Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Horticulture
  • Agriculture

Jules Janick focuses on Botany, Horticulture, Agronomy, Artemisia annua and Tissue culture. As part of the same scientific family, Jules Janick usually focuses on Botany, concentrating on Organogenesis and intersecting with Carnation. His Horticulture study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Resistance.

Jules Janick has included themes like Natural and Panicum virgatum in his Agronomy study. His work in Tissue culture addresses subjects such as Embryo, which are connected to disciplines such as Germination, Developmental biology, Daucus carota and Desiccation. His Plant breeding research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Subtropics, Agroforestry, Agriculture, Biotechnology and Pest control.

His most cited work include:

  • Trends in new crops and new uses (545 citations)
  • Perspectives on new crops and new uses (509 citations)
  • Plant Breeding Reviews (423 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Horticulture, Botany, Agronomy, Agroforestry and Cultivar. His research on Horticulture frequently links to adjacent areas such as Plant disease resistance. His Botany research incorporates elements of Tissue culture, Somatic embryogenesis and Embryo.

In general Agronomy study, his work on Crop, Crop yield and Plant breeding often relates to the realm of Genetic resources, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Horticulture (31.85%)
  • Botany (24.02%)
  • Agronomy (21.15%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2020)?

  • Horticulture (31.85%)
  • Botany (24.02%)
  • Ancient history (3.66%)

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

Jules Janick focuses on Horticulture, Botany, Ancient history, Art history and Iconography. Horticulture is often connected to Medicinal plants in his work. His research on Botany focuses in particular on Cucumis.

His Ancient history study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Agriculture and Archaeology. His work on Biography, Painting and Folio as part of his general Art history study is frequently connected to Medical doctor, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His study looks at the relationship between Iconography and topics such as Domestication, which overlap with Embryo rescue.

Between 2007 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • A History of Grafting (183 citations)
  • Rosaceae: Taxonomy, Economic Importance, Genomics (76 citations)
  • The Encyclopedia of Fruit & Nuts (68 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Agriculture
  • Ecology

His primary scientific interests are in Botany, Horticulture, Iconography, Artemisia annua and Cucumis. When carried out as part of a general Botany research project, his work on Sour cherry, Rosaceae and Taxonomy is frequently linked to work in Black raspberry and Genomics, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. Jules Janick conducted interdisciplinary study in his works that combined Horticulture and Grafting.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Classical Latin, Domestication, Citrus medica, Melon and Middle Ages in addition to Iconography. His work carried out in the field of Artemisia annua brings together such families of science as Shoot, Floral biology, Crop yield and Pharmacology. As a part of the same scientific study, he usually deals with the Cucumis, concentrating on Cucurbitaceae and frequently concerns with Crop diversity, Ethnology, Citrullus and Key.
