Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Gene
  • Ecology

Matthew A. Jenks mainly focuses on Arabidopsis, Cuticle, Wax, Botany and Plant cuticle. His Arabidopsis study introduces a deeper knowledge of Biochemistry. His Cuticle research includes elements of Middle lamella, Pleiotropy, Turgor pressure, Horticulture and Cutin.

His Wax study incorporates themes from Cell wall, Abscisic acid and Agronomy. His studies link Thellungiella with Botany. His Plant cuticle research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Cultivar, Sodium and Plant physiology.

His most cited work include:

  • Salt Cress. A Halophyte and Cryophyte Arabidopsis Relative Model System and Its Applicability to Molecular Genetic Analyses of Growth and Development of Extremophiles (386 citations)
  • Field-based phenomics for plant genetics research (368 citations)
  • The impact of water deficiency on leaf cuticle lipids of Arabidopsis. (332 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Botany, Wax, Cuticle, Mutant and Cutin. Matthew A. Jenks has included themes like Epicuticular wax and Horticulture in his Botany study. His Wax study also includes

  • Drought tolerance which is related to area like Irrigation,
  • Silique which connect with Inflorescence.

Specifically, his work in Cuticle is concerned with the study of Plant cuticle. His Mutant research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Mutation and Sorghum. His work deals with themes such as Chlorophyll, Metabolism and Lipid biosynthesis, which intersect with Cutin.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (52.68%)
  • Wax (40.18%)
  • Cuticle (29.46%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2020)?

  • Wax (40.18%)
  • Botany (52.68%)
  • Cutin (19.64%)

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

Wax, Botany, Cutin, Agronomy and Cuticle are his primary areas of study. His study in Wax is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Composition, Arabidopsis, Mutant, Gene and Horticulture. In general Arabidopsis, his work in Fatty acid elongase complex is often linked to Very long chain fatty acid linking many areas of study.

His Botany study typically links adjacent topics like Fatty acid elongation. Matthew A. Jenks combines subjects such as Drought tolerance, Molecular breeding, Trichome and Plant cuticle with his study of Cutin. Within one scientific family, Matthew A. Jenks focuses on topics pertaining to Inflorescence under Cuticle, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Silique, Metabolic pathway, Thellungiella and Gene expression.

Between 2016 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • The Acyl Desaturase CER17 Is Involved in Producing Wax Unsaturated Primary Alcohols and Cutin Monomers (21 citations)
  • Characterization of leaf cuticular waxes and cutin monomers of Camelina sativa and closely-related Camelina species (11 citations)
  • A century of guayule: Comprehensive genetic characterization of the US national guayule (Parthenium argentatum A. Gray) germplasm collection (10 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Gene
  • Ecology

His primary areas of investigation include Botany, Wax, Cutin, Cuticle and Genetic marker. His studies deal with areas such as Camelina, Irrigation, Monobasic acid, Polyunsaturated fatty acid and Camelina sativa as well as Botany. His Wax study is concerned with Biochemistry in general.

His Cutin research includes themes of Ultrastructure, Arabidopsis, Mutant and Drought tolerance. Matthew A. Jenks interconnects Agronomy, Crop, Plant breeding, Ripening and Pepper in the investigation of issues within Cuticle. The concepts of his Genetic marker study are interwoven with issues in Germplasm, Hybrid, Genetic diversity and Introgression.
