Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Horticulture
  • Gene

His scientific interests lie mostly in Horticulture, Botany, Prunus, Postharvest and Cultivar. Horticulture is represented through his Browning, Flesh, Soluble solids, Titratable acid and Maturity research. Carlos H. Crisosto works mostly in the field of Botany, limiting it down to topics relating to Ozone and, in certain cases, Phytotoxicity, Fiberboard, Plastic bag and Carton, as a part of the same area of interest.

His Prunus study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Quantitative trait locus, Qtl analysis, Expressed sequence tag and Arabidopsis. His Postharvest research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Fruit tree, Quality, Flame Seedless and Irrigation. In his study, Consumer satisfaction is strongly linked to Rosaceae, which falls under the umbrella field of Cultivar.

His most cited work include:

  • Chilling injury in peach and nectarine (359 citations)
  • Cell wall metabolism during maturation, ripening and senescence of peach fruit (311 citations)
  • Consumer acceptance of ‘Brooks’ and ‘Bing’ cherries is mainly dependent on fruit SSC and visual skin color (217 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Horticulture, Botany, Postharvest, Cultivar and Flesh. His Horticulture research focuses on Ripening, Prunus, Browning, Titratable acid and Soluble solids. His studies deal with areas such as Food preservation and Genotype as well as Botany.

His Postharvest study combines topics in areas such as Botrytis cinerea, Flame Seedless and Agronomy. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Organoleptic, Food science, Flavor and Ficus. His Flesh research incorporates elements of Locus and Chilling injury.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Horticulture (64.68%)
  • Botany (27.23%)
  • Postharvest (22.98%)

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

  • Horticulture (64.68%)
  • Cultivar (22.98%)
  • Postharvest (22.98%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Horticulture, Cultivar, Postharvest, Food science and Ripening. His Botany research extends to Horticulture, which is thematically connected. His studies deal with areas such as Shelf life, Juglans, Protein biomarkers, Ficus and Carica as well as Cultivar.

His Postharvest study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Table grape, Inoculation and Cladosporium. The concepts of his Food science study are interwoven with issues in Quinic acid and Micronutrient. Carlos H. Crisosto has included themes like Biochemistry, Gene, Flesh and Japanese plum in his Ripening study.

Between 2012 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • High density SNP mapping and QTL analysis for fruit quality characteristics in peach (Prunus persica L.) (74 citations)
  • Nutritional Quality of Fruits and Vegetables (61 citations)
  • Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) and Mendelian Trait Loci (MTL) Analysis in Prunus: a Breeding Perspective and Beyond (56 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Gene
  • Horticulture

Carlos H. Crisosto mainly investigates Cultivar, Horticulture, Quantitative trait locus, Genetics and Botany. In Cultivar, Carlos H. Crisosto works on issues like Food science, which are connected to Composition. His research in Horticulture is mostly concerned with Postharvest.

His work deals with themes such as Japanese plum, Ripening, Shelf life and Prunus salicina, which intersect with Postharvest. Carlos H. Crisosto interconnects Genetic linkage, Prunus, Genome and Single-nucleotide polymorphism in the investigation of issues within Quantitative trait locus. His Botany research includes elements of Transcriptome, Gene expression, Browning and Auxin.
