Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Gene
  • Biochemistry

His primary scientific interests are in Gravitropism, Botany, Arabidopsis, Arabidopsis thaliana and Biophysics. In his study, Aquatic organisms and Neuroscience is strongly linked to Negative gravitropism, which falls under the umbrella field of Gravitropism. He combines subjects such as Amyloplast, Plastid and Mutant with his study of Botany.

His studies in Arabidopsis thaliana integrate themes in fields like Wild type and Cell biology. His research in Cell biology intersects with topics in Electron microscope and Cell growth. The various areas that he examines in his Biophysics study include Ultrastructure, Phototropism, Plant growth, Phytochrome and Golgi apparatus.

His most cited work include:

  • Amyloplasts are necessary for full gravitropic sensitivity in roots of Arabidopsis thaliana. (281 citations)
  • Mechanisms of the early phases of plant gravitropism. (219 citations)
  • Macromolecular differentiation of Golgi stacks in root tips of Arabidopsis and Nicotiana seedlings as visualized in high pressure frozen and freeze-substituted samples. (156 citations)

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

John Z. Kiss focuses on Botany, Gravitropism, Arabidopsis, Phototropism and Arabidopsis thaliana. His Botany study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Wild type. The various areas that John Z. Kiss examines in his Gravitropism study include Biophysics, Amyloplast, Plastid and Endodermis.

His Arabidopsis research includes themes of Root cap, Statocyte and Cell biology. His research in Phototropism intersects with topics in Plant growth, Phytochrome, Photomorphogenesis and Phytochrome A. His research investigates the connection with Arabidopsis thaliana and areas like Gravity which intersect with concerns in Gravitation and Shoot.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (49.19%)
  • Gravitropism (45.16%)
  • Arabidopsis (39.52%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Spaceflight (23.39%)
  • Phototropism (37.90%)
  • Botany (49.19%)

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

John Z. Kiss spends much of his time researching Spaceflight, Phototropism, Botany, Arabidopsis and Cell biology. The concepts of his Phototropism study are interwoven with issues in Arabidopsis thaliana, Gravitropism and Phytochrome. His studies in Arabidopsis thaliana integrate themes in fields like Biophysics, Gravity and Ecotype.

His Gravitropism research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Auxin and Shoot. His Colonization research extends to the thematically linked field of Botany. His Arabidopsis study improves the overall literature in Mutant.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Space, the final frontier: A critical review of recent experiments performed in microgravity. (45 citations)
  • Plant biology in reduced gravity on the Moon and Mars (42 citations)
  • Light and gravity signals synergize in modulating plant development (42 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Gene
  • Biochemistry

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Spaceflight, International Space Station, Phytochrome, Phototropism and Spacecraft. He regularly ties together related areas like Space Shuttle in his Spaceflight studies. In the field of International Space Station, his study on Space colonization overlaps with subjects such as Plant biology, Limited access, Special care and Context.

His studies deal with areas such as Biophysics, Arabidopsis, Phytochrome A, Gravity and Light intensity as well as Phytochrome. His Phototropism research includes elements of Arabidopsis thaliana, Genetics, Botany, Cell cycle and Auxin. His Life support system research extends to Spacecraft, which is thematically connected.
