Barbara Demmig-Adams

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

• Botany
• Photosynthesis
• Ecology

Barbara Demmig-Adams mostly deals with Botany, Photosynthesis, Xanthophyll, Photoprotection and Antheraxanthin. Her primary area of study in Botany is in the field of Chlorophyll. Her work on Chlorophyll fluorescence, Photosystem II and Photoinhibition as part of general Photosynthesis study is frequently linked to Excess energy, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

Her Xanthophyll study combines topics in areas such as Biophysics and Violaxanthin, Zeaxanthin. The study incorporates disciplines such as Overwintering and Evergreen in addition to Photoprotection. In her study, Energy quenching is inextricably linked to Violaxanthin de-epoxidase, which falls within the broad field of Antheraxanthin.

Her most cited work include:

• Photoprotection and Other Responses of Plants to High Light Stress (2055 citations)
• Carotenoids and photoprotection in plants : a role for the xanthophyll zeaxanthin (1333 citations)
• The role of xanthophyll cycle carotenoids in the protection of photosynthesis (1323 citations)

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

Her main research concerns Photosynthesis, Botany, Xanthophyll, Zeaxanthin and Photoprotection. Her study looks at the relationship between Photosynthesis and fields such as Chlorophyll, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. Her work on Phloem, Acclimatization, Ecotype and Photosynthetic acclimation as part of general Botany research is frequently linked to Light intensity, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

Her Xanthophyll research also works with subjects such as

• Antheraxanthin which connect with Violaxanthin de-epoxidase,
• Violaxanthin which is related to area like Non-photochemical quenching. Her Zeaxanthin study incorporates themes from Horticulture and Photosynthetic pigment. Her Photoprotection research incorporates themes from Chloroplast and Evergreen.

She most often published in these fields:

• Photosynthesis (68.49%)
• Botany (58.22%)
• Xanthophyll (44.52%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2013-2020)?

• Photosynthesis (68.49%)
• Botany (58.22%)
• Phloem (15.75%)

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

Photosynthesis, Botany, Phloem, Photosynthetic capacity and Acclimatization are her primary areas of study. In general Photosynthesis, her work in Chlorophyll fluorescence is often linked to Light intensity linking many areas of study. Her Chlorophyll fluorescence research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Quenching and Photosystem II.

She interconnects Photochemistry, Xanthophyll and Evergreen in the investigation of issues within Photosystem II. Barbara Demmig-Adams does research in Botany, focusing on Photoprotection specifically. Her Photosynthetic capacity research includes themes of Cell wall and Plant physiology.

Between 2013 and 2020, her most popular works were:

• Non-photochemical quenching and energy dissipation in plants, algae and cyanobacteria (159 citations)
• Multiple feedbacks between chloroplast and whole plant in the context of plant adaptation and acclimation to the environment (42 citations)
• Association between photosynthesis and contrasting features of minor veins in leaves of summer annuals loading phloem via symplastic versus apoplastic routes. (38 citations)

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

• Botany
• Photosynthesis
• Ecology

Her primary areas of investigation include Photosynthesis, Phloem, Botany, Photosynthetic capacity and Ecotype. Her is doing research in Photosystem II and Chlorophyll fluorescence, both of which are found in Photosynthesis. Barbara Demmig-Adams mostly deals with Photoinhibition in her studies of Photosystem II.

Her studies link Zeaxanthin with Chlorophyll fluorescence. She combines subjects such as Arabidopsis thaliana, Acclimatization, Cucurbita pepo and Xylem with her study of Phloem. Her Photosynthetic capacity research incorporates elements of Ecology and Chloroplast.
