Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

His primary scientific interests are in Biochemistry, Botany, Gene, Arabidopsis and Genetics. His studies deal with areas such as Phenylpropene and Sweet Basil as well as Biochemistry. His work in Botany tackles topics such as Terpene which are related to areas like Sesquiterpene, Monoterpene and Genome.

His study looks at the relationship between Gene and topics such as Stamen, which overlap with Scent gland, Outcrossing and Pollination. He works mostly in the field of Arabidopsis, limiting it down to topics relating to Regulation of gene expression and, in certain cases, Indole-3-acetic acid, Auxin homeostasis, Hypocotyl and Auxin. His work on Photosystem I and Proteomics as part of general Genetics research is frequently linked to Gene nomenclature and Tomato yellow leaf curl virus, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

His most cited work include:

  • The formation and function of plant volatiles: perfumes for pollinator attraction and defense (781 citations)
  • Biochemistry of Plant Volatiles (700 citations)
  • The family of terpene synthases in plants: A mid-size family of genes for specialized metabolism that is highly diversified throughout the kingdom (653 citations)

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

His main research concerns Biochemistry, Botany, Gene, Genetics and Enzyme. His study in Arabidopsis, ATP synthase, Biosynthesis, Salicylic acid and Complementary DNA falls under the purview of Biochemistry. Eran Pichersky has researched Arabidopsis in several fields, including Arabidopsis thaliana and Protein family.

He combines subjects such as Eugenol and Terpene with his study of Botany. In most of his Gene studies, his work intersects topics such as Molecular biology. His Enzyme research incorporates elements of Benzoic acid and Methyltransferase.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (49.59%)
  • Botany (31.40%)
  • Gene (27.69%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Biochemistry (49.59%)
  • Botany (31.40%)
  • Gene (27.69%)

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

Eran Pichersky mainly investigates Biochemistry, Botany, Gene, Pyrethrin and Biosynthesis. Biochemistry and Environmental ethics are two areas of study in which Eran Pichersky engages in interdisciplinary research. His study explores the link between Botany and topics such as Terpene that cross with problems in Phylogenetics, Terpenoid, Terpene metabolism and Terpene synthase.

His work carried out in the field of Gene brings together such families of science as Diterpene and Metabolism. His Biosynthesis research includes themes of Methylation and Gene expression. His Enzyme study combines topics in areas such as Monoterpene and Nudix hydrolase.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Why do plants produce so many terpenoid compounds (109 citations)
  • Pollination by sexual deception - it takes chemistry to work (46 citations)
  • A two-component enzyme complex is required for dolichol biosynthesis in tomato (42 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Eran Pichersky mainly focuses on Botany, Terpene, Biochemistry, Terpenoid and Gene expression. His work deals with themes such as Genetically modified crops and Phenylpropanoid, which intersect with Botany. Eran Pichersky focuses mostly in the field of Terpene, narrowing it down to topics relating to Phylogenetics and, in certain cases, Sesquiterpene, Laurus nobilis and Gene family.

As part of his studies on Biochemistry, Eran Pichersky often connects relevant areas like Geraniol. His studies in Terpenoid integrate themes in fields like Evolutionary biology, Terpene synthase and Terpene metabolism. Eran Pichersky has included themes like Petunia, Anthocyanin, Transgene, Structural gene and Pigment in his Gene expression study.
