Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Agronomy
  • Botany
  • Horticulture

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Agronomy, Anthesis, photoperiodism, Cultivar and Horticulture. Daniel J. Miralles integrates Agronomy and Shading in his studies. His Anthesis research incorporates themes from Primordium, Poaceae and Plant physiology.

In his study, Field experiment is inextricably linked to Dry weight, which falls within the broad field of photoperiodism. His work is dedicated to discovering how Cultivar, Vernalization are connected with Phyllochron, Environmental factor, High yielding and Main stem and other disciplines. As a part of the same scientific study, Daniel J. Miralles usually deals with the Sowing, concentrating on Dwarfing and frequently concerns with Biomass and Grain yield.

His most cited work include:

  • PAPER PRESENTED AT INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON INCREASING WHEAT YIELD POTENTIAL, CIMMYT, OBREGON, MEXICO, 20–24 MARCH 2006 Sink limitations to yield in wheat: how could it be reduced? (169 citations)
  • Floret development in near isogenic wheat lines differing in plant height (168 citations)
  • Duration of the stem elongation period influences the number of fertile florets in wheat and barley. (162 citations)

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

Agronomy, Cultivar, Anthesis, Horticulture and Sowing are his primary areas of study. His Agronomy study often links to related topics such as photoperiodism. His photoperiodism study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Flor and Stem elongation.

His research investigates the link between Cultivar and topics such as Rapeseed that cross with problems in Brassica. His research integrates issues of Primordium, Dry weight, Poaceae and Field experiment in his study of Anthesis. His studies deal with areas such as Ecophysiology and Plant nutrition as well as Horticulture.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (120.90%)
  • Cultivar (52.24%)
  • Anthesis (43.28%)

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

  • Agronomy (120.90%)
  • Yield (29.10%)
  • Waterlogging (17.91%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Yield, Waterlogging, Anthesis and Horticulture. In the field of Agronomy, his study on Sowing, Phenology, Crop and Growing season overlaps with subjects such as Yield. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Crop, photoperiodism, Canola and Brassica is strongly linked to Point of delivery.

His research in Yield focuses on subjects like Crop yield, which are connected to Plant physiology and Grain number. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Photosynthesis, Field pea and Aerenchyma. His Anthesis research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Dry weight, High nitrogen, Plant density, Tiller and Animal science.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Waterlogging of Winter Crops at Early and Late Stages: Impacts on Leaf Physiology, Growth and Yield (25 citations)
  • Warm nights in the Argentine Pampas: Modelling its impact on wheat and barley shows yield reductions (12 citations)
  • Physiological traits associated with reductions in grain number in wheat and barley under waterlogging (9 citations)
