, Botany, Cell biology, Signal transduction and Herbivore. His research on Biochemistry frequently links to adjacent areas such as Molecular biology. Axel Mithöfer is involved in the study of Botany that focuses on Spodoptera littoralis in particular.

His studies in Cell biology integrate themes in fields like Arabidopsis thaliana, Abscisic acid, Arabidopsis, Jasmonate and Abiotic stress. Axel Mithöfer focuses mostly in the field of Signal transduction, narrowing it down to matters related to Lipid oxidation and, in some cases, Plant Physiological Phenomena. His Herbivore research includes themes of Reactive oxygen species, Insect and Terpenoid.

His most cited work include:

  • Plant Defense Against Herbivores: Chemical Aspects (742 citations)
  • Effects of feeding Spodoptera littoralis on lima bean leaves. II. Continuous mechanical wounding resembling insect feeding is sufficient to elicit herbivory-related volatile emission. (366 citations)
  • Flavones and flavone synthases (354 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Botany, Biochemistry, Cell biology, Jasmonic acid and Jasmonate. The Botany study combines topics in areas such as Plant defense against herbivory and Predation. His Biochemistry study deals with Depolarization intersecting with Membrane potential.

His research integrates issues of Biotic stress and Arabidopsis in his study of Cell biology. His work deals with themes such as Coronatine, Plant physiology, Auxin and Defence mechanisms, which intersect with Jasmonic acid. His Jasmonate research integrates issues from Arabidopsis thaliana and Abiotic stress.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (31.93%)
  • Biochemistry (30.72%)
  • Cell biology (22.89%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Cell biology (22.89%)
  • Jasmonic acid (21.69%)
  • Jasmonate (19.88%)

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

Axel Mithöfer mainly investigates Cell biology, Jasmonic acid, Jasmonate, Arabidopsis and Horticulture. In the field of Cell biology, his study on Kinase and Cell signaling overlaps with subjects such as Tissue damage and Damp. The concepts of his Jasmonic acid study are interwoven with issues in Defence mechanisms, Plant defense against herbivory, Insect and Spodoptera littoralis.

Axel Mithöfer has researched Jasmonate in several fields, including Arabidopsis thaliana, Oxylipin, Endogeny, Pseudomonas syringae and Alternaria brassicicola. His Arabidopsis research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Signal transduction, MAPK/ERK pathway and Transcriptional regulation. His Herbivore study is focused on Botany in general.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The systemin receptor SYR1 enhances resistance of tomato against herbivorous insects. (46 citations)
  • The Ca2+ Channel CNGC19 Regulates Arabidopsis Defense Against Spodoptera Herbivory (31 citations)
  • GABA operates upstream of H+-ATPase and improves salinity tolerance in Arabidopsis by enabling cytosolic K+ retention and Na+ exclusion. (23 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Botany

Axel Mithöfer mostly deals with Cell biology, Jasmonate, Arabidopsis, Mutant and Cultivar. His Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Hormone, Steroid hormone, Receptor, Brassinosteroid and Systemin. His Jasmonate study incorporates themes from Primordium, Arabidopsis thaliana, Lateral root, Reporter gene and Auxin.

His studies deal with areas such as Biophysics, Membrane potential and Apoplast as well as Arabidopsis. The various areas that Axel Mithöfer examines in his Cultivar study include Salicylic acid, Biochemistry and Trypsin. His Salicylic acid research incorporates elements of Plant defense against herbivory and Anticarsia gemmatalis.
