Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Bacteria
  • Ecology

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Shoot, Botany, Germplasm, Micropropagation and Explant culture. Her Shoot study results in a more complete grasp of Horticulture. Her Botany study often links to related topics such as In vitro.

Her work carried out in the field of Germplasm brings together such families of science as Plant Structures and Biotechnology. The concepts of her Micropropagation study are interwoven with issues in Contamination, Cytokinin and Plant tissue culture. Her Cultivar study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Blowing a raspberry, Zeatin, Rubus and Vaccinium.

Her most cited work include:

  • Plant cryopreservation: a practical guide. (227 citations)
  • Biodiversity conservation and conservation biotechnology tools (93 citations)
  • Implementing cryogenic storage of clonally propagated plants. (82 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Horticulture, Botany, Shoot, Germplasm and Micropropagation. Her study in the field of Cultivar also crosses realms of Cold storage and Vitrification. Her work on Rubus, Meristem, photoperiodism and Germination as part of general Botany study is frequently connected to Cryoprotectant, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

Her work deals with themes such as PEAR, Murashige and Skoog medium, Cold acclimation and Callus, which intersect with Shoot. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Biotechnology, Crop and Ribes. Her studies in Micropropagation integrate themes in fields like Rootstock and Plant physiology.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Horticulture (46.81%)
  • Botany (44.68%)
  • Shoot (45.39%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2012-2020)?

  • Shoot (45.39%)
  • Horticulture (46.81%)
  • Botany (44.68%)

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

Shoot, Horticulture, Botany, Micropropagation and Agronomy are her primary areas of study. Her study in Shoot is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cultivar, Murashige and Skoog medium, PEAR and Callus. Barbara M. Reed combines subjects such as Hyphal growth and Spore with her study of Horticulture.

Her Botany research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Explant culture, Oxidative stress, Plant virus and Tissue culture. She has included themes like Callus formation and Plant physiology in her Micropropagation study. Her studies deal with areas such as In vitro and Growth medium as well as Agronomy.

Between 2012 and 2020, her most popular works were:

  • Melatonin enhances the recovery of cryopreserved shoot tips of American elm (Ulmus americana L.). (57 citations)
  • Cryopreservation affects ROS-induced oxidative stress and antioxidant response in Arabidopsis seedlings. (56 citations)
  • Improving in vitro mineral nutrition for diverse pear germplasm (48 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Bacteria
  • Ecology

Her main research concerns Shoot, Micropropagation, Botany, Cultivar and Agronomy. Her Shoot research is within the category of Horticulture. Her work is dedicated to discovering how Horticulture, Murashige and Skoog medium are connected with Spots and other disciplines.

Her Micropropagation research includes elements of Plant physiology, Nutrient, Callus formation and PEAR. Her Nutrient study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Germplasm and Growth medium. Her research in Botany intersects with topics in Explant culture, Oxidative stress, Malondialdehyde and Reactive oxygen species.
