Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Metabolism
  • Gene

Biochemistry, Photosynthesis, Arabidopsis thaliana, Botany and Chloroplast are his primary areas of study. His Photorespiration, Metabolism, Cytosol, Enzyme and Carbonic anhydrase investigations are all subjects of Biochemistry research. His Photosynthesis research includes themes of Carbohydrate metabolism, Mitochondrion and Hordeum vulgare.

His Arabidopsis thaliana research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Arabidopsis and Cold acclimation. His Botany study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Senescence and Gene expression. He combines subjects such as Alternative oxidase and Cell biology with his study of Chloroplast.

His most cited work include:

  • A Cellular Timetable of Autumn Senescence (276 citations)
  • Acclimation of Arabidopsis leaves developing at low temperatures. Increasing cytoplasmic volume accompanies increased activities of enzymes in the Calvin cycle and in the sucrose-biosynthesis pathway. (264 citations)
  • Gene expression in autumn leaves. (253 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, Photosynthesis, Mitochondrion, Botany and Chloroplast. His research on Biochemistry often connects related areas such as Hordeum vulgare. His Photosynthesis research incorporates elements of Cold acclimation, Cold hardening, Horticulture and Respiration.

The Mitochondrion study combines topics in areas such as Biophysics, Redox, Oxidative phosphorylation and Cytosol. His study in Botany is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Arabidopsis thaliana and Senescence. His research in Chloroplast focuses on subjects like Cell biology, which are connected to Arabidopsis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (58.57%)
  • Photosynthesis (45.00%)
  • Mitochondrion (35.71%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Biochemistry (58.57%)
  • Mitochondrion (35.71%)
  • Photosynthesis (45.00%)

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

Per Gardeström spends much of his time researching Biochemistry, Mitochondrion, Photosynthesis, Chloroplast and Senescence. His Biochemistry study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Ammonium. His work carried out in the field of Photosynthesis brings together such families of science as Redox and Oxidative phosphorylation.

His Chloroplast study combines topics in areas such as Cell biology, Adenosine triphosphate and Cytosol. His research integrates issues of Catabolism and Chlorophyll, Botany in his study of Senescence. His research in Photorespiration intersects with topics in Glycine cleavage system and Malate dehydrogenase.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The impact of light intensity on shade-induced leaf senescence. (75 citations)
  • The origin of cytosolic ATP in photosynthetic cells (47 citations)
  • Long-term ammonium nutrition of Arabidopsis increases the extrachloroplastic NAD(P)H/NAD(P)(+) ratio and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species level in leaves but does not impair photosynthetic capacity (43 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Metabolism
  • Gene

Per Gardeström focuses on Senescence, Biochemistry, Mitochondrion, Photosynthesis and Arabidopsis. His studies in Senescence integrate themes in fields like Chlorophyll and Botany. His Ammonium research extends to Biochemistry, which is thematically connected.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Chloroplast and Photophosphorylation. His Chloroplast research integrates issues from Cytosol, Oxidative phosphorylation, Adenosine triphosphate and Cell biology. His Arabidopsis study incorporates themes from Catabolism, Citric acid cycle, Metabolism, Cellular respiration and Plant senescence.
