Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Gene
  • DNA

J. B. Power focuses on Botany, Protoplast, Callus, Somatic cell and Shoot. His Botany research incorporates themes from Solanaceae, Agrobacterium and Tissue culture. The Protoplast study combines topics in areas such as Plating efficiency, Pyrus communis, Division and Hybrid.

His work carried out in the field of Callus brings together such families of science as Rosaceae, Regeneration, Genetically modified crops, Callus formation and Seedling. His work deals with themes such as Petunia hybrida and Cell biology, which intersect with Somatic cell. His Shoot course of study focuses on Cultivar and Lactuca, Genotype and Agrobacterium tumefaciens.

His most cited work include:

  • Fusion of isolated plant protoplasts. (173 citations)
  • Somatic hybridisation of Petunia hybrida and P. parodii (121 citations)
  • Isolation of Leaf Protoplasts: Macromolecule Uptake and Growth Substance Response (103 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Botany, Protoplast, Shoot, Callus and Hybrid. His research in Botany intersects with topics in Horticulture, Explant culture, Solanaceae, Somatic fusion and Tissue culture. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cell culture, Plating efficiency, Petunia, Regeneration and Electroporation.

He interconnects Axenic, Murashige and Skoog medium, Micropropagation, Organogenesis and Cytokinin in the investigation of issues within Shoot. His studies in Callus integrate themes in fields like Hypocotyl, Rosaceae, Callus formation and Seedling. The various areas that J. B. Power examines in his Hybrid study include Ploidy and Somatic cell.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (69.84%)
  • Protoplast (52.38%)
  • Shoot (25.93%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1997-2015)?

  • Botany (69.84%)
  • Protoplast (52.38%)
  • Horticulture (13.23%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Botany, Protoplast, Horticulture, Explant culture and Genetically modified crops. His Botany research includes themes of Gene, Transgene and Agrobacterium. His Protoplast study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cell culture, Lolium multiflorum, Cell biology, Somatic fusion and Oryza sativa.

His work carried out in the field of Horticulture brings together such families of science as Kinetin, Axenic and Somatic embryogenesis. In his study, Callus, Polyethylene glycol and Hordeum vulgare is strongly linked to Transformation, which falls under the umbrella field of Explant culture. His research in Genetically modified crops focuses on subjects like Gene expression, which are connected to Cellular differentiation.

Between 1997 and 2015, his most popular works were:

  • Production of asiaticoside and madecassoside in Centella asiatica in vitro and in vivo (63 citations)
  • Genetic diversity in mung bean germplasm revealed by RAPD markers (61 citations)
  • Over-expression of a gibberellin 2-oxidase gene from Phaseolus coccineus L. enhances gibberellin inactivation and induces dwarfism in Solanum species (53 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Gene
  • DNA

His main research concerns Botany, Gene expression, Molecular biology, Agrobacterium and Genetically modified crops. His Botany research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Gene and Transgene. His Gene expression research incorporates themes from Clinostat and Cell biology.

The Molecular biology study which covers Mitosis that intersects with Cytoplasm and Genome. He has researched Agrobacterium in several fields, including Sucrose, Complementary DNA, Agrobacterium tumefaciens and Nitrate reductase. His Callus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of In vitro, Centella, Dry weight, Terpenoid and In vivo.
