Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Botany
  • Gene

His scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, APX, Superoxide dismutase, Peroxidase and Botany. His study in Antioxidant, Lipid peroxidation, L-ascorbate peroxidase, Ascorbate glutathione cycle and Glutathione reductase falls within the category of Biochemistry. His research investigates the link between APX and topics such as Stomatal conductance that cross with problems in Animal science, Turgor pressure and Food science.

Superoxide dismutase is a subfield of Enzyme that he studies. His work in Peroxidase addresses subjects such as Apoplast, which are connected to disciplines such as Prunus, Rosaceae, Prunus armeniaca and Cultivar. His Botany research incorporates themes from Glomus and Horticulture.

His most cited work include:

  • Evidence for the Presence of the Ascorbate-Glutathione Cycle in Mitochondria and Peroxisomes of Pea Leaves (736 citations)
  • Tolerance of pea (Pisum sativum L.) to long‐term salt stress is associated with induction of antioxidant defences (685 citations)
  • Salt-induced oxidative stress in chloroplasts of pea plants (577 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Biochemistry, Botany, Superoxide dismutase, Antioxidant and Horticulture. His study in Biochemistry focuses on Peroxidase, Glutathione, Glutathione reductase, Lipid peroxidation and Oxidative stress. His Glutathione reductase study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as L-ascorbate peroxidase, Ascorbate glutathione cycle and Candida albicans.

His research investigates the connection between Botany and topics such as Pox virus that intersect with issues in Germplasm. His work deals with themes such as Vigna, Pisum, Catalase and Callus, which intersect with Superoxide dismutase. The APX and Protein oxidation research José Antonio Hernández does as part of his general Antioxidant study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Redox, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (40.48%)
  • Botany (35.71%)
  • Superoxide dismutase (29.37%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Horticulture (26.98%)
  • Antioxidant (28.57%)
  • Superoxide dismutase (29.37%)

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

José Antonio Hernández mostly deals with Horticulture, Antioxidant, Superoxide dismutase, Salicylic acid and Abscisic acid. His Horticulture study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Photosynthetic efficiency and Compost. His work on Glutathione reductase and Lipid peroxidation as part of general Antioxidant study is frequently linked to Chloride, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

As part of his studies on Glutathione reductase, José Antonio Hernández often connects relevant subjects like Peroxidase. The various areas that José Antonio Hernández examines in his Superoxide dismutase study include Catalase and Locus. Biosynthesis is a subfield of Biochemistry that José Antonio Hernández investigates.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Salinity Tolerance in Plants: Trends and Perspectives. (32 citations)
  • The apoplastic antioxidant system and altered cell wall dynamics influence mesophyll conductance and the rate of photosynthesis. (31 citations)
  • Towards a Sustainable Agriculture: Strategies Involving Phytoprotectants against Salt Stress (9 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Botany

His main research concerns Horticulture, Abiotic component, Context, Antioxidant and Apoplast. His Ornamental plant study in the realm of Horticulture connects with subjects such as Phosphorus. Abiotic component is connected with Plant Physiological Phenomena, Agronomy, Genetically modified organism, Crop production and Salinity stress in his research.

His Context research incorporates elements of Food security, Abiotic stress, Crop yield, Sustainable agriculture and Rhizobacteria. The study incorporates disciplines such as Glutathione and Symplast in addition to Antioxidant. His Apoplast research includes elements of Photosynthesis, Reactive oxygen species, Chloroplast and Biophysics.
