Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Botany

Jutta Ludwig-Müller spends much of her time researching Auxin, Botany, Biochemistry, Arabidopsis thaliana and Clubroot. Her studies deal with areas such as Auxin homeostasis, Amidohydrolase, Mutant and Cell biology as well as Auxin. Her Botany research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Jasmonic acid, Symbiosis, Mycorrhiza and Abscisic acid.

The Arabidopsis thaliana study combines topics in areas such as Secondary metabolism, Etiolation and Plant physiology. Her Clubroot study combines topics in areas such as Molecular biology, Beta-glucuronidase, Cauliflower mosaic virus and Trehalase activity. Her research investigates the connection with Indole-3-butyric acid and areas like Biosynthesis which intersect with concerns in Metabolism, Genetically modified tomato and Solanum.

Her most cited work include:

  • Auxin conjugates: their role for plant development and in the evolution of land plants (378 citations)
  • Indole-3-butyric acid in plant growth and development (255 citations)
  • Transcriptome analysis of Arabidopsis clubroots indicate a key role for cytokinins in disease development. (216 citations)

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

Her primary areas of study are Botany, Auxin, Biochemistry, Arabidopsis thaliana and Clubroot. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Inoculation, Abscisic acid and Arbuscular mycorrhiza, Symbiosis, Mycorrhiza. Jutta Ludwig-Müller is studying Indole-3-butyric acid, which is a component of Auxin.

Biosynthesis, Indole-3-acetic acid, Enzyme, Amino acid and Tryptophan are the subjects of her Biochemistry studies. The concepts of her Arabidopsis thaliana study are interwoven with issues in Plant hormone, Arabidopsis, Wild type, Molecular biology and Nitrilase. Her research investigates the link between Clubroot and topics such as Gene that cross with problems in Medicago truncatula.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (43.12%)
  • Auxin (41.28%)
  • Biochemistry (36.70%)

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

  • Auxin (41.28%)
  • Cell biology (10.55%)
  • Biochemistry (36.70%)

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

Her main research concerns Auxin, Cell biology, Biochemistry, Clubroot and Tryptophan. Her work in the fields of Cytokinin overlaps with other areas such as Side chain. Her Cell biology study incorporates themes from Auxin homeostasis, Plant development and Precursor cell.

Jutta Ludwig-Müller interconnects Salicylic acid, Plasmodiophora brassicae, Gene and Microbiology in the investigation of issues within Clubroot. Within one scientific family, Jutta Ludwig-Müller focuses on topics pertaining to Indole test under Tryptophan, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Brassica rapa, Wild type, Indole-3-acetic acid, Jasmonic acid and Brassica. Her Botany research incorporates elements of Arbuscular mycorrhiza and Pigment.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Comparative genomic and transcriptomic analyses of Family-1 UDP glycosyltransferase in three Brassica species and Arabidopsis indicates stress-responsive regulation. (40 citations)
  • Early response to salt ions in maize (Zea mays L.). (14 citations)
  • Algerian Sahara PGPR confers maize root tolerance to salt and aluminum toxicity via ACC deaminase and IAA (12 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Botany

Jutta Ludwig-Müller mostly deals with Horticulture, Biosynthesis, Plant hormone, Rhizobacteria and Abiotic stress. Jutta Ludwig-Müller has researched Horticulture in several fields, including Cytokinin and Auxin. Biosynthesis is a primary field of her research addressed under Biochemistry.

Her Biochemistry study typically links adjacent topics like Symphytum officinale. As part of the same scientific family, she usually focuses on Plant hormone, concentrating on Jasmonic acid and intersecting with Clubroot. Her Abiotic stress study incorporates themes from Brassica, KEGG, Arabidopsis and Gene expression profiling.
