Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Botany

Gregory J. Taylor mainly investigates Botany, Biochemistry, Cell biology, Cultivar and Fight-or-flight response. His Botany research integrates issues from Protonophore, Typha and Malic acid. His Tubulin and Microtubule study in the realm of Cell biology connects with subjects such as GTPase-activating protein and Translation.

His Cultivar study deals with the bigger picture of Horticulture. His studies in Horticulture integrate themes in fields like Digestion and 1 3 β d glucan. His studies examine the connections between Fight-or-flight response and genetics, as well as such issues in Resistance, with regards to Membrane transport.

His most cited work include:

  • Use of the DCB Technique for Extraction of Hydrous Iron Oxides from Roots of Wetland Plants. (250 citations)
  • Current views of the aluminum stress response; the physiological basis of tolerance. (234 citations)
  • Genetic engineering of improved nitrogen use efficiency in rice by the tissue‐specific expression of alanine aminotransferase (214 citations)

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

Botany, Cultivar, Poaceae, Agronomy and Biochemistry are his primary areas of study. In the subject of general Botany, his work in Callose is often linked to Elongation, thereby combining diverse domains of study. In his research, Plant growth is intimately related to Aluminium, which falls under the overarching field of Cultivar.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Phytotoxicity, Horticulture, Environmental factor and Plant physiology. Gregory J. Taylor has included themes like Photosynthesis and Al content in his Horticulture study. His Agronomy research includes themes of Essential nutrient, Nutrient, Nitrate and Chromosomal translocation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (39.36%)
  • Cultivar (36.17%)
  • Poaceae (28.72%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2001-2019)?

  • Agronomy (24.47%)
  • Nutrient (15.96%)
  • Biochemistry (21.28%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Agronomy, Nutrient, Biochemistry, Botany and Essential nutrient. His research integrates issues of Cadmium and Chromosomal translocation in his study of Agronomy. His work deals with themes such as Plant growth and Seedling, which intersect with Nutrient.

His Botany study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Aluminium. His study in Germplasm is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Cultivar, Poaceae and Plant physiology. His Phytotoxicity study, which is part of a larger body of work in Horticulture, is frequently linked to Altitude, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Between 2001 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Genetic engineering of improved nitrogen use efficiency in rice by the tissue‐specific expression of alanine aminotransferase (214 citations)
  • Durum wheat genome highlights past domestication signatures and future improvement targets (180 citations)
  • Modulation of Citrate Metabolism Alters Aluminum Tolerance in Yeast and Transgenic Canola Overexpressing a Mitochondrial Citrate Synthase (149 citations)
