Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Bacteria
  • Ecology

Graziella Berta focuses on Botany, Mycorrhiza, Glomus, Phytoremediation and Symbiosis. The Botany study which covers Proteomics that intersects with Proteome. Her work deals with themes such as Sporophyte, Pteris vittata, Biological pest control, Arbuscular mycorrhiza and Rhizosphere, which intersect with Mycorrhiza.

Graziella Berta has researched Glomus in several fields, including Transplanting, Dry weight, Shoot, Fern and Bulk soil. Her Phytoremediation study combines topics in areas such as Bioremediation, Soil contamination, Glomeromycota and Agronomy. The various areas that Graziella Berta examines in her Symbiosis study include Woody plant, Root morphology and Vitis vinifera.

Her most cited work include:

  • Plant root growth, architecture and function (422 citations)
  • Effects of three AM fungi on growth, distribution of glandular hairs, and essential oil production in Ocimum basilicum L. var. Genovese (247 citations)
  • Arbuscular mycorrhizal induced changes to plant growth and root system morphology in Prunus cerasifera. (196 citations)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Botany, Glomus, Mycorrhiza, Horticulture and Symbiosis. Her Botany study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Arbuscular mycorrhiza and Colonization. The study incorporates disciplines such as Pseudomonas fluorescens, Lycopersicon, Bulk soil and Medicago truncatula in addition to Glomus.

The Mycorrhiza study combines topics in areas such as Allium porrum, Liliaceae, Biological pest control, Rhizosphere and Phycomycetes. Her Horticulture study deals with Microorganism intersecting with Human fertilization. Her research investigates the connection with Inoculation and areas like Agronomy which intersect with concerns in Bacteria and Soil contamination.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (62.59%)
  • Glomus (21.77%)
  • Mycorrhiza (21.09%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Horticulture (19.05%)
  • Botany (62.59%)
  • Inoculation (12.24%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Horticulture, Botany, Inoculation, Symbiosis and Microorganism. Her study on Photosynthesis is often connected to Phosphorus metabolism as part of broader study in Botany. Her studies deal with areas such as Pseudomonas fluorescens, Cucumis, Plant nutrition and Carotenoid as well as Inoculation.

Her Symbiosis study also includes fields such as

  • Fungus and related Glomeromycota, Solanum, Seedling, Abiotic component and Parasitism,

  • Arbuscular mycorrhiza most often made with reference to Mutualism. Her research on Microorganism also deals with topics like

  • Human fertilization and related Bacteria, Food quality and Vitamin,

  • Agronomy, which have a strong connection to Nitrate and Wastewater. Graziella Berta has included themes like Mycorrhiza and Shoot in her Beneficial organism study.

Between 2013 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and plant growth-promoting pseudomonads improve yield, quality and nutritional value of tomato: a field study (87 citations)
  • AM fungi and PGP pseudomonads increase flowering, fruit production, and vitamin content in strawberry grown at low nitrogen and phosphorus levels. (69 citations)
  • Maize development and grain quality are differentially affected by mycorrhizal fungi and a growth-promoting pseudomonad in the field (61 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Bacteria
  • Ecology

Graziella Berta spends much of her time researching Botany, Horticulture, Agronomy, Cadmium and Pteris vittata. Her Botany research focuses on Fungus in particular. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Microorganism, Bacteria, Human fertilization and Terrestrial plant.

Her work investigates the relationship between Agronomy and topics such as Inoculation that intersect with problems in Food quality, Vitamin, Pseudomonas fluorescens, Grain quality and Starch. Her Pseudomonas fluorescens research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Beneficial organism and Mycorrhiza. She interconnects Pteris and Enzyme in the investigation of issues within Pteris vittata.
