Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Enzyme

Her primary scientific interests are in Botany, Stomatal conductance, Rhizophoraceae, Osmotic pressure and Ecophysiology. Her Botany study often links to related topics such as Horticulture. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Agronomy, Water-use efficiency and Transpiration.

Her Rhizophoraceae study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Aegiceras corniculatum and δ13C. The Osmotic pressure study combines topics in areas such as Fruit tree and Osmoregulation. Her Ecophysiology research includes themes of Desiccation, Desiccation tolerance and Moss.

Her most cited work include:

  • MANGROVE ISOTOPIC (δ15N AND δ13C) FRACTIONATION ACROSS A NITROGEN VS. PHOSPHORUS LIMITATION GRADIENT (207 citations)
  • The role of solute accumulation, osmotic adjustment and changes in cell wall elasticity in drought tolerance in Ziziphus mauritiana (Lamk.) (167 citations)
  • Physiological and morphological adaptations of the fruit tree Ziziphus rotundifolia in response to progressive drought stress (132 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Botany, Photosynthesis, Ecology, Ecophysiology and Biochemistry. Her Botany study combines topics in areas such as Halophyte and Horticulture. Her Halophyte study deals with Dry season intersecting with Batis maritima.

Her Photosynthesis research integrates issues from Biomass and Carbon dioxide. In her study, Aechmea lingulata, Compensation point and Salinity is strongly linked to Epiphyte, which falls under the umbrella field of Ecophysiology. Her work on Avicennia, Acanthus ilicifolius and Rhizophoraceae as part of general Mangrove study is frequently linked to Heritiera littoralis, bridging the gap between disciplines.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (67.06%)
  • Photosynthesis (17.65%)
  • Ecology (15.29%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 1998-2012)?

  • Botany (67.06%)
  • Ecology (15.29%)
  • Photosynthesis (17.65%)

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

Her primary areas of study are Botany, Ecology, Photosynthesis, Nutrient and Ecophysiology. Her Botany research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Biomass and Horticulture. Her studies deal with areas such as Amino acid, Glutamine, Osmoregulation and Ammonium as well as Photosynthesis.

The concepts of her Nutrient study are interwoven with issues in Rhizophora mangle, Rhizophoraceae, Agronomy, Phosphorus and Nitrogen cycle. Her research in Agronomy tackles topics such as Transpiration which are related to areas like Stomatal conductance and Water-use efficiency. Her work in Ecophysiology addresses subjects such as Hemiepiphyte, which are connected to disciplines such as Mesembryanthemum crystallinum and Malic acid.

Between 1998 and 2012, her most popular works were:

  • MANGROVE ISOTOPIC (δ15N AND δ13C) FRACTIONATION ACROSS A NITROGEN VS. PHOSPHORUS LIMITATION GRADIENT (207 citations)
  • Physiological and morphological adaptations of the fruit tree Ziziphus rotundifolia in response to progressive drought stress (132 citations)
  • Stable isotopic composition of carbon and nitrogen and nitrogen content in vascular epiphytes along an altitudinal transect (84 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Enzyme

Her main research concerns Botany, Ecology, Stomatal conductance, Ecophysiology and δ13C. Her Botany study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Organic matter, Isotopes of nitrogen and Osmoregulation. Her Stomatal conductance research incorporates themes from Phosphorus, Water-use efficiency, Turgor pressure, Isotope analysis and Mangrove.

Her Turgor pressure study incorporates themes from Agronomy, Irrigation, Fruit tree, Osmoprotectant and Transpiration. Marianne Popp focuses mostly in the field of Ecophysiology, narrowing it down to topics relating to Desiccation tolerance and, in certain cases, Habitat. The various areas that Marianne Popp examines in her δ13C study include Rhizophora mangle, Rhizophoraceae, Nitrogen, Tropical and subtropical dry broadleaf forests and Bromeliaceae.
