Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Botany

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Botany, Arabidopsis, Biochemistry, Mutant and Abscisic acid. Her Botany research focuses on subjects like Gene, which are linked to Pollination. Julie E. Gray has researched Arabidopsis in several fields, including Transcription factor, Carbon dioxide and Transpiration.

Julie E. Gray combines subjects such as Photosynthesis, Ripening, Cloning and Gene expression with her study of Mutant. Julie E. Gray interconnects Cytosol, Plant hormone, Guard cell and Plant evolution in the investigation of issues within Abscisic acid. Signal transduction is a subfield of Cell biology that Julie E. Gray investigates.

Her most cited work include:

  • Vanilloid receptor-1 is essential for inflammatory thermal hyperalgesia (1495 citations)
  • Self-incompatibility in Nicotiana alata involves degradation of pollen rRNA (319 citations)
  • Abscisic acid induces oscillations in guard-cell cytosolic free calcium that involve phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C. (319 citations)

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

Julie E. Gray mainly focuses on Botany, Cell biology, Biochemistry, Guard cell and Arabidopsis. Her Botany study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Arabidopsis thaliana, Mutant, Physcomitrella patens, Plant Stomata and Plant evolution. Her Cell biology research incorporates themes from Transcription factor, Cell division and Proteolysis.

Her Biochemistry study combines topics in areas such as Ripening and Germination. Her research integrates issues of Abscisic acid, Biophysics, Turgor pressure, Phospholipase C and Signalling in her study of Guard cell. Her research in Arabidopsis intersects with topics in Cyclophilin and Carbon dioxide.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (32.09%)
  • Cell biology (31.34%)
  • Biochemistry (34.33%)

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

  • Arabidopsis (21.64%)
  • Arabidopsis thaliana (11.19%)
  • Cell biology (31.34%)

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

Her primary areas of investigation include Arabidopsis, Arabidopsis thaliana, Cell biology, Biophysics and Guard cell. As part of the same scientific family, Julie E. Gray usually focuses on Arabidopsis, concentrating on Abscisic acid and intersecting with Signal transduction and Ion channel. Her work carried out in the field of Arabidopsis thaliana brings together such families of science as Agronomy, Botany, Host, Pseudomonas syringae and Oryza sativa.

Her Botany research incorporates elements of Genetically modified crops, Wild type and Gene expression. Her study in Cell biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ovule, Gametophyte, Pollen tube reception and Filiform apparatus. The concepts of her Guard cell study are interwoven with issues in Mechanics, Plant Stomata and Systems biology.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Rice with reduced stomatal density conserves water and has improved drought tolerance under future climate conditions (93 citations)
  • Impact of Stomatal Density and Morphology on Water-Use Efficiency in a Changing World. (76 citations)
  • Molecular control of stomatal development. (43 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Botany

Julie E. Gray mostly deals with Agronomy, Photosynthesis, Stomatal conductance, Water-use efficiency and Crop. Julie E. Gray works mostly in the field of Agronomy, limiting it down to concerns involving Oryza sativa and, occasionally, Brachypodium distachyon, Botany, Hordeum vulgare and Poaceae. The Stomatal conductance study combines topics in areas such as Chemical physics, Carbon dioxide and Drought tolerance.

Her research in Water-use efficiency intersects with topics in Grain yield and Stomatal density. Her Transpiration research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Plant Stomata, Arabidopsis, Guard cell and Epidermis. As a part of the same scientific family, Julie E. Gray mostly works in the field of Epidermis, focusing on Transcription factor and, on occasion, Arabidopsis thaliana.
