Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Botany

Katharina Pawlowski mainly focuses on Botany, Actinorhizal plant, Frankia, Root nodule and Symbiosis. Katharina Pawlowski has researched Botany in several fields, including Arbuscular mycorrhiza, Nitrogen fixation, Mycorrhiza and Intracellular. Her research investigates the connection between Intracellular and topics such as Plant species that intersect with problems in Auxin.

Her research integrates issues of Complementary DNA, cDNA library, Gene and Rhizobia in her study of Actinorhizal plant. Her Frankia research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Candidatus, Casuarinaceae, Rosales, Casuarina glauca and Datisca glomerata. The various areas that Katharina Pawlowski examines in her Symbiosis study include Phylogenomics and Phylogenetics.

Her most cited work include:

  • Symbiotic Nitrogen Fixation. (523 citations)
  • Rhizobial and Actinorhizal Symbioses: What Are the Shared Features? (191 citations)
  • Piriformospora indica affects plant growth by auxin production. (181 citations)

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

Katharina Pawlowski mostly deals with Botany, Actinorhizal plant, Frankia, Root nodule and Symbiosis. The Botany study combines topics in areas such as Nitrogen fixation, Datisca glomerata and Gene, Auxin. Her Regulator gene and cDNA library study in the realm of Gene interacts with subjects such as Nodule.

Her research in Actinorhizal plant intersects with topics in Rhizobia, Casuarinaceae, Molecular biology, Root hair and Medicago truncatula. Her Frankia research incorporates elements of Candidatus, Biochemistry, Nodule, Rhizobium and Casuarina glauca. Her Root nodule study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Ecology, Legume, Lotus japonicus, Plant physiology and Phylogenetics.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (69.34%)
  • Actinorhizal plant (57.66%)
  • Frankia (54.74%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Botany (69.34%)
  • Frankia (54.74%)
  • Actinorhizal plant (57.66%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Botany, Frankia, Actinorhizal plant, Symbiosis and Root nodule. Her Botany study frequently links to related topics such as Datisca glomerata. Her research integrates issues of Photosynthesis, Biochemistry, Salinity, Candidatus and Casuarina glauca in her study of Frankia.

Her Actinorhizal plant research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Rhizobia, Ecology, Biotechnology, Actinobacteria and Medicago truncatula. Her studies in Symbiosis integrate themes in fields like Cyanobacteria, Nostoc, Nitrogen fixation and Clade. Her Root nodule research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Windbreak, Phylogenetics, Casuarina, Shoot and Arid.

Between 2013 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Phylogenomics reveals multiple losses of nitrogen-fixing root nodule symbiosis (132 citations)
  • Candidatus Frankia Datiscae Dg1, the Actinobacterial Microsymbiont of Datisca glomerata , Expresses the Canonical nod Genes nodABC in Symbiosis with Its Host Plant (54 citations)
  • An assemblage of Frankia Cluster II strains from California contains the canonical nod genes and also the sulfotransferase gene nodH (30 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Botany

Botany, Frankia, Actinorhizal plant, Symbiosis and Rosales are her primary areas of study. Katharina Pawlowski combines topics linked to Root nodule with her work on Botany. While the research belongs to areas of Frankia, Katharina Pawlowski spends her time largely on the problem of Candidatus, intersecting her research to questions surrounding Coriaria and Datisca.

She combines subjects such as Endoplasmic reticulum, Calreticulin, Cell biology, Plant cell and Cell wall with her study of Actinorhizal plant. Katharina Pawlowski has included themes like Salinity, Clade and Plant physiology in her Symbiosis study. Her Rosales research includes themes of Rhizobia and Datisca glomerata.
