Overview

Mulualem Tigabu is affiliated with the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences in Sweden. Their research primarily spans the fields of Agricultural and Biological Sciences and Environmental Science, with a focus on several subfields such as Plant Science, Global and Planetary Change, Nature and Landscape Conservation, Molecular Biology, and Soil Science.

The main topics addressed in their work include:

  • Fire effects on ecosystems
  • Forest ecology and management
  • Soil Carbon and Nitrogen Dynamics
  • Plant nutrient uptake and metabolism
  • Plant responses to elevated CO2
  • Plant Water Relations and Carbon Dynamics
  • Plant Gene Expression Analysis

Their recent publications highlight diverse aspects of forest and plant sciences. Selected papers include:

  • "Molecular and Metabolic Insights into Anthocyanin Biosynthesis for Leaf Color Change in Chokecherry (Padus virginiana)", 2021, International Journal of Molecular Sciences
  • "Responses of leaf morphology, NSCs contents and C:N:P stoichiometry of Cunninghamia lanceolata and Schima superba to shading", 2020, BMC Plant Biology
  • "Emission of atmospheric pollutants during forest fire in boreal region of China", 2020, Environmental Pollution
  • "Genetic Improvement of Pinus koraiensis in China: Current Situation and Future Prospects", 2020, Forests
  • "Comparative transcriptomic analysis reveals the coordinated mechanisms of Populus × canadensis 'Neva' leaves in response to cadmium stress", 2021, Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety

The venues where this researcher frequently publishes include:

  • Forests
  • Journal of Forestry Research
  • BMC Plant Biology
  • Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
  • Forest Ecology and Management

Mulualem Tigabu collaborates regularly with several coauthors, most notably:
