Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Enzyme
  • Agronomy

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Botany, Rhizosphere, Agronomy, Mycorrhiza and Shoot. He has researched Botany in several fields, including Phosphorus, Cluster root and Horticulture. His Rhizosphere research integrates issues from Root system and Root hair.

The study of Agronomy is intertwined with the study of Ferric-chelate reductase activity in a number of ways. His Ferric-chelate reductase activity research includes themes of Ionomics, Plant nutrition, Xylem and Nicotianamine synthase. The Mycorrhiza study combines topics in areas such as Glomus, Soil water and Phosphate.

His most cited work include:

  • Mineral Nutrition of Higher Plants (15591 citations)
  • Magnesium Deficiency and High Light Intensity Enhance Activities of Superoxide Dismutase, Ascorbate Peroxidase, and Glutathione Reductase in Bean Leaves (1105 citations)
  • Nutrient uptake in mycorrhizal symbiosis (1079 citations)

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

Horst Marschner mostly deals with Botany, Agronomy, Shoot, Horticulture and Rhizosphere. Horst Marschner combines subjects such as Zinc and Solanaceae with his study of Botany. Horst Marschner works mostly in the field of Agronomy, limiting it down to topics relating to Phosphorus and, in certain cases, Fertilizer, as a part of the same area of interest.

His Shoot research incorporates themes from Glomus, Dry weight, Cultivar and Plant nutrition. His Horticulture study incorporates themes from Potassium and Phosphorus deficiency. His Rhizosphere research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Environmental chemistry and Picea abies.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (46.35%)
  • Agronomy (34.90%)
  • Shoot (29.17%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1995-2016)?

  • Agronomy (34.90%)
  • Shoot (29.17%)
  • Botany (46.35%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Shoot, Botany, Horticulture and Poaceae. His study in Agronomy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Phosphorus and Crop residue. His Shoot study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Soil compaction, Plant physiology, Secale, Rhizosphere and Root system.

The concepts of his Rhizosphere study are interwoven with issues in Microorganism and Rootstock. His work carried out in the field of Botany brings together such families of science as Mycorrhiza, Metabolism and Thiamine. His Horticulture study incorporates themes from Picea abies and Soil water.

Between 1995 and 2016, his most popular works were:

  • Effect of mineral nutritional status on shoot-root partitioning of photoassimilates and cycling of mineral nutrients (457 citations)
  • Roots of Iron-Efficient Maize also Absorb Phytosiderophore-Chelated Zinc (189 citations)
  • Phytosiderophore release in bread and durum wheat genotypes differing in zinc efficiency (133 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Enzyme
  • Agronomy

His primary areas of study are Shoot, Agronomy, Poaceae, Botany and Zinc. His research integrates issues of Dry matter, Photosynthate partitioning, Cycling, Secale and Root system in his study of Shoot. His Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Soil water and Phosphorus.

In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Poaceae, Chelation and Chromosomal translocation is strongly linked to Siderophore. His Botany study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Nutrient cycle, Plant nutrition and Mycorrhiza. His Zinc deficiency research incorporates themes from Horticulture and Plant physiology.
