Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Horticulture
  • Agronomy

Horticulture, Pollen, Anthesis, Cultivar and Botany are his primary areas of study. His study brings together the fields of Agronomy and Horticulture. When carried out as part of a general Agronomy research project, his work on Sorghum and Horticultural crops is frequently linked to work in Water reservoir, Water transport and Sugar cane, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

His research in Pollen is mostly concerned with Stamen. The concepts of his Anthesis study are interwoven with issues in Habit and Crop. His Cultivar research includes themes of Photosynthesis, Inflorescence and Growing season.

His most cited work include:

  • The Effect of Heat Stress on Tomato Pollen Characteristics is Associated with Changes in Carbohydrate Concentration in the Developing Anthers (232 citations)
  • Physiological factors limit fruit set of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) under chronic, mild heat stress (214 citations)
  • Comparing heat stress effects on male‐fertile and male‐sterile tomatoes (203 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Horticulture, Agronomy, Greenhouse, Botany and Cultivar. His research integrates issues of Fruit set and Pollen in his study of Horticulture. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Anthesis and Germination.

Mary M. Peet has included themes like Waste management, Environmental engineering and Drip irrigation in his Greenhouse study. His work on Photosynthesis and Acclimatization as part of general Botany research is frequently linked to Irradiance and Liter, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. His Cultivar study combines topics in areas such as Crop yield and Yield.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Horticulture (47.13%)
  • Agronomy (43.68%)
  • Greenhouse (29.89%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2000-2018)?

  • Agronomy (43.68%)
  • Horticulture (47.13%)
  • Greenhouse (29.89%)

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

Mary M. Peet mainly investigates Agronomy, Horticulture, Greenhouse, Cultivar and Lycopersicon. Mary M. Peet focuses mostly in the field of Agronomy, narrowing it down to topics relating to Solanum and, in certain cases, Rootstock and Heirloom plant. His Horticulture research integrates issues from Pollen and Human fertilization.

His Greenhouse research includes elements of Waste management, Environmental restoration and Agroforestry. His Cultivar research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Hydroponics, Crop yield and Hydroponic culture. Mary M. Peet conducts interdisciplinary study in the fields of Lycopersicon and Solanaceae through his research.

Between 2000 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • The Effect of Heat Stress on Tomato Pollen Characteristics is Associated with Changes in Carbohydrate Concentration in the Developing Anthers (232 citations)
  • Determining critical pre- and post-anthesis periods and physiological processes in Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. exposed to moderately elevated temperatures (160 citations)
  • Pollen grains of heat tolerant tomato cultivars retain higher carbohydrate concentration under heat stress conditions (127 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Horticulture
  • Agronomy

His scientific interests lie mostly in Horticulture, Agronomy, Solanaceae, Lycopersicon and Cultivar. His Horticulture study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Pollen and Botany. His work on Pollen count and Germination as part of his general Botany study is frequently connected to Invertase, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.

His study in the field of Greenhouse is also linked to topics like Organic farming and Environmental impact of agriculture. His work deals with themes such as Fertilizer, Compost, Drip irrigation and Poultry litter, which intersect with Greenhouse. The Cultivar study which covers Crop yield that intersects with Cultural methods, Irrigation and Hydroponics.
