Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His main research concerns Gene, Arabidopsis, Genetics, Botany and Gene expression. His work on Gene is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Molecular biology. His Arabidopsis study combines topics in areas such as Arabidopsis thaliana, Abscisic acid and Root hair.

The Botany study combines topics in areas such as Genlisea, Genome size, Cell biology, Genetically modified crops and Nutrient. Luis Herrera-Estrella interconnects Auxin and Cellular differentiation in the investigation of issues within Cell biology. His study in Gene expression is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Regulation of gene expression and Transcription.

His most cited work include:

  • The role of nutrient availability in regulating root architecture. (1003 citations)
  • Expression of chimaeric genes transferred into plant cells using a Ti-plasmid-derived vector (582 citations)
  • Phosphate Availability Alters Architecture and Causes Changes in Hormone Sensitivity in the Arabidopsis Root System (566 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Gene, Botany, Genetics, Cell biology and Biochemistry. Gene is closely attributed to Molecular biology in his work. His work deals with themes such as Genetically modified crops, Transcriptome, Cytokinin and Transformation, which intersect with Botany.

The various areas that Luis Herrera-Estrella examines in his Cell biology study include Cellular differentiation, Biosynthesis, Arabidopsis, Meristem and Auxin. His Arabidopsis research focuses on Root hair and how it connects with Lateral root formation. His study on Chloroplast is often connected to Sucrose-phosphate synthase as part of broader study in Biochemistry.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Gene (35.59%)
  • Botany (25.98%)
  • Genetics (21.71%)

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

  • Cell biology (19.57%)
  • Gene (35.59%)
  • Biochemistry (17.44%)

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

Luis Herrera-Estrella focuses on Cell biology, Gene, Biochemistry, Botany and Meristem. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Arabidopsis, Biosynthesis and Marchantia polymorpha. His research in Arabidopsis intersects with topics in Arabidopsis thaliana, Plant nutrition, Cellular differentiation, Mediator and Auxin.

His study connects Trichoderma reesei and Gene. His work on Heterologous expression and Malic acid as part of general Biochemistry study is frequently linked to Tandem mass spectrometry and Mass spectrometry imaging, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. His research integrates issues of Arbuscular mycorrhiza, Symbiosis, Oryza sativa and Nitrate in his study of Botany.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Plant abiotic stress response and nutrient use efficiency. (72 citations)
  • Plant abiotic stress response and nutrient use efficiency. (72 citations)
  • The avocado genome informs deep angiosperm phylogeny, highlights introgressive hybridization, and reveals pathogen-influenced gene space adaptation. (39 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His scientific interests lie mostly in Nutrient, Cell biology, Botany, Cytokinin and Arabidopsis. The study incorporates disciplines such as Nitrate and Fungus in addition to Nutrient. He integrates Botany and Rhizophagus irregularis in his research.

His Cytokinin study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Callus, Signal transduction, Crosstalk and Strigolactone. Luis Herrera-Estrella has included themes like Meristem, Phosphate, Agave salmiana, Organogenesis and Auxin in his Arabidopsis study. His studies in Meristem integrate themes in fields like Limiting factor, Arabidopsis thaliana, Plant nutrition and Cellular differentiation.
