Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Biochemistry
  • Enzyme

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Botany, Agronomy, Shoot, Flooding and Aerenchyma formation. The Botany study combines topics in areas such as Rumex palustris and Horticulture. His Hordeum vulgare study in the realm of Agronomy interacts with subjects such as Locus.

Michael B. Jackson interconnects Hormone and Transpiration stream, Transpiration in the investigation of issues within Shoot. The concepts of his Flooding study are interwoven with issues in Adaptation, Ecology, Ecosystem, Vegetation and Marsh. His Aerenchyma formation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Apoptosis, TUNEL assay and Carbon dioxide.

His most cited work include:

  • The Use and Misuse of FTIR Spectroscopy in the Determination of Protein Structure (1340 citations)
  • Plant adaptations to anaerobic stress (664 citations)
  • Formation of Aerenchyma and the Processes of Plant Ventilation in Relation to Soil Flooding and Submergence (558 citations)

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

Michael B. Jackson mostly deals with Botany, Shoot, Infrared spectroscopy, Agronomy and Abscisic acid. His work on Aerenchyma as part of general Botany research is frequently linked to Anaerobic exercise, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. Michael B. Jackson focuses mostly in the field of Shoot, narrowing it down to topics relating to Xylem and, in certain cases, Savia.

His Infrared spectroscopy study incorporates themes from Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Infrared, Protein secondary structure and Pathology. His Agronomy study deals with Flooding intersecting with Ecology. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Oxygen, narrowing it down to issues related to the Poaceae, and often Seedling.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (35.05%)
  • Shoot (23.71%)
  • Infrared spectroscopy (17.53%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2003-2019)?

  • Perfusion (4.12%)
  • Flooding (6.19%)
  • Botany (35.05%)

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

Michael B. Jackson mainly focuses on Perfusion, Flooding, Botany, Ecology and Internal medicine. His work carried out in the field of Perfusion brings together such families of science as Anesthesia and Blood flow. The concepts of his Flooding study are interwoven with issues in Adaptation and Chlorophyll a.

His Botany research includes themes of Lipid peroxidation and Oxygen. His Ecology research incorporates elements of Rumex palustris and Plant physiology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Extracellular and Cardiology in addition to Internal medicine.

Between 2003 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Response and adaptation by plants to flooding stress. (333 citations)
  • Ethylene-promoted Elongation: an Adaptation to Submergence Stress (193 citations)
  • Root signals and stomatal closure in relation to photosynthesis, chlorophyll a fluorescence and adventitious rooting of flooded tomato plants. (94 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Biochemistry
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of study are Botany, Ecology, Diffusion, Culture vessel and Aeration. His Botany study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Lipid peroxidation and Oxygen. His study in the field of Oxygen deficient also crosses realms of Economic shortage.

His work on Adaptation, Ecosystem and Fern as part of general Ecology study is frequently connected to Stress adaptation, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them. Michael B. Jackson has researched Adaptation in several fields, including Range, Ecology and Wetland. His Ecosystem research integrates issues from Habitat and Abiotic component.
