Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Photosynthesis

His primary areas of investigation include Botany, Poaceae, Agronomy, Lolium perenne and Animal science. His studies deal with areas such as Spatial distribution and Horticulture as well as Botany. His research investigates the link between Poaceae and topics such as Anthesis that cross with problems in Plant physiology, Carbohydrate storage, Hordeum vulgare and Plant stem.

His Agronomy study combines topics in areas such as Plant community, Ecology and Deposition. The various areas that he examines in his Lolium perenne study include Photosynthesis and Shoot. His work deals with themes such as Isotopes of nitrogen and Carbohydrate, which intersect with Animal science.

His most cited work include:

  • The role of carbohydrate storage and redistribution in the source‐sink relations of wheat and barley during grain filling — a review (344 citations)
  • Pre-anthesis reserve utilization for protein and carbohydrate synthesis in grains of wheat (151 citations)
  • C-isotope composition of CO2 respired by shoots and roots: fractionation during dark respiration? (131 citations)

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

Hans Schnyder mostly deals with Agronomy, Botany, Photosynthesis, Poaceae and Ecology. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Nutrient and Agronomy. His Botany research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Animal science, Horticulture and Sucrose.

Many of his research projects under Horticulture are closely connected to Environment controlled with Environment controlled, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His research integrates issues of Sunflower, Fructan, Isotopes of carbon, Respiration and Carbon dioxide in his study of Photosynthesis. His Lolium perenne study in the realm of Poaceae connects with subjects such as Dilution.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (34.87%)
  • Botany (28.29%)
  • Photosynthesis (22.37%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Photosynthesis (22.37%)
  • Agronomy (34.87%)
  • Water-use efficiency (9.87%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Photosynthesis, Agronomy, Water-use efficiency, Respiration and Animal science. His Photosynthesis research includes elements of Biological system, Herbaceous plant and Substrate. His Agronomy research incorporates themes from Xylem, Wax and Vegetation.

The concepts of his Water-use efficiency study are interwoven with issues in Park Grass Experiment, Isotopes of carbon, Evergreen and Transpiration. His Respiration study contributes to a more complete understanding of Botany. Hans Schnyder integrates many fields in his works, including Botany and Deposition.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Bundle-sheath leakiness and intrinsic water use efficiency of a perennial C4 grass are increased at high vapour pressure deficit during growth. (16 citations)
  • Abscisic Acid Receptors and Coreceptors Modulate Plant Water Use Efficiency and Water Productivity. (14 citations)
  • Determination of leaf respiration in the light: comparison between an isotopic disequilibrium method and the Laisk method. (13 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis, Agronomy, Animal science, δ18O and Respiration are his primary areas of study. The study incorporates disciplines such as Perennial plant, Biogeochemical cycle and Isotopes of carbon in addition to Photosynthesis. His research in Agronomy intersects with topics in RuBisCO and Analytical chemistry.

His work carried out in the field of Animal science brings together such families of science as Isotopic disequilibrium and Plant physiology. His δ18O research includes themes of Environmental chemistry, Wax and Xylem. His Respiration research entails a greater understanding of Botany.
