Marcel Bucher

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Gene
• Enzyme
• Botany

Marcel Bucher mainly focuses on Botany, Mycorrhiza, Symbiosis, Biochemistry and Nutrient. His Botany research incorporates themes from Arabidopsis thaliana and Gene. His Mycorrhiza research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Complementation, Gene rearrangement, Reporter gene and Fungus.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Colletotrichum, Plant use of endophytic fungi in defense, Host and Colonization in addition to Symbiosis. In the field of Biochemistry, his study on Root hair, cDNA library, Chloroplast and Mitochondrion overlaps with subjects such as Ion transporter. His studies in Nutrient integrate themes in fields like Phosphate transport and Fertilizer.

His most cited work include:

• Functional biology of plant phosphate uptake at root and mycorrhiza interfaces (492 citations)
• Potential for increasing the content and bioavailability of Fe, Zn and Ca in plants for human nutrition. (400 citations)
• Molecular mechanisms of phosphate transport in plants. (384 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Botany, Symbiosis, Biochemistry, Gene and Mycorrhiza. Marcel Bucher has researched Botany in several fields, including Nutrient, Phosphate and Cell biology. His Symbiosis study combines topics in areas such as Fungus and Colonization.

The Gene expression, Pyruvate decarboxylase, Transporter and Nucleotide research Marcel Bucher does as part of his general Biochemistry study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Vacuole, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His research in Gene intersects with topics in Phytoremediation and Herbaceous plant. His Mycorrhiza research includes elements of Solanum, Solanum tuberosum and Solanaceae.

He most often published in these fields:

• Botany (60.87%)
• Symbiosis (43.48%)
• Biochemistry (39.13%)

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

• Symbiosis (43.48%)
• Botany (60.87%)
• Nutrient (17.39%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Symbiosis, Botany, Nutrient, Host and Rhizophagus irregularis. His work on Lotus japonicus as part of general Symbiosis research is often related to Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, thus linking different fields of science. His Botany study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Rhizosphere and Microbial population biology.

The Nutrient study combines topics in areas such as Arabidopsis thaliana, Brassicaceae, Starvation response and Bulk soil. As a member of one scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Colonisation, focusing on Gene and, on occasion, Evolutionary biology. His work on Nucleotide and Phosphate as part of general Biochemistry research is frequently linked to Lipid biosynthesis, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• AP2 transcription factor CBX1 with a specific function in symbiotic exchange of nutrients in mycorrhizal Lotus japonicus (20 citations)
• Plant‐mediated effects of soil phosphorus on the root‐associated fungal microbiota in Arabidopsis thaliana (17 citations)
• Natural variation at OsCERK1 regulates arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis in rice. (9 citations)

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

• Gene
• Enzyme
• Botany

His main research concerns Symbiosis, Botany, Nutrient, Gene and Colonisation. His Symbiosis study overlaps with Olpidium brassicae and Lipid biosynthesis. His Olpidium brassicae research includes a combination of various areas of study, such as Starvation response, Bulk soil, Brassicaceae and Arabidopsis thaliana.

Heterologous expression, Periarbuscular membrane, Fatty acid synthesis, Promoter and Biochemistry are fields of study that intersect with his Lipid biosynthesis research. Marcel Bucher has included themes like Transcription factor and Lotus japonicus in his Heterologous expression study. In his works, he conducts interdisciplinary research on Gene and Rhizophagus irregularis.
