The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Photosynthesis
  • Ecology

His primary areas of investigation include Horticulture, Photosynthesis, Agronomy, Botany and Poaceae. His study looks at the intersection of Photosynthesis and topics like Carbon dioxide with Root nodule. His Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Low temperature acclimation, Acclimatization and Cold resistance.

His studies in Botany integrate themes in fields like Lipid peroxidation and Catalase. His Lipid peroxidation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Peroxidase, Reactive oxygen species and Superoxide dismutase. His Poaceae study combines topics in areas such as Hydraulic conductivity, Hydraulic conductance and Zea mays.

His most cited work include:

  • Some Enzymes of Hydrogen Peroxide Metabolism in Leaves and Root Nodules of Medicago sativa (192 citations)
  • The Electron Partitioning between the Cytochrome and Alternative Respiratory Pathways during Chilling Recovery in Two Cultivars of Maize Differing in Chilling Sensitivity (121 citations)
  • Alfalfa leaf senescence induced by drought stress: photosynthesis, hydrogen peroxide metabolism, lipid peroxidation and ethylene evolution (109 citations)

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

Juan José Irigoyen mainly focuses on Photosynthesis, Horticulture, Agronomy, Botany and Cultivar. His work deals with themes such as Acclimatization, Carbon dioxide and Shoot, which intersect with Photosynthesis. His Horticulture research focuses on Phenology and how it connects with Climate change.

In his study, Water-use efficiency is inextricably linked to Transpiration, which falls within the broad field of Agronomy. His Botany study incorporates themes from Catalase and Metabolism. His work carried out in the field of Cultivar brings together such families of science as Biomass, Mediterranean climate and Yield.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Photosynthesis (51.39%)
  • Horticulture (43.06%)
  • Agronomy (40.28%)

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

  • Horticulture (43.06%)
  • Cutting (13.89%)
  • Phenology (11.11%)

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

Horticulture, Cutting, Phenology, Agronomy and Photosynthesis are his primary areas of study. His Berry, Cultivar and Anthocyanin study, which is part of a larger body of work in Horticulture, is frequently linked to Creative commons, bridging the gap between disciplines. While the research belongs to areas of Cultivar, he spends his time largely on the problem of Biomass, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Acclimatization.

He interconnects Growing season, Irrigation and Veraison in the investigation of issues within Cutting. His research on Agronomy frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Effects of global warming. His work on Photosynthetic acclimation as part of general Photosynthesis research is frequently linked to Christian ministry, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Tempranillo clones differ in the response of berry sugar and anthocyanin accumulation to elevated temperature. (26 citations)
  • Using fruit-bearing cuttings of grapevine and temperature gradient greenhouses to evaluate effects of climate change (elevated CO2 and temperature, and water deficit) on the cv. red and white Tempranillo. Yield and must quality in three consecutive growing seasons (2013–2015) (15 citations)
  • Metabolic Effects of Elevated CO2 on Wheat Grain Development and Composition. (8 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Photosynthesis
  • Ecology

His main research concerns Agronomy, Cutting, Composition, Horticulture and Berry. His work on Vegetative reproduction is typically connected to Context as part of general Agronomy study, connecting several disciplines of science. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Cutting, narrowing it down to issues related to the Growing season, and often Arid, Stomatal conductance, Climate change scenario and Irrigation.

Composition overlaps with fields such as Metabolic effects, Co2 concentration, Phenology, Grain quality and Wheat grain in his research. Juan José Irigoyen undertakes interdisciplinary study in the fields of Horticulture and Malic acid through his works. The Berry study combines topics in areas such as Sugar, Ripening and Anthocyanin.
