Mark E. Westgate

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Ecology
• Agronomy
• Agriculture

Mark E. Westgate mostly deals with Agronomy, Water content, Pollination, Pollen and Zea mays. His Agronomy research integrates issues from Competition and Topsoil. His research in Water content intersects with topics in Soil classification, Soil water, Dry matter and Sink.

His study in Anthesis extends to Pollen with its themes. His study in Anthesis is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Endosperm, Tassel, Limiting factor, Sterility and Grain yield. Mark E. Westgate interconnects Crop simulation model, Growing degree-day, Cultivar and Canopy in the investigation of issues within Zea mays.

His most cited work include:

• Reproductive Development in Grain Crops during Drought (437 citations)
• Assessing potential of biochar for increasing water‐holding capacity of sandy soils (253 citations)
• Quantification of Compartmented Metabolic Fluxes in Developing Soybean Embryos by Employing Biosynthetically Directed Fractional 13C Labeling, Two-Dimensional [13C, 1H] Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, and Comprehensive Isotopomer Balancing (149 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Pollen, Horticulture, Sowing and Hybrid. His studies in Agronomy integrate themes in fields like Canopy, Kernel and Water content. His work in Water content tackles topics such as Sink which are related to areas like Dry weight and Dry matter.

Many of his research projects under Pollen are closely connected to Pollen source with Pollen source, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His work carried out in the field of Hybrid brings together such families of science as Anthesis and Tassel. His research investigates the connection with Anthesis and areas like Endosperm which intersect with concerns in Sterility, Fertility and Plant density.

He most often published in these fields:

• Agronomy (66.67%)
• Pollen (25.00%)
• Horticulture (18.33%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

• Agronomy (66.67%)
• Pollen (25.00%)
• Germplasm (6.67%)

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

His main research concerns Agronomy, Pollen, Germplasm, Computational biology and Nitrogen fixation. The Yield research Mark E. Westgate does as part of his general Agronomy study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Business, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His study of Pollen brings together topics like Boundary layer, Dynamics, Materials science, Dispersion and Chemical physics.

His Germplasm research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sorghum, Plant breeding, Stomatal conductance, Genetic variation and Transpiration. His Computational biology research covers fields of interest such as Genomic selection, Dimension, Genetic association, Gene–environment interaction and Trait. In his works, he performs multidisciplinary study on Nitrogen fixation and Yield.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• Assessing potential of biochar for increasing water‐holding capacity of sandy soils (253 citations)
• A systems biology approach toward understanding seed composition in soybean (37 citations)
• Genetic analysis and phenotypic characterization of leaf photosynthetic capacity in a sorghum ( Sorghum spp.) diversity panel (8 citations)

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

• Ecology
• Agriculture
• Agronomy

Mark E. Westgate mainly focuses on Agronomy, Transpiration, Photosynthesis, Germplasm and Photosynthetic capacity. With his scientific publications, his incorporates both Agronomy and Biochar. His research in Transpiration intersects with topics in Plant breeding, Sorghum, Genetic variation and Stomatal conductance.
