Pedro J. Aphalo

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Botany
• Ecology
• Photosynthesis

Pedro J. Aphalo mainly investigates Botany, Betula pendula, Secondary metabolism, Horticulture and Chlorogenic acid. His study in Botany is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Nutrient, Proanthocyanidin and Flavonols. His Nutrient study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Growing season and Betulaceae.

His Betula pendula research includes elements of Quercitrin and Uv b radiation. His research in Horticulture is mostly focused on Petiole. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Far-red, Plant morphology, Cinnamic acid and Phytochrome.

His most cited work include:

• Do stomata respond to relative humidity (192 citations)
• On the importance of information-acquiring systems in plant-plant interactions (162 citations)
• Multiple Roles for UV RESISTANCE LOCUS8 in Regulating Gene Expression and Metabolite Accumulation in Arabidopsis under Solar Ultraviolet Radiation (132 citations)

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

Pedro J. Aphalo mainly focuses on Botany, Horticulture, Betula pendula, Nutrient and Shoot. His work in the fields of Growing season, Stomatal conductance and Betulaceae overlaps with other areas such as Scots pine and Mycorrhiza. His research investigates the connection with Horticulture and areas like Photosynthesis which intersect with concerns in Biophysics.

His Betula pendula study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Uv b radiation. Pedro J. Aphalo focuses mostly in the field of Nutrient, narrowing it down to topics relating to Animal science and, in certain cases, Litter. His Shoot study deals with Picea abies intersecting with Biomass, Humus and Agronomy.

He most often published in these fields:

• Botany (62.96%)
• Horticulture (28.15%)
• Betula pendula (19.26%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

• Sunlight (8.89%)
• Biophysics (5.19%)
• UVR8 (5.19%)

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

Pedro J. Aphalo focuses on Sunlight, Biophysics, UVR8, Mutant and Horticulture. His Biophysics research focuses on Phototropin and how it relates to Photosynthesis, Photosystem II and Chlorophyll fluorescence. Pedro J. Aphalo has researched UVR8 in several fields, including Plant production and Blue light.

His studies in Horticulture integrate themes in fields like Acclimatization and Nutrient. His Shoot research integrates issues from Soil temperature, Stomatal conductance, Plant physiology and Alnus incana, Alder. The concepts of his Ultraviolet study are interwoven with issues in Kaempferol and Botany.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• A perspective on ecologically relevant plant-UV research and its practical application (20 citations)
• How do cryptochromes and UVR8 interact in natural and simulated sunlight (19 citations)
• Do UV‐A radiation and blue light during growth prime leaves to cope with acute high light in photoreceptor mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana? (16 citations)

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

• Botany
• Ecology
• Photosynthesis

His primary scientific interests are in UVR8, Biophysics, Mutant, Sunlight and Photosynthesis. His UVR8 research includes themes of Blue light and Spectral composition. Pedro J. Aphalo combines subjects such as Wavelength, Plant species and Plant production with his study of Blue light.

His Sunlight research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Signal transduction, Gene expression and Arabidopsis, Photomorphogenesis. His work carried out in the field of Photosynthesis brings together such families of science as Phototropin and Evergreen. His Photosynthetic capacity research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Growing season, Photoprotection, Photoinhibition, Flavonols and Vaccinium.
