Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Enzyme
  • Gene

Hans Mohr mainly investigates Phytochrome, Sinapis, Biochemistry, Botany and Seedling. Phytochrome combines with fields such as Biophysics and Hypocotyl in his research. His Biophysics study which covers Anthocyanin synthesis that intersects with Light effect.

While working in this field, Hans Mohr studies both Sinapis and Pyruvate carboxylase. In his work, Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase and De novo synthesis is strongly intertwined with Stereochemistry, which is a subfield of Biochemistry. His Seedling study incorporates themes from Enzyme assay and Lipoxygenase.

His most cited work include:

  • Photooxidative destruction of chloroplasts and its consequences for expression of nuclear genes. (180 citations)
  • Inhibition of carotenoid biosynthesis by the herbicide SAN 9789 and its consequences for the action of phytochrome on plastogenesis. (108 citations)
  • THE MODE OF INTERACTION BETWEEN BLUE (UV) LIGHT PHOTORECEPTOR AND PHYTOCHROME IN ANTHOCYANIN FORMATION OF THE SORGHUM SEEDLING (96 citations)

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

Hans Mohr mostly deals with Phytochrome, Botany, Sinapis, Biochemistry and Seedling. Phytochrome combines with fields such as Biophysics, Hypocotyl, Darkness, Chlorophyll and Nitrate reductase in his investigation. His study in Botany is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Sorghum and Horticulture.

His Biochemistry study combines topics in areas such as Nitrate and Cotyledon. His Seedling research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Lipoxygenase, Anthocyanin and High irradiance. His Gene expression research incorporates elements of Photosystem II, Pyruvate carboxylase and Nicotiana tabacum.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Phytochrome (62.60%)
  • Botany (36.64%)
  • Sinapis (35.11%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1992-2006)?

  • Botany (36.64%)
  • Cell (5.34%)
  • Cell biology (7.63%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Botany, Cell, Cell biology, Physiology and Organism. His work carried out in the field of Botany brings together such families of science as Molecular biology, Reporter gene, Spinacia and Nicotiana tabacum. His Cell research integrates issues from Endocrinology, Period, Internal medicine, Endogeny and Circadian rhythm.

His research in Cell biology intersects with topics in Chemical messenger, Plastid, Cell division, Hormone and Auxin. The various areas that Hans Mohr examines in his Organism study include Water stress, Multicellular organism and Transplantation. In his work, Hans Mohr performs multidisciplinary research in Nitrite reductase and Phytochrome.

Between 1992 and 2006, his most popular works were:

  • ABSORPTION SPECTRA OF LEAVES CORRECTED FOR SCATTERING and DISTRIBUTIONAL ERROR: A RADIATIVE TRANSFER and ABSORPTION STATISTICS TREATMENT (77 citations)
  • Effects of Ionising Radiation (24 citations)
  • Deletion analysis of a nitrite-reductase promoter from spinach in transgenic tobacco (23 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Enzyme
  • Gene

His primary areas of investigation include Botany, Nitrite reductase, Gene expression, Spinach and Absorption. His work in the fields of Botany, such as Apex and Phyllotaxis, intersects with other areas such as Xanthium strumarium, Photomorphogenesis and Apical area. He is researching Nitrite reductase as part of the investigation of Biochemistry, Nitrate and Nitrate reductase.

His studies deal with areas such as Hypocotyl and Seedling as well as Biochemistry. His studies in Gene expression integrate themes in fields like Molecular biology, Spinacia and Nicotiana tabacum. Hans Mohr integrates many fields, such as Spinach, Hordeum vulgare and Phytochrome, in his works.
