Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Gene
  • Genetics

His primary areas of study are Botany, Mutant, Gibberellin, Pisum and Plant physiology. His work deals with themes such as Cline and Auxin, which intersect with Botany. His study in the field of Wild type is also linked to topics like Nutrient deficiency.

His study in Gibberellin is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Hypocotyl, Anthesis, Abscisic acid and Cell biology. His research in Pisum intersects with topics in Sativum, Endogeny, Allele, Locus and Gibberellic acid. His Plant physiology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Seed dormancy, Embryo and Solanaceae.

His most cited work include:

  • MYC2 differentially modulates diverse jasmonate-dependent functions in Arabidopsis. (711 citations)
  • Internode length in Pisum (286 citations)
  • Seed dormancy and ABA metabolism in Arabidopsis and barley: the role of ABA 8'-hydroxylase (283 citations)

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

James B. Reid focuses on Botany, Pisum, Gibberellin, Mutant and Plant physiology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Strigolactone, Auxin and Horticulture in addition to Botany. His Pisum study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sativum, Wild type, Endogeny, Genotype and Locus.

James B. Reid interconnects Plant stem, Gibberellic acid and Biochemistry, Metabolism in the investigation of issues within Gibberellin. His Mutant research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Mutation and Cell biology. His work carried out in the field of Plant physiology brings together such families of science as Hormone, Abscisic acid, Photomorphogenesis and Etiolation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (52.49%)
  • Pisum (36.88%)
  • Gibberellin (36.21%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2009-2021)?

  • Botany (52.49%)
  • Auxin (11.63%)
  • Gibberellin (36.21%)

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

His main research concerns Botany, Auxin, Gibberellin, Symbiosis and Mutant. Plant physiology and Shoot are subfields of Botany in which his conducts study. His study on Auxin is covered under Biochemistry.

James B. Reid has researched Gibberellin in several fields, including Hormone, Legume, Abscisic acid and Brassinosteroid. The Mutant study combines topics in areas such as Pisum and Cell biology. His Pisum study incorporates themes from Sativum and Seedling.

Between 2009 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Plant hormones in arbuscular mycorrhizal symbioses: An emerging role for gibberellins (155 citations)
  • Strigolactones and the Regulation of Pea Symbioses in Response to Nitrate and Phosphate Deficiency (147 citations)
  • Hormonal changes during non-climacteric ripening in strawberry (145 citations)
