Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Agronomy
  • Ecology
  • Agriculture

Gurjeet Gill mostly deals with Agronomy, Weed, Lolium rigidum, Weed control and Seedling. Germination, Crop yield, Integrated pest management, Tillage and Irrigation are the subjects of his Agronomy studies. His Germination research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Salinity and Osmotic pressure.

The concepts of his Crop yield study are interwoven with issues in Grain yield, Cultivar and Crop. Many of his studies on Weed apply to Plant breeding as well. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Trifluralin and Acetolactate synthase.

His most cited work include:

  • Genetic improvement and agronomy for enhanced wheat competitiveness with weeds (188 citations)
  • Tillage system effects on weed ecology, herbicide activity and persistence: a review (134 citations)
  • Influence of tillage systems on vertical distribution, seedling recruitment and persistence of rigid ryegrass (Lolium rigidum) seed bank (119 citations)

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

His main research concerns Agronomy, Weed, Weed control, Lolium rigidum and Crop. His study in Sowing, Trifluralin, Crop yield, Germination and Seedling falls under the purview of Agronomy. His work carried out in the field of Weed brings together such families of science as Growing season, Agriculture, Horticulture and Acetolactate synthase.

His Weed control research incorporates themes from Cropping and Tillage. Gurjeet Gill works mostly in the field of Lolium rigidum, limiting it down to concerns involving Resistance and, occasionally, Glyphosate, Botany and Cross-resistance. His Crop research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Metribuzin and Competition.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (75.80%)
  • Weed (39.49%)
  • Weed control (30.57%)

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

  • Agronomy (75.80%)
  • Weed (39.49%)
  • Lolium rigidum (25.48%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Agronomy, Weed, Lolium rigidum, Resistance and Glyphosate. Weed control, Sowing, Herbicide resistant, Water-use efficiency and Crop yield are among the areas of Agronomy where Gurjeet Gill concentrates his study. Gurjeet Gill interconnects Seed dormancy, Salinity and Horticulture in the investigation of issues within Weed.

His Lolium rigidum study combines topics in areas such as Clomazone, Trifluralin, Bromus diandrus and Thiocarbamate. His research investigates the link between Resistance and topics such as Acetolactate synthase that cross with problems in Erigeron, Paraquat and Clopyralid. His work carried out in the field of Glyphosate brings together such families of science as Gene duplication and Botany.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • EPSPS gene amplification conferring resistance to glyphosate in windmill grass (Chloris truncata) in Australia. (33 citations)
  • Target-site mutations conferring resistance to glyphosate in feathertop Rhodes grass (Chloris virgata) populations in Australia. (24 citations)
  • Resistance to Multiple PRE Herbicides in a Field-Evolved Rigid Ryegrass (Lolium rigidum) Population (12 citations)

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

  • Agriculture
  • Ecology
  • Agronomy

His primary scientific interests are in Agronomy, Resistance, Glyphosate, Cross-resistance and Gene. His study in Lolium rigidum and Weed is carried out as part of his studies in Agronomy. His research integrates issues of Dinitroaniline and Trifluralin in his study of Lolium rigidum.

As a part of the same scientific study, he usually deals with the Weed, concentrating on Weed control and frequently concerns with Cover crop, Crop yield and Sesbania. His research in Glyphosate focuses on subjects like Botany, which are connected to Gene duplication and Northern australia. He works mostly in the field of Cross-resistance, limiting it down to topics relating to Thiocarbamate and, in certain cases, Prosulfocarb, Chloroacetamide and Thiocarbamates, as a part of the same area of interest.
