Deborah A. Samac

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

• Gene
• Botany
• Bacteria

Deborah A. Samac mainly focuses on Botany, Gene, Biochemistry, Gene expression and Genetically modified crops. Her Botany research integrates issues from Nutrient and Agronomy. Her study on Gene is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Molecular biology.

The concepts of her Biochemistry study are interwoven with issues in Phosphorus deficiency and Root nodule. Her Gene expression research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Medicago truncatula and Regulation of gene expression. Her research integrates issues of Secondary cell wall, Food science and Transformation in her study of Genetically modified crops.

Her most cited work include:

• Overexpression of Malate Dehydrogenase in Transgenic Alfalfa Enhances Organic Acid Synthesis and Confers Tolerance to Aluminum (289 citations)
• Isolation and Characterization of the Genes Encoding Basic and Acidic Chitinase in Arabidopsis thaliana. (266 citations)
• Recent Advances in Legume Transformation (241 citations)

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

Her main research concerns Botany, Gene, Genetics, Medicago truncatula and Medicago sativa. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Genetically modified crops, Transgene, Medicago and Root nodule. Her study looks at the intersection of Root nodule and topics like Sinorhizobium meliloti with Rhizobia and Streptomyces isolates.

Her work on Molecular biology expands to the thematically related Gene. As a member of one scientific family, she mostly works in the field of Medicago truncatula, focusing on Erysiphe pisi and, on occasion, Genotype. Her Medicago sativa research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Plant stem, Horticulture and Lignin.

She most often published in these fields:

• Botany (42.86%)
• Gene (33.54%)
• Genetics (26.09%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

• Microbiology (22.36%)
• Agronomy (19.25%)
• Horticulture (13.04%)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Microbiology, Agronomy, Horticulture, Medicago sativa and Genetics. The Microbiology study combines topics in areas such as Antibacterial activity and Rhizobia. Her Medicago sativa research incorporates themes from Molecular biology, Reporter gene, Medicago and Promoter.

Her research in the fields of Candidate gene, Gene and Plant disease resistance overlaps with other disciplines such as Aphanomyces euteiches and Dilution. Her Gene study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Effector. Her study in Colletotrichum trifolii is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Medicago truncatula and Pseudomonas syringae.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

• Plant Defensin Peptides have Antifungal and Antibacterial Activity Against Human and Plant Pathogens. (20 citations)
• Plant Defensin Peptides have Antifungal and Antibacterial Activity Against Human and Plant Pathogens. (20 citations)
• Forage accumulation and nutritive value of reduced lignin and reference alfalfa cultivars (19 citations)

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

• Gene
• Botany
• Bacteria

Deborah A. Samac spends much of her time researching Microbiology, Antimicrobial, Antibacterial activity, Peptide sequence and Microbial population biology. Her studies deal with areas such as In vitro and Transgene as well as Microbiology. Her study on Transgene is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Medicago truncatula.

Her Medicago truncatula study combines topics in areas such as Plant disease resistance, Linkage disequilibrium and Quantitative trait locus. Her Peptide sequence research entails a greater understanding of Biochemistry. Her Microbial population biology research incorporates elements of Ecology, Productivity, Soil water, Soil test and Cover crop.
