Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Gene
  • Enzyme

His main research concerns Botany, Phytochrome, Canopy, Agronomy and Germination. The various areas that Rodolfo A. Sánchez examines in his Botany study include Shade avoidance and Horticulture. His work on Seedling and Plant stem as part of general Horticulture research is often related to Sunlight, thus linking different fields of science.

In Canopy, Rodolfo A. Sánchez works on issues like Poaceae, which are connected to Lolium multiflorum. In general Agronomy study, his work on Seed dormancy, Weed and Tiller often relates to the realm of End of day, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His work in Seed dormancy tackles topics such as Soil tillage which are related to areas like Datura ferox.

His most cited work include:

  • Far-Red Radiation Reflected from Adjacent Leaves: An Early Signal of Competition in Plant Canopies (544 citations)
  • Environmental control of dormancy in weed seed banks in soil (414 citations)
  • Early detection of neighbour plants by phytochrome perception of spectral changes in reflected sunlight (363 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Botany, Phytochrome, Germination, Horticulture and Agronomy. The concepts of his Botany study are interwoven with issues in Datura ferox and Arabidopsis. Rodolfo A. Sánchez combines subjects such as Gibberellin, Sorghum and Abscisic acid with his study of Germination.

His research in Horticulture intersects with topics in Leaf area index and Photosynthetically active radiation. His Dormancy research incorporates elements of Ecology and Caryopsis. His Seed dormancy study incorporates themes from Nothofagus and Interspecific competition.

He most often published in these fields:

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2001-2017)?

  • Germination (43.48%)
  • Botany (60.87%)
  • Dormancy (26.09%)

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

Rodolfo A. Sánchez spends much of his time researching Germination, Botany, Dormancy, Seed dormancy and Abscisic acid. His Germination research is classified as research in Agronomy. His work on Seedling as part of general Botany study is frequently linked to Phytochrome, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His Dormancy study introduces a deeper knowledge of Horticulture. His Seed dormancy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Ecology, Interspecific competition and Incubation. His Abscisic acid research integrates issues from Datura ferox, Molecular biology and Expansin, Gene expression.

Between 2001 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • Handbook of Seed Physiology : Applications to Agriculture (79 citations)
  • The Cape Verde Islands Allele of Cryptochrome 2 Enhances Cotyledon Unfolding in the Absence of Blue Light in Arabidopsis (44 citations)
  • Phytochrome Control of the Arabidopsis Transcriptome Anticipates Seedling Exposure to Light (40 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Gene
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of study are Botany, Phytochrome, Dormancy, Germination and Wild type. His work in Botany is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Arabidopsis. Among his Phytochrome studies, there is a synthesis of other scientific areas such as Genetics and Arabidopsis thaliana.

In general Dormancy, his work in Seed dormancy is often linked to Orthodox seed linking many areas of study. The subject of his Germination research is within the realm of Horticulture. The study incorporates disciplines such as Cryptochrome, Cotyledon, Photomorphogenesis and Etiolation in addition to Wild type.
