Paloma Melgarejo

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

• Botany
• Gene
• Fungus

Her primary areas of study are Botany, Monilinia laxa, Conidium, Monilinia and Horticulture. Her Botany study focuses mostly on Biological pest control and Spore. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Growing season, Crop season and Mycelium.

Her work in Conidium covers topics such as Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici which are related to areas like Freeze-drying, Spray drying, Skimmed milk, Lycopersicon and Plant disease resistance. Her studies deal with areas such as Epicoccum nigrum, Monilinia fructicola and Orchard as well as Monilinia. Her Epicoccum nigrum research incorporates elements of Agronomy and Postharvest.

Her most cited work include:

• Biological control of postharvest brown rot (Monilinia spp.) of peaches by field applications of Epicoccum nigrum (137 citations)
• High chlorogenic and neochlorogenic acid levels in immature peaches reduce Monilinia laxa infection by interfering with fungal melanin biosynthesis (83 citations)
• Chemical Alternatives to Methyl Bromide in Spanish Strawberry Nurseries. (65 citations)

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

Paloma Melgarejo mostly deals with Horticulture, Botany, Conidium, Monilinia laxa and Biological pest control. Paloma Melgarejo usually deals with Horticulture and limits it to topics linked to Agronomy and Fragaria. Her study on Epicoccum nigrum, Penicillium and Germ tube is often connected to Potato dextrose agar and Adhesion as part of broader study in Botany.

Paloma Melgarejo has included themes like Inoculation, Germination, Skimmed milk, Glycerol and Fusarium oxysporum in her Conidium study. Her Monilinia laxa study also includes

• Mycelium which is related to area like Melanin,
• Microbiology together with Polymerase chain reaction. Her work in Biological pest control tackles topics such as Penicillium oxalicum which are related to areas like Identification.

She most often published in these fields:

• Horticulture (50.42%)
• Botany (42.86%)
• Conidium (35.29%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

• Horticulture (50.42%)
• Biological pest control (25.21%)
• Monilinia laxa (31.09%)

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

Paloma Melgarejo mainly focuses on Horticulture, Biological pest control, Monilinia laxa, Monilinia and Monilinia fructicola. Her Dazomet, Metam sodium and Chloropicrin study in the realm of Horticulture connects with subjects such as Significant positive correlation and Climatic variables. Her Monilinia laxa study combines topics in areas such as Secretion and Orchard.

Her Monilinia study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Food science, Pulmonary surfactant, Conidium, Gelatin and Postharvest. Monilinia fructicola is a subfield of Botany that Paloma Melgarejo investigates. The Ochratoxin A research Paloma Melgarejo does as part of her general Botany study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Biological product, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

• Fruit maturity and post-harvest environmental conditions influence the pre-penetration stages of Monilinia infections in peaches. (11 citations)
• Competition is the mechanism of biocontrol of brown rot in stone fruit by Penicillium frequentans (10 citations)
• Adaptive conditions and safety of the application of Penicillium frequentans as a biocontrol agent on stone fruit. (9 citations)

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

• Botany
• Gene
• Fungus

Conidium, Germination, Horticulture, Botany and Monilinia are her primary areas of study. Paloma Melgarejo combines subjects such as Dazomet, Root rot, Metam sodium, Chloropicrin and Fusarium solani with her study of Conidium. Her Germination research includes elements of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, Fungicide, Biological pest control and Pest control.

Her Horticulture study incorporates themes from Pesticide, Penicillium and Emerging pathogen. Paloma Melgarejo integrates Botany with Biological product in her research. Her research investigates the connection between Monilinia and topics such as Cutin that intersect with issues in Monilinia fructicola and Pectin.
