Robert B. Mitchell

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Ecology
• Agriculture
• Botany

Robert B. Mitchell mainly focuses on Agronomy, Panicum virgatum, Bioenergy, Biomass and Energy source. The various areas that Robert B. Mitchell examines in his Agronomy study include Agroforestry and Food science. His work is dedicated to discovering how Agroforestry, Forage are connected with Grazing and Growing season and other disciplines.

His Panicum virgatum research integrates issues from Crop, Sowing, Shoot, Poaceae and Seedling. His Bioenergy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Hectare and Soil carbon. His study in Biomass is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ethanol fuel, Biofuel, Cellulosic ethanol and Quadrat.

His most cited work include:

• Net energy of cellulosic ethanol from switchgrass (916 citations)
• Chemical composition and response to dilute-acid pretreatment and enzymatic saccharification of alfalfa, reed canarygrass, and switchgrass (418 citations)
• Farm-Scale Production Cost of Switchgrass for Biomass (221 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Agronomy, Panicum virgatum, Biomass, Bioenergy and Biofuel. Perennial plant, Forage, Cultivar, Andropogon and Growing season are the subjects of his Agronomy studies. In his work, Pasture and Beef cattle is strongly intertwined with Grazing, which is a subfield of Forage.

His research investigates the connection between Panicum virgatum and topics such as Ecotype that intersect with issues in Local adaptation and Quantitative trait locus. His studies deal with areas such as Ethanol fuel, Lignin, Crop yield and Plant ecology as well as Biomass. His Bioenergy research includes elements of Agroforestry, Raw material, Cellulosic ethanol and Agriculture.

He most often published in these fields:

• Agronomy (71.60%)
• Panicum virgatum (42.60%)
• Biomass (31.36%)

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

• Agronomy (71.60%)
• Panicum virgatum (42.60%)
• Biomass (31.36%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Agronomy, Panicum virgatum, Biomass, Bioenergy and Ecotype. His studies in Agronomy integrate themes in fields like Surface runoff, Biomass yield and Genetic architecture. His Panicum virgatum research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Cultivar, Andropogon, Cropping, Bouteloua curtipendula and Adaptation.

His Biomass research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Dry matter, Animal science, Productivity, Biofuel and Forage. His research in Bioenergy intersects with topics in Perennial plant, Agroforestry and Monoculture. His Ecotype study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Photosynthesis, Chlorophyll, Growing season, Quantitative trait locus and Local adaptation.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• Biomass production of herbaceous energy crops in the United States: field trial results and yield potential maps from the multiyear regional feedstock partnership (28 citations)
• QTL × environment interactions underlie adaptive divergence in switchgrass across a large latitudinal gradient. (27 citations)
• Isolation and analysis of microbial communities in soil, rhizosphere, and roots in perennial grass experiments (25 citations)

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

• Ecology
• Agriculture
• Botany

His main research concerns Agronomy, Panicum virgatum, Bioenergy, Biomass and Ecotype. Robert B. Mitchell combines subjects such as Partial least squares regression and Heritability with his study of Agronomy. The study incorporates disciplines such as Adaptation, Andropogon and Biomass to liquid in addition to Panicum virgatum.

His research in the fields of Miscanthus and Energy crop overlaps with other disciplines such as Biochar. His Biomass study incorporates themes from Perennial plant, Monoculture, Weed, Soil conditioner and Productivity. His work deals with themes such as Quantitative trait locus and Local adaptation, which intersect with Ecotype.
