Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Gene
  • DNA

Guido Lingua mainly focuses on Botany, Mycorrhiza, Glomeromycota, Phytoremediation and Glomus. His Mycorrhiza research is classified as research in Symbiosis. His research investigates the link between Glomeromycota and topics such as Pseudomonas putida that cross with problems in Germination, Plant morphology, Pseudomonadaceae and Pseudomonadales.

The concepts of his Phytoremediation study are interwoven with issues in Soil contamination and Bioremediation. His Soil contamination course of study focuses on Microbial metabolism and Agronomy. His Glomus research integrates issues from Basilicum, Essential oil, Linalool, Ocimum and Trichome.

His most cited work include:

  • Effects of three AM fungi on growth, distribution of glandular hairs, and essential oil production in Ocimum basilicum L. var. Genovese (247 citations)
  • Beneficial role of plant growth promoting bacteria and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on plant responses to heavy metal stress. (158 citations)
  • Beneficial role of plant growth promoting bacteria and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi on plant responses to heavy metal stress. (158 citations)

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

His main research concerns Botany, Horticulture, Glomus, Inoculation and Symbiosis. His Botany research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Phytoremediation and Mycorrhiza. He has researched Phytoremediation in several fields, including Soil contamination, Plant growth, Agronomy, Cutting and Glomeromycota.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Arbuscular mycorrhiza and Solanaceae in addition to Mycorrhiza. The Horticulture study which covers Microorganism that intersects with Human fertilization. His Glomus study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Basilicum, Essential oil, Ocimum and Secondary metabolism.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (60.00%)
  • Horticulture (24.00%)
  • Glomus (21.33%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Horticulture (24.00%)
  • Vineyard (5.33%)
  • Crop (5.33%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Horticulture, Vineyard, Crop, Inoculation and Rhizosphere. The various areas that Guido Lingua examines in his Horticulture study include Pest control and Phenology. His Vineyard research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Glomus, Glomeraceae, Bacteriome and Integrated pest management.

He has included themes like Pseudomonas fluorescens, Fertilizer, Pesticide, Cucurbita pepo and Pseudomonas in his Inoculation study. His research in Rhizosphere intersects with topics in Agronomy and Soil salinity. His study in Agronomy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Biomass and Rhizobacteria.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Saline and Arid Soils: Impact on Bacteria, Plants, and their Interaction. (8 citations)
  • Selected autochthonous rhizobia, applied in combination with AM fungi, improve seed quality of common bean cultivated in reduced fertilization condition (6 citations)
  • Screening of Bacterial Endophytes Able to Promote Plant Growth and Increase Salinity Tolerance (5 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Gene
  • DNA

Guido Lingua mainly investigates Crop, Horticulture, Biomass, Antibiotic resistance and Sorghum. His studies in Crop integrate themes in fields like Rhizobia, Inoculation, Rhizobium and Root nodule. His Horticulture study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Symbiosis.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Pseudomonas brassicacearum and 16S ribosomal RNA.
