Overview

Kirankumar S. Mysore is affiliated with Oklahoma State University in the United States. Their research spans multiple areas within agricultural and biological sciences, with a focus on plant science and molecular biology. Over their career, they have published extensively in fields such as agricultural and biological sciences and biochemistry, genetics, and molecular biology.

The main subfields of their work include plant science, molecular biology, agronomy and crop science, cell biology, and biotechnology. Their research covers a variety of topics related to plants, including legume nitrogen-fixing symbiosis, plant nutrient uptake and metabolism, plant molecular biology research, plant-microbe interactions and immunity, plant reproductive biology, plant micronutrient interactions and effects, and agronomic practices and intercropping systems.

Frequent coauthors collaborating with Mysore include Jiangqi Wen, Sunhee Oh, Raja Sekhar Nandety, Muthappa Senthil-Kumar, and Chuanen Zhou.

Their recent publication record features studies published in diverse journals, reflecting a range of plant biology and molecular research. Notable recent papers include:

  • "NIN-like protein transcription factors regulate leghemoglobin genes in legume nodules," 2021, Science
  • "Agrobacterium expressing a type III secretion system delivers Pseudomonas effectors into plant cells to enhance transformation," 2022, Nature Communications
  • "The CLE53-SUNN genetic pathway negatively regulates arbuscular mycorrhiza root colonization in Medicago truncatula," 2020, Journal of Experimental Botany
  • "pssRNAit: A Web Server for Designing Effective and Specific Plant siRNAs with Genome-Wide Off-Target Assessment," 2020, PLANT PHYSIOLOGY
  • "A molecular framework underlying the compound leaf pattern of Medicago truncatula," 2020, Nature Plants

Mysore's publications are often found in prominent journals and publication venues such as PLANT PHYSIOLOGY, The Plant Journal, bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), Journal of Experimental Botany, and New Phytologist.

In addition to journal articles, Mysore has contributed to book publications, including a book titled Plant Gene Silencing published by Springer Science+Business Media in 2022.
