Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Metabolism
  • Gene

Carmen Lluch focuses on Nitrogen fixation, Botany, Nitrogenase, Agronomy and Phaseolus. The Nitrogen fixation study combines topics in areas such as Symbiosis, Shoot and Metabolism. Her research integrates issues of Rhizobia, Microbial inoculant, Rhizobiaceae and Root nodule in her study of Botany.

Her work in Nitrogenase covers topics such as Dry weight which are related to areas like Abscisic acid and Plant physiology. Her Agronomy study which covers Photosynthesis that intersects with Proline. Her Phaseolus research entails a greater understanding of Horticulture.

Her most cited work include:

  • Effects of salt stress on growth, photosynthesis and nitrogen fixation in chick-pea (Cicer arietinum L.) (252 citations)
  • Effects of salt stress on growth and nitrogen fixation by pea, faba-bean, common bean and soybean plants (195 citations)
  • Growth, nitrogen fixation and ammonium assimilation in common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris): effect of phosphorus (138 citations)

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

Carmen Lluch mainly focuses on Botany, Nitrogen fixation, Biochemistry, Phaseolus and Vicia faba. The study incorporates disciplines such as Rhizobium, Horticulture, Symbiosis, Root nodule and Rhizobium leguminosarum in addition to Botany. She interconnects Agronomy, Shoot and Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase in the investigation of issues within Nitrogen fixation.

Carmen Lluch combines subjects such as Enzyme assay, Abscisic acid and Acid phosphatase with her study of Phaseolus. Her Vicia faba research incorporates elements of Size-exclusion chromatography, Chromatography and Genotype. Her Nitrogenase study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Proline and Medicago truncatula.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (55.81%)
  • Nitrogen fixation (30.23%)
  • Biochemistry (29.07%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2012-2017)?

  • Botany (55.81%)
  • Symbiosis (23.26%)
  • Sinorhizobium meliloti (8.14%)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Botany, Symbiosis, Sinorhizobium meliloti, Plant physiology and Proline. In Botany, Carmen Lluch works on issues like Horticulture, which are connected to Pinitol. As a member of one scientific family, Carmen Lluch mostly works in the field of Symbiosis, focusing on Phaseolus and, on occasion, Putrescine and Cadaverine.

Her Sinorhizobium meliloti study improves the overall literature in Biochemistry. Her Antioxidant, Catalase and Superoxide dismutase study in the realm of Biochemistry interacts with subjects such as Glutathione reductase. Her studies deal with areas such as Medicago sativa, Nitrogenase and Medicago truncatula as well as Proline.

Between 2012 and 2017, her most popular works were:

  • Salicylic acid improves the salinity tolerance of Medicago sativa in symbiosis with Sinorhizobium meliloti by preventing nitrogen fixation inhibition. (57 citations)
  • Changes in carbohydrate content in zucchini fruit (Cucurbita pepo L.) under low temperature stress. (29 citations)
  • Proline accumulation has prevalence over polyamines in nodules of Medicago sativa in symbiosis with Sinorhizobium meliloti during the initial response to salinity (24 citations)
