Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Agronomy
  • Botany
  • Ecology

Jairo A. Palta mostly deals with Agronomy, Anthesis, Sowing, Horticulture and Root system. His Agronomy research includes themes of Biomass, Soil water and Photosynthesis. The Biomass study combines topics in areas such as Water use and Irrigation.

Within one scientific family, Jairo A. Palta focuses on topics pertaining to Grain filling under Soil water, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Heat shock protein and Photosynthetic capacity. Jairo A. Palta interconnects Plant nutrition and Botany in the investigation of issues within Horticulture. His Root system research integrates issues from Respiration, Root length and Plant physiology.

His most cited work include:

  • Responses to abiotic stresses. (750 citations)
  • Heat Stress in Wheat during Reproductive and Grain-Filling Phases (391 citations)
  • Remobilization of carbon and nitrogen in wheat as influenced by postanthesis water deficits (244 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Horticulture, Cultivar, Soil water and Root system. His research combines Photosynthesis and Agronomy. In the subject of general Horticulture, his work in Point of delivery and Sowing is often linked to Chemistry, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

The Cultivar study which covers Taproot that intersects with Waterlogging. His Soil water research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Water content and Stomatal conductance. His Root system research incorporates themes from Biomass, Root length, Adaptation, Biomass and Nutrient.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (117.42%)
  • Horticulture (38.20%)
  • Cultivar (40.45%)

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

  • Agronomy (117.42%)
  • Root system (42.70%)
  • Soil water (43.82%)

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

His main research concerns Agronomy, Root system, Soil water, Shoot and Water use. His work deals with themes such as Plant physiology, Topsoil and Stomatal conductance, which intersect with Agronomy. His Root system study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Anthesis, Grain yield, Nutrient and Adaptation.

His study looks at the relationship between Soil water and fields such as Irrigation, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. His studies in Shoot integrate themes in fields like Soil pH and Introgression. Jairo A. Palta focuses mostly in the field of Water use, narrowing it down to topics relating to Water-use efficiency and, in certain cases, Evapotranspiration.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Five decades of selection for yield reduced root length density and increased nitrogen uptake per unit root length in Australian wheat varieties (60 citations)
  • Five decades of selection for yield reduced root length density and increased nitrogen uptake per unit root length in Australian wheat varieties (60 citations)
  • ABA-Mediated Stomatal Response in Regulating Water Use during the Development of Terminal Drought in Wheat. (51 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Agronomy
  • Ecology

His primary areas of study are Agronomy, Root system, Plant physiology, Water use and Soil water. His Agronomy research focuses on subjects like Stomatal conductance, which are linked to Abscisic acid. His Root system study incorporates themes from Anthesis, Shoot and Soil horizon.

His research on Anthesis also deals with topics like

  • Biomass which is related to area like Cultivar and Greenhouse,
  • Soil pH most often made with reference to Sowing. As a part of the same scientific study, Jairo A. Palta usually deals with the Plant physiology, concentrating on Crop and frequently concerns with Ecology, Resistance and Soil type. The concepts of his Water-use efficiency study are interwoven with issues in Evapotranspiration and Transpiration.
