Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Botany

His scientific interests lie mostly in Botany, Tetranychus urticae, Herbivore, Jasmonic acid and Green leaf volatiles. His Botany research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Molecular ecology and Ecosystem. His Tetranychus urticae research includes elements of Salicylic acid, Phytoseiidae, Lima beans and Jasmonate.

His Herbivore study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Biotic stress, Signalling pathways and Plant physiology. His Jasmonic acid research incorporates elements of Phaseolus and Biosynthesis. His research in Green leaf volatiles intersects with topics in Botrytis cinerea, Botrytis, Fungus and Arabidopsis.

His most cited work include:

  • Herbivory-induced volatiles elicit defence genes in lima bean leaves. (572 citations)
  • Herbivore-induced, indirect plant defences. (401 citations)
  • Chemical and molecular ecology of herbivore-induced plant volatiles: proximate factors and their ultimate functions. (381 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Botany, Herbivore, Biochemistry, Jasmonic acid and Plant defense against herbivory. The concepts of his Botany study are interwoven with issues in Spider, Arabidopsis and Gene. In general Herbivore study, his work on Plant tolerance to herbivory often relates to the realm of Priming, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

The Jasmonic acid study combines topics in areas such as Photosynthesis, Phaseolus, Biological pest control and Parasitism. His research integrates issues of Salicylic acid, Pest control, Elicitor and Solanaceae in his study of Plant defense against herbivory. His Tetranychus urticae study combines topics in areas such as Jasmonate and Lotus japonicus.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (56.99%)
  • Herbivore (26.88%)
  • Biochemistry (19.35%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Plant defense against herbivory (18.28%)
  • Herbivore (26.88%)
  • Arabidopsis (16.13%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Plant defense against herbivory, Herbivore, Arabidopsis, Spodoptera litura and Cell biology. His studies in Plant defense against herbivory integrate themes in fields like Potentiator and Botany, Terpenoid. His Botany research integrates issues from Regulator, Gene and Promoter.

Herbivore is a subfield of Ecology that Gen Ichiro Arimura investigates. His Arabidopsis study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Defensin, Regulation of gene expression, Ubiquitin ligase and Arabidopsis thaliana. Gen Ichiro Arimura combines subjects such as Ubiquitin and Repressor with his study of Cell biology.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • JRE4 is a master transcriptional regulator of defense-related steroidal glycoalkaloids in tomato (29 citations)
  • The Ring-Type E3 Ubiquitin Ligase JUL1 Targets the VQ-Motif Protein JAV1 to Coordinate Jasmonate Signaling (20 citations)
  • Intestinal Anti-Inflammatory Activity of Perillaldehyde (17 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Botany

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Plant defense against herbivory, Priming, Herbivore, Predation and Horticulture. His study with Plant defense against herbivory involves better knowledge in Biochemistry. His Priming research spans across into areas like Resistance, Brassica rapa and Integrated pest management.
