Flavia Navari-Izzo

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

• Enzyme
• Botany
• Biochemistry

Flavia Navari-Izzo mainly investigates Botany, Biochemistry, Horticulture, Antioxidant and Glutathione reductase. Her work on Botany deals in particular with Shoot, Photosynthetic efficiency and Drought tolerance. The study of Biochemistry is intertwined with the study of Food science in a number of ways.

The various areas that Flavia Navari-Izzo examines in her Horticulture study include L-ascorbate peroxidase and Osmotic pressure. Her research in Antioxidant intersects with topics in Glutathione and Reductase. Her research integrates issues of Photosynthesis, Antheraxanthin, Zeaxanthin, Neoxanthin and Photoinhibition in her study of Glutathione reductase.

Her most cited work include:

• Heavy metal hyperaccumulating plants: how and why do they do it? And what makes them so interesting? (978 citations)
• Antioxidative Defense System, Pigment Composition, and Photosynthetic Efficiency in Two Wheat Cultivars Subjected to Drought (469 citations)
• Trace element behaviour at the root-soil interface: Implications in phytoremediation (277 citations)

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

Flavia Navari-Izzo mainly focuses on Botany, Horticulture, Biochemistry, Agronomy and Antioxidant. Her Botany research includes themes of L-ascorbate peroxidase and Phytoremediation. Her studies deal with areas such as Salinity and Osmotic pressure as well as Horticulture.

Many of her studies on Biochemistry apply to Hordeum vulgare as well. Her Antioxidant study incorporates themes from Peroxidase, Food science and Reductase. Her Peroxidase study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Superoxide dismutase, Catalase and Hydrogen peroxide.

She most often published in these fields:

• Botany (36.61%)
• Horticulture (26.23%)
• Biochemistry (22.95%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2005-2013)?

• Botany (36.61%)
• Biochemistry (22.95%)
• Antioxidant (14.21%)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Botany, Biochemistry, Antioxidant, Food science and Brassica carinata. Flavia Navari-Izzo has included themes like Phytoremediation and Horticulture in her Botany study. Her work in Horticulture tackles topics such as Salinity which are related to areas like Legume, Photosynthesis and Basilicum.

As part of one scientific family, Flavia Navari-Izzo deals mainly with the area of Antioxidant, narrowing it down to issues related to the Hydroponics, and often Dry weight and L-ascorbate peroxidase. Her Food science research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Tocopherol, Vitamin E, Lipoic acid and Phenols. Her Brassica carinata research integrates issues from Arsenic, Nuclear chemistry, EDDS and Copper.

Between 2005 and 2013, her most popular works were:

• Heavy metal hyperaccumulating plants: how and why do they do it? And what makes them so interesting? (978 citations)
• Trace element behaviour at the root-soil interface: Implications in phytoremediation (277 citations)
• The oxidative stress caused by salinity in two barley cultivars is mitigated by elevated CO2. (164 citations)

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

• Enzyme
• Botany
• Organic chemistry

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, Antioxidant, Phytoremediation, Botany and Food science. Her studies in APX and Glutathione reductase are all subfields of Antioxidant research. Her studies examine the connections between Phytoremediation and genetics, as well as such issues in Soil contamination, with regards to Rhizosphere.

Her Botany research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Titratable acid and Dihydrolipoic acid. Her work is dedicated to discovering how Food science, Tocopherol are connected with Ocimum, Phenols, Rosmarinic acid and ABTS and other disciplines. The concepts of her Phytoextraction process study are interwoven with issues in Defence mechanisms, Herbivore and Metal.
