Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Botany
  • Gene

His primary areas of investigation include Botany, Shoot, Nitrate reductase, Biochemistry and Arabidopsis thaliana. His Botany research includes themes of Superoxide dismutase, Catalase and Horticulture. His study focuses on the intersection of Shoot and fields such as Chromosomal translocation with connections in the field of Xylem and Nuclear chemistry.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Nitrite, Sativum and Pisum in addition to Nitrate reductase. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including High-performance liquid chromatography and Heavy metals. His Arabidopsis thaliana research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Nitric oxide synthase and Auxin.

His most cited work include:

  • The Effects of Cadmium on the Fluidity and H+-ATPase Activity of Plasma Membrane from Sunflower and Wheat Roots (171 citations)
  • Exogenous auxin-induced NO synthesis is nitrate reductase-associated in Arabidopsis thaliana root primordia. (133 citations)
  • The activity of antioxidant enzymes in maize and sunflower seedlings as affected by salinity and different nitrogen sources (128 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Botany, Biochemistry, Shoot, Horticulture and Osmotic shock. His Poaceae study, which is part of a larger body of work in Botany, is frequently linked to Phragmites, bridging the gap between disciplines. As a member of one scientific family, László Erdei mostly works in the field of Biochemistry, focusing on Biophysics and, on occasion, Peroxynitrite and Hydrogen peroxide.

In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Horticulture, Photosynthesis and Turgor pressure is strongly linked to Agronomy. His research integrates issues of Pisum, Abscisic acid and Osmosis in his study of Osmotic shock. His research investigates the link between Drought tolerance and topics such as Cultivar that cross with problems in Chlorophyll fluorescence and Plant physiology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (36.99%)
  • Biochemistry (36.30%)
  • Shoot (23.29%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2020)?

  • Biochemistry (36.30%)
  • Reactive oxygen species (8.22%)
  • Arabidopsis (8.90%)

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

László Erdei mostly deals with Biochemistry, Reactive oxygen species, Arabidopsis, Botany and Oxidative stress. His studies in Biochemistry integrate themes in fields like Phytotoxicity and Plant physiology. His research in Reactive oxygen species intersects with topics in Shoot and Hydrogen peroxide.

His Arabidopsis study incorporates themes from Arabidopsis thaliana, Cytokinin, Cotyledon and Cell biology. His Botany research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Superoxide dismutase, Antioxidant, Phytoremediation and Horticulture. László Erdei usually deals with Abscisic acid and limits it to topics linked to Biosynthesis and Drought tolerance and Osmotic shock.

Between 2010 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Involvement of nitric oxide and auxin in signal transduction of copper-induced morphological responses in Arabidopsis seedlings (84 citations)
  • Physiological and morphological responses of the root system of Indian mustard (Brassica juncea L. Czern.) and rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) to copper stress. (80 citations)
  • Selenite-induced hormonal and signalling mechanisms during root growth of Arabidopsis thaliana L. (79 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Botany

László Erdei mainly investigates Biochemistry, Arabidopsis, Reactive oxygen species, Cell biology and Botany. His Reactive oxygen species study combines topics in areas such as Brassica, Oxidative stress and Hydrogen peroxide. His research investigates the connection with Hydrogen peroxide and areas like Biophysics which intersect with concerns in Meristem and Peroxynitrite.

The concepts of his Cell biology study are interwoven with issues in Arabidopsis thaliana, Auxin and Nitrate reductase. László Erdei has researched Auxin in several fields, including Mutant, Shoot and Plant physiology. His study on Drought tolerance is often connected to Elongation as part of broader study in Botany.
