Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Bacteria
  • Enzyme

Her main research concerns Medicago truncatula, Cell biology, Rhizobium, Botany and Root nodule. Her Medicago truncatula research integrates issues from Primordium, Transgene, Rhizobia, Sinorhizobium meliloti and Antimicrobial peptides. Her Cell biology research includes elements of Endoreduplication, Cellular differentiation, Cyclin-dependent kinase, Meristem and Plant cell.

The various areas that Eva Kondorosi examines in her Endoreduplication study include Anaphase-promoting complex, Mitosis and Cell division. Her Rhizobium study incorporates themes from Medicago, Microbiology and Root hair. She regularly links together related areas like Symbiosis in her Botany studies.

Her most cited work include:

  • Plant peptides govern terminal differentiation of bacteria in symbiosis. (381 citations)
  • Eukaryotic control on bacterial cell cycle and differentiation in the Rhizobium-legume symbiosis (327 citations)
  • The mitotic inhibitor ccs52 is required for endoreduplication and ploidy-dependent cell enlargement in plants. (300 citations)

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

Eva Kondorosi mainly focuses on Cell biology, Rhizobium, Gene, Botany and Medicago truncatula. Her Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Endoreduplication, Cell cycle, Cell division and Root nodule. Her work deals with themes such as Nod, Mutant, Rhizobiaceae and Microbiology, which intersect with Rhizobium.

To a larger extent, Eva Kondorosi studies Genetics with the aim of understanding Gene. As part of one scientific family, she deals mainly with the area of Botany, narrowing it down to issues related to the Symbiosis, and often Nitrogen fixation. Her study in Medicago truncatula is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Rhizobia, Symbiosome, Genome, Sinorhizobium meliloti and Transformation.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Cell biology (37.00%)
  • Rhizobium (36.00%)
  • Gene (33.50%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Bacteria (20.00%)
  • Medicago truncatula (31.00%)
  • Microbiology (24.50%)

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

Eva Kondorosi mainly investigates Bacteria, Medicago truncatula, Microbiology, Cell biology and Botany. Her work carried out in the field of Bacteria brings together such families of science as Biochemistry, Cell envelope and Membrane permeability. The concepts of her Medicago truncatula study are interwoven with issues in Rhizobia, Gene and Root nodule.

Her Rhizobia study combines topics in areas such as Sinorhizobium meliloti and Cell division. Her Gene study is related to the wider topic of Genetics. Her Cell biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Regulation of gene expression, Symbiosome and Transcriptome.

Between 2011 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Fate map of Medicago truncatula root nodules (158 citations)
  • A Paradigm for Endosymbiotic Life: Cell Differentiation of Rhizobium Bacteria Provoked by Host Plant Factors (115 citations)
  • Medicago truncatula symbiotic peptide NCR247 contributes to bacteroid differentiation through multiple mechanisms (93 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Bacteria
  • Enzyme

Her primary scientific interests are in Rhizobia, Medicago truncatula, Cell biology, Symbiosis and Bacteria. The study incorporates disciplines such as Biochemistry and Cell division in addition to Rhizobia. Medicago truncatula is a subfield of Genetics that Eva Kondorosi investigates.

Her Cell biology research incorporates themes from Botany and Root nodule. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Medicago, Rhizobium and Antimicrobial peptides. Her primary area of study in Bacteria is in the field of Sinorhizobium meliloti.
