Elizabeth A. H. Pilon-Smits

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

• Botany
• Ecology
• Enzyme

Her main research concerns Botany, Phytoremediation, Brassica, Stanleya pinnata and Stanleya. Her study in Botany is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Essential nutrient, Hyperaccumulator and Horticulture. Her Phytoremediation research integrates issues from Genetically modified crops, Soil contamination, Pollutant and Glutathione synthetase.

Elizabeth A. H. Pilon-Smits combines subjects such as Molybdate and Shoot with her study of Brassica. The concepts of her Shoot study are interwoven with issues in Biochemistry, Selenate, Biosynthesis and Glutathione. Her Stanleya pinnata research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Nutrient and Agronomy.

Her most cited work include:

• Cadmium Tolerance and Accumulation in Indian Mustard Is Enhanced by Overexpressing γ-Glutamylcysteine Synthetase (481 citations)
• Improved Performance of Transgenic Fructan-Accumulating Tobacco under Drought Stress. (462 citations)
• Overexpression of Glutathione Synthetase in Indian Mustard Enhances Cadmium Accumulation and Tolerance (443 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Botany, Hyperaccumulator, Phytoremediation, Selenate and Biochemistry. She interconnects Stanleya pinnata and Stanleya in the investigation of issues within Botany. Elizabeth A. H. Pilon-Smits has included themes like Speciation, Brassicaceae and Herbivore in her Hyperaccumulator study.

Her Phytoremediation study combines topics in areas such as Environmental chemistry, Rhizosphere and Bioremediation. Her work carried out in the field of Selenate brings together such families of science as Jasmonic acid and Food science. Her study looks at the intersection of Brassica and topics like Glutathione with Biosynthesis.

She most often published in these fields:

• Botany (55.76%)
• Hyperaccumulator (35.15%)
• Phytoremediation (28.48%)

• Hyperaccumulator (35.15%)
• Botany (55.76%)
• Selenate (23.03%)

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

Elizabeth A. H. Pilon-Smits mainly investigates Hyperaccumulator, Botany, Selenate, Biofortification and Phytoremediation. Particularly relevant to Stanleya pinnata is her body of work in Hyperaccumulator. Her work in Stanleya pinnata addresses issues such as Biochemistry, which are connected to fields such as Stanleya.

Her Botany study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Selenium metabolism, Rhizosphere and Astragalus bisulcatus. Her research integrates issues of Enzyme, Cytosol, Dry weight, Bacteria and Shoot in her study of Selenate. Her research on Phytoremediation often connects related topics like Agronomy.

Between 2014 and 2021, her most popular works were:

• Selenium Cycling Across Soil-Plant-Atmosphere Interfaces: A Critical Review (159 citations)
• The fascinating facets of plant selenium accumulation – biochemistry, physiology, evolution and ecology (125 citations)
• Effects of selenium biofortification on crop nutritional quality. (85 citations)

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

• Botany
• Ecology
• Enzyme

Elizabeth A. H. Pilon-Smits mainly investigates Botany, Hyperaccumulator, Biofortification, Selenate and Stanleya pinnata. Her Polyphenol research extends to Botany, which is thematically connected. Her studies deal with areas such as Hydroponics, Food science, Glucoraphanin, Dry weight and Shoot as well as Selenate.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Biochemistry, Non-competitive inhibition and Chromosomal translocation in addition to Shoot. Her Stanleya pinnata study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Brassica, Medicago sativa, Growth medium and Astragalus bisulcatus. Her Phytoremediation research incorporates elements of Endophyte, Herbivore and Agronomy.
