Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Agronomy
  • Agriculture

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Agronomy, Botany, Bradyrhizobium japonicum, Poaceae and Cultivar. His research in Agronomy intersects with topics in Photosynthesis and Loam. His Botany research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Symbiosis, Rhizosphere and Horticulture.

His studies deal with areas such as Nitrogen fixation, Bradyrhizobium, Genistein and Nod as well as Bradyrhizobium japonicum. His studies in Poaceae integrate themes in fields like Crop yield, Field experiment and Mycorrhiza. His studies deal with areas such as Zea mays and Plant production as well as Cultivar.

His most cited work include:

  • Intracellular and extracellular PGPR: commonalities and distinctions in the plant–bacterium signaling processes (569 citations)
  • Photosynthetic responses of corn and soybean to foliar application of salicylates. (417 citations)
  • Acquisition of Cu, Zn, Mn and Fe by mycorrhizal maize (Zea mays L.) grown in soil at different P and micronutrient levels (283 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Agronomy, Botany, Poaceae, Cultivar and Horticulture. His Agronomy research integrates issues from Nitrogen fixation and Bradyrhizobium japonicum. His research integrates issues of Legume, Symbiosis, Rhizobacteria and Inoculation in his study of Nitrogen fixation.

His work carried out in the field of Botany brings together such families of science as Bacteria and Root nodule. His biological study deals with issues like Hybrid, which deal with fields such as Canopy and Population density. His work deals with themes such as Randomized block design, Loam, Plant protein and Sowing, which intersect with Cultivar.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (58.69%)
  • Botany (26.50%)
  • Poaceae (18.80%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Agronomy (58.69%)
  • Rhizobacteria (11.68%)
  • Rhizosphere (8.26%)

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

Donald L. Smith mostly deals with Agronomy, Rhizobacteria, Rhizosphere, Biotechnology and Agriculture. Donald L. Smith frequently studies issues relating to Nutrient and Agronomy. The various areas that he examines in his Rhizobacteria study include Shoot, Botany, Horticulture, Nitrogen fixation and Abiotic stress.

His research in Rhizosphere focuses on subjects like Microbiology, which are connected to Bacteria. His Agriculture study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Plant growth and Microbial inoculant. His Germination research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Peat, Bacillus thuringiensis and Bradyrhizobium japonicum.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Plant hormones and seed germination (273 citations)
  • Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria: Context, Mechanisms of Action, and Roadmap to Commercialization of Biostimulants for Sustainable Agriculture. (243 citations)
  • Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria in Amelioration of Salinity Stress: A Systems Biology Perspective. (145 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Agriculture
  • Ecology

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Rhizobacteria, Biotechnology, Rhizosphere and Germination. The Agronomy study combines topics in areas such as Bradyrhizobium japonicum and Nutrient. His Bradyrhizobium japonicum research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Legume, Cultivar, Bacterial growth, Plant physiology and Bacillus thuringiensis.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Nitrogen fixation, Holobiont, Abiotic stress, Biomass and Microbial inoculant. His study in Rhizosphere is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Inoculation and Microbiology. His Germination study results in a more complete grasp of Botany.
