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

  • Botany
  • Enzyme
  • Ecology

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Rauvolfia serpentina, Botany, Antioxidant, Ascorbic acid and Panicum sumatrense. His research on Botany often connects related topics like Horticulture. His Antioxidant research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Panicum, Enzyme assay and Food science.

Ascorbic acid overlaps with fields such as Triadimefon, Fungicide and Anthocyanin in his research. Rajaram Panneerselvam interconnects Proline, Superoxide dismutase, Catalase, Abiotic component and Drought tolerance in the investigation of issues within Panicum sumatrense. His work carried out in the field of Catalase brings together such families of science as Osmoprotectant, Chlorophyll and Agronomy.
