  • Horticulture (54.59%)
  • Agronomy (26.20%)

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

Luis Romero focuses on Botany, Horticulture, Agronomy, Cherry tomato and Nutrient. His research integrates issues of Malondialdehyde and Metabolism in his study of Botany. His Horticulture research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Proline, Carotenoid and Toxicity.

Luis Romero has researched Agronomy in several fields, including Biomass, Nitrogen and Plant physiology. Luis Romero has included themes like Solanum, Lycopene, Vapour Pressure Deficit and Sucrose in his Cherry tomato study. His Nutrient study incorporates themes from Phosphorus, Calcium and Nitrogen cycle.

Between 2008 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Genotypic differences in some physiological parameters symptomatic for oxidative stress under moderate drought in tomato plants. (249 citations)
  • Production and detoxification of H2O2 in lettuce plants exposed to selenium. (85 citations)
  • Antioxidant response resides in the shoot in reciprocal grafts of drought-tolerant and drought-sensitive cultivars in tomato under water stress (70 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

His main research concerns Botany, Antioxidant, Biochemistry, Cherry tomato and Lipid peroxidation. His study looks at the intersection of Botany and topics like Horticulture with Toxicity. His Antioxidant study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Reactive oxygen species and Food science.

Luis Romero combines subjects such as Photorespiration, Cultivar, Agronomy and Lycopene with his study of Cherry tomato. In his research on the topic of Cultivar, Water content, Rootstock and Shoot is strongly related with Malondialdehyde. His research investigates the connection between Lipid peroxidation and topics such as Peroxidase that intersect with problems in Membrane permeability, Lignin and Hydrogen peroxide.
