  • 2016 - Fellow of the American Phytopathological Society

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Agronomy
  • Fungus

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Agronomy, Silicon, Botany, Oryza sativa and Soil water. His multidisciplinary approach integrates Agronomy and Plant disease in his work. The Botany study combines topics in areas such as Plant disease resistance, Gene, Hypersensitive response and Magnaporthe grisea.

His Oryza sativa research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Glucanase and Poaceae. His Poaceae study incorporates themes from Upland rice and Cultivar. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Soil water, Fungicide, Integrated pest management, Disease management, Cochliobolus miyabeanus and Human fertilization is strongly linked to Agroforestry.

His most cited work include:

  • Silicon Management and Sustainable Rice Production (447 citations)
  • Silicon in agriculture (357 citations)
  • Silicon nutrition and sugarcane production: A review 1 (282 citations)

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

Lawrence E. Datnoff spends much of his time researching Agronomy, Silicon, Horticulture, Botany and Soil water. His Agronomy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Upland rice, Oryza sativa and Inoculation. His work on Fungicide, Chlorothalonil, Panicle and Pythium is typically connected to Root as part of general Horticulture study, connecting several disciplines of science.

His work on Conidium and Leaf spot as part of general Botany research is frequently linked to Outbreak, Genetic diversity and Veterinary medicine, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. His Soil water research focuses on Fertilizer and how it connects with Mineralogy. His work in Poaceae addresses issues such as Plant disease resistance, which are connected to fields such as Plant nutrition.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (53.40%)
  • Silicon (32.04%)
  • Horticulture (23.30%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Silicon (32.04%)
  • Agronomy (53.40%)
  • Soil water (20.39%)

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

Silicon, Agronomy, Soil water, Plant disease and Slag are his primary areas of study. Throughout his Silicon studies, he incorporates elements of other sciences such as Agriculture, Fertilizer, Agricultural engineering, Panicle and Plant development. His Panicle study which covers Cultivar that intersects with Disease management and Fungicide.

In general Agronomy study, his work on Poa trivialis and Cynodon dactylon often relates to the realm of Mineral, Calcium and Residual activity, thereby connecting several areas of interest. While the research belongs to areas of Soil water, he spends his time largely on the problem of Environmental chemistry, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Crop production. His work in Soil test covers topics such as Soil survey which are related to areas like Plant nutrition.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Silicon's Role in Abiotic and Biotic Plant Stresses. (128 citations)
  • A Review of Silicon in Soils and Plants and Its Role in US Agriculture: History and Future Perspectives (118 citations)
  • Silicon and Plant Diseases (96 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Fungus
  • Horticulture

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Silicon, Agronomy, Soil water, Slag and Randomized block design. Silicon is integrated with Panicle, Horticulture and Nanotechnology in his research. His work carried out in the field of Panicle brings together such families of science as Bipolaris oryzae, Field experiment, Husk, Disease management and Brown spot.

His work on Fungicide, Cultivar, Powdery mildew and Stem rot as part of general Horticulture research is often related to Plant disease, thus linking different fields of science. The concepts of his Soil water study are interwoven with issues in Agriculture, Nitrate and Agroforestry. His study in Slag intersects with areas of studies such as Tiller, Wollastonite, Arsenic, Absorption and Phosphorus.
