Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Bacteria

Mario Soberón mainly focuses on Bacillus thuringiensis, Toxin, Biochemistry, Microbiology and Manduca sexta. The concepts of his Bacillus thuringiensis study are interwoven with issues in Insect, Botany, Biotechnology and Mode of action. His Toxin study combines topics in areas such as Epitope, Molecular biology and Midgut.

Mario Soberón works in the field of Biochemistry, namely Receptor. His Microbiology research includes themes of Genetically modified crops, RNA interference, Signal transduction and Gene. His research integrates issues of Vesicle and Heliothis virescens in his study of Manduca sexta.

His most cited work include:

  • Mode of action of Bacillus thuringiensis Cry and Cyt toxins and their potential for insect control. (873 citations)
  • Bacillus thuringiensis: A story of a successful bioinsecticide (617 citations)
  • RNA interference in Lepidoptera: An overview of successful and unsuccessful studies and implications for experimental design (542 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Bacillus thuringiensis, Biochemistry, Toxin, Microbiology and Mutant. His Bacillus thuringiensis research incorporates elements of Molecular biology, Mode of action, Genetically modified crops, Cry1Ac and Midgut. His work on Plasma protein binding, Binding site and Proteases as part of general Biochemistry research is often related to Aminopeptidase and Hemolysin Proteins, thus linking different fields of science.

Mario Soberón has included themes like Mechanism of action, Manduca sexta, Receptor, Phage display and Aedes aegypti in his Toxin study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Insect, Genetically modified organism and Bacteria. Mario Soberón combines subjects such as Cytochrome, Biophysics and Cytochrome c with his study of Mutant.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Bacillus thuringiensis (62.44%)
  • Biochemistry (44.88%)
  • Toxin (36.10%)

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

  • Bacillus thuringiensis (62.44%)
  • Toxin (36.10%)
  • Mutant (20.00%)

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

Mario Soberón spends much of his time researching Bacillus thuringiensis, Toxin, Mutant, Biochemistry and Cry1Ac. Mario Soberón has researched Bacillus thuringiensis in several fields, including Genetically modified crops, Pore-forming toxin, Microbiology and Midgut. The various areas that Mario Soberón examines in his Toxin study include Molecular biology and Alkaline phosphatase.

His work deals with themes such as Manduca sexta, Biophysics, Brush border and Aedes aegypti, which intersect with Mutant. His study in Cry1Ac is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Proteases, Helicoverpa armigera, Gene expression and Protease. His research investigates the connection between Binding site and topics such as Receptor that intersect with problems in Downregulation and upregulation.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Engineering Bacillus thuringiensis Cyt1Aa toxin specificity from dipteran to lepidopteran toxicity. (18 citations)
  • Evaluation of the Impact of Genetically Modified Cotton After 20 Years of Cultivation in Mexico. (17 citations)
  • Characterization of the Cry1Ah resistance in Asian corn Borer and its cross-resistance to other Bacillus thuringiensis toxins. (17 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Bacteria

His scientific interests lie mostly in Bacillus thuringiensis, Biochemistry, Toxin, Cry1Ac and Binding site. His Bacillus thuringiensis research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Ostrinia furnacalis, Spodoptera litura, Mutant, Protein structure and Virulence. His Biochemistry study often links to related topics such as Chilo suppressalis.

His work carried out in the field of Toxin brings together such families of science as Molecular biology and Alkaline phosphatase. His work in Cry1Ac addresses issues such as Helicoverpa armigera, which are connected to fields such as Midgut, Membrane protein and Instar. As part of one scientific family, Mario Soberón deals mainly with the area of Binding site, narrowing it down to issues related to the Receptor, and often Blot.
