Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Agronomy

Glenn B. Gregorio mostly deals with Agronomy, Oryza sativa, Plant breeding, Quantitative trait locus and Genetics. His Agronomy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Japonica, Human nutrition, Trace mineral and Abiotic stress. His studies in Abiotic stress integrate themes in fields like Cultivar and Genetic diversity.

His Oryza sativa research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Population size and Heterosis. His Plant breeding research incorporates themes from Diallel cross, Phytotron, Breeding program, Heritability and Overdominance. Glenn B. Gregorio works mostly in the field of Quantitative trait locus, limiting it down to topics relating to Germplasm and, in certain cases, Biotechnology, Grain quality and Introgression.

His most cited work include:

  • Characterizing the Saltol Quantitative Trait Locus for Salinity Tolerance in Rice (303 citations)
  • Breeding for Trace Mineral Density in Rice (247 citations)
  • Progress in breeding for salinity tolerance and associated abiotic stresses in rice (234 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Agronomy, Oryza sativa, Genetics, Quantitative trait locus and Horticulture. His Plant breeding, Cultivar, Germplasm and Seedling study in the realm of Agronomy connects with subjects such as Geography. The concepts of his Plant breeding study are interwoven with issues in Plant genetics and Abiotic stress.

His Oryza sativa research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Microsatellite, Shoot, Botany and Heritability. The Quantitative trait locus study combines topics in areas such as Introgression, Genetic marker, Backcrossing, Allele and Gene mapping. His work in the fields of Horticulture, such as Bronzing, overlaps with other areas such as Stage.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (46.08%)
  • Oryza sativa (31.37%)
  • Genetics (29.41%)

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

  • Genetics (29.41%)
  • Quantitative trait locus (26.47%)
  • Agronomy (46.08%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, Quantitative trait locus, Agronomy, Horticulture and Oryza sativa. The various areas that he examines in his Quantitative trait locus study include Genetic marker, Plant breeding, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Backcrossing. The study incorporates disciplines such as Genetic gain, Germplasm and Breeding program in addition to Plant breeding.

Many of his research projects under Agronomy are closely connected to Computer science and Agricultural engineering with Computer science and Agricultural engineering, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His study in the fields of Shoot under the domain of Horticulture overlaps with other disciplines such as Stage. His Oryza sativa research includes themes of Evolutionary biology, Domestication, Population bottleneck and Effective population size.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Domestication history and geographical adaptation inferred from a SNP map of African rice (108 citations)
  • Genome-wide association mapping for yield and other agronomic traits in an elite breeding population of tropical rice (Oryza sativa). (103 citations)
  • EGRINs (Environmental Gene Regulatory Influence Networks) in Rice That Function in the Response to Water Deficit, High Temperature, and Agricultural Environments (73 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Botany

Quantitative trait locus, Genetics, Agronomy, Genetic marker and Single-nucleotide polymorphism are his primary areas of study. His Quantitative trait locus research integrates issues from Association mapping, Biotechnology, Linkage disequilibrium and Plant breeding. His Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Genetic gain and Introgression.

His Genetic marker research includes elements of Gene family, SNP genotyping, Backcrossing, Gene mapping and Genotype. Glenn B. Gregorio works mostly in the field of Oryza, limiting it down to concerns involving Evolutionary biology and, occasionally, Oryza sativa. His research integrates issues of Horticulture, Shoot, Botany, Seedling and Genetic variation in his study of Oryza sativa.
