What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Botany
- Ecology
- Photosynthesis
Michael C. F. Proctor mostly deals with Botany, Photosynthesis, Desiccation, Bryophyte and Desiccation tolerance.
When carried out as part of a general Botany research project, his work on Pollinator is frequently linked to work in Water content, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.
His studies in Photosynthesis integrate themes in fields like Chlorophyll and Respiration.
Particularly relevant to Poikilohydry is his body of work in Desiccation.
Michael C. F. Proctor has included themes like Mesophyte, Turgor pressure, Dry weight, Chlorophyll a and Plant ecology in his Bryophyte study.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Honey Bees, Pollination, Buzz pollination, Pollination management and Foraging in addition to Horticulture.
His most cited work include:
- The pollination of flowers (583 citations)
- Ecological gradients, subdivisions and terminology of north‐west European mires (348 citations)
- Desiccation-tolerance in bryophytes: a review (290 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary areas of investigation include Botany, Desiccation, Ecology, Photosynthesis and Chlorophyll fluorescence.
His Botany research focuses on Horticulture and how it connects with Pollination and Buzz pollination.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Canopy, Grimmia pulvinata and Respiration.
His work in Ecology tackles topics such as Thallus which are related to areas like Buellia and Morphology.
Michael C. F. Proctor usually deals with Photosynthesis and limits it to topics linked to Chlorophyll a and Carotenoid and Chlorophyll c.
His Chlorophyll fluorescence research includes elements of Photochemistry, Photoprotection and Photosynthetic pigment.
He most often published in these fields:
- Botany (66.18%)
- Desiccation (36.76%)
- Ecology (29.41%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2003-2018)?
- Botany (66.18%)
- Chlorophyll fluorescence (26.47%)
- Desiccation (36.76%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Michael C. F. Proctor mainly focuses on Botany, Chlorophyll fluorescence, Desiccation, Ecology and Photosynthesis.
His Botany research integrates issues from Halophyte and Salinity.
The concepts of his Chlorophyll fluorescence study are interwoven with issues in Photochemistry, Photoprotection and Photosynthetic efficiency.
His Desiccation research focuses on Desiccation tolerance in particular.
In the field of Desiccation tolerance, his study on Poikilohydry overlaps with subjects such as Thylakoid.
His work on Ombrotrophic, Bog and Bioindicator as part of general Ecology study is frequently linked to Biological evolution, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.
Between 2003 and 2018, his most popular works were:
- Desiccation-tolerance in bryophytes: a review (290 citations)
- Are Bryophytes Shade Plants? Photosynthetic Light Responses and Proportions of Chlorophyll a, Chlorophyll b and Total Carotenoids (198 citations)
- Desiccation Tolerance in the Moss Polytrichum formosum: Physiological and Fine-structural Changes during Desiccation and Recovery (128 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
- Botany
- Ecology
- Photosynthesis
Botany, Photosynthesis, Desiccation tolerance, Desiccation and Chlorophyll fluorescence are his primary areas of study.
His work on Chlorophyll and Polytrichaceae as part of general Botany study is frequently linked to Pogonatum and Saturation, bridging the gap between disciplines.
Michael C. F. Proctor combines subjects such as Bryophyte, Carotenoid and Chlorophyll a with his study of Photosynthesis.
His work carried out in the field of Desiccation tolerance brings together such families of science as Sporophyte, Phenotypic plasticity, Gametophyte and Respiration.
His Desiccation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Canopy, Microclimate and Seasonality.
His research in Poikilohydry intersects with topics in Trichomanes, Hymenophyllum, Hymenophyllaceae, Fern and Species diversity.
