Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Botany
  • Ecology

His primary areas of study are Botany, Shoot, Selenium, Biofortification and Agronomy. His studies in Botany integrate themes in fields like Phylogenetic tree, Zinc, Hyperaccumulator, Thlaspi caerulescens and Phylogenetics. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Poales, Brassica oleracea, Genetic variation and Cultivar.

His study on Selenate is often connected to Placebo-controlled study as part of broader study in Selenium. His research integrates issues of Human nutrition, Food science, Crop, Mineralogy and Food fortification in his study of Biofortification. His study in Agronomy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Transcript profiling, Soil water, Abiotic stress and Function.

His most cited work include:

  • Calcium in Plants (1290 citations)
  • Zinc in plants (1169 citations)
  • Biofortification of crops with seven mineral elements often lacking in human diets--iron, zinc, copper, calcium, magnesium, selenium and iodine. (1116 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Agronomy, Botany, Biofortification, Selenium and Shoot. His Agronomy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Zinc and Soil water. His Botany study incorporates themes from Arabidopsis thaliana, Ionomics, Nutrient, Arabidopsis and Genetic variation.

His Biofortification study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Phytic acid and Food science. His research on Selenium often connects related topics like Environmental health. The subject of his Shoot research is within the realm of Horticulture.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (33.18%)
  • Botany (22.27%)
  • Biofortification (18.18%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Biofortification (18.18%)
  • Agronomy (33.18%)
  • Selenium (17.73%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Biofortification, Agronomy, Selenium, Zinc and Horticulture. Martin R. Broadley interconnects Phytic acid, Randomized controlled trial, Crop and Environmental health in the investigation of issues within Biofortification. His work carried out in the field of Agronomy brings together such families of science as Soil type and Soil water.

The Selenate research Martin R. Broadley does as part of his general Selenium study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Tree, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. In his study, Grain quality and Shoot is inextricably linked to Vigna, which falls within the broad field of Zinc. Brassica is the subject of his research, which falls under Botany.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • TRY plant trait database : Enhanced coverage and open access (179 citations)
  • The risk of selenium deficiency in Malawi is large and varies over multiple spatial scales (26 citations)
  • Fertilizer management and soil type influence grain zinc and iron concentration under contrasting smallholder cropping systems in Zimbabwe. (18 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Ecology
  • Botany

Martin R. Broadley mainly investigates Biofortification, Selenium, Environmental health, Selenium deficiency and Agronomy. His Biofortification research includes themes of Zinc deficiency, Randomized controlled trial and Disease burden. Martin R. Broadley does research in Selenium, focusing on Selenate specifically.

His work focuses on many connections between Selenate and other disciplines, such as Nutrient, that overlap with his field of interest in Soil water. Martin R. Broadley has included themes like Animal source foods, Malnutrition, Serum zinc and Food systems in his Environmental health study. His research on Agronomy frequently links to adjacent areas such as Zinc.
