Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Agronomy
  • Botany
  • Cultivar

Roxana Savin focuses on Agronomy, Anthesis, Cultivar, Grain growth and Poaceae. Her Agronomy research focuses on Dry weight, Grain weight, Biomass, Yield and Hordeum vulgare. Her Biomass study combines topics in areas such as Growing season and Human fertilization.

Her study in Hordeum vulgare is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Photosynthesis and Canopy. Roxana Savin combines subjects such as Field conditions, Grain filling, Animal science and Sowing with her study of Anthesis. Her research integrates issues of Grain yield and Ecophysiology in her study of Field conditions.

Her most cited work include:

  • Effects of Short Periods of Drought and High Temperature on Grain Growth and Starch Accumulation of Two Malting Barley Cultivars (202 citations)
  • Coarse and fine regulation of wheat yield components in response to genotype and environment (187 citations)
  • Source—sink relationships and grain mass at different positions within the spike in wheat (187 citations)

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

Roxana Savin mostly deals with Agronomy, Anthesis, Cultivar, Hordeum vulgare and Crop. Roxana Savin performs multidisciplinary study in Agronomy and Yield in her work. The concepts of her Anthesis study are interwoven with issues in Dry weight, photoperiodism and Animal science.

Her research on Cultivar also deals with topics like

  • Sowing and related Fructification,
  • Gene–environment interaction that connect with fields like Biotechnology. Her Hordeum vulgare research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Water use, Grain quality, Plant nutrition and Water-use efficiency. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cropping, Hybrid and Phenology.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (75.51%)
  • Anthesis (45.92%)
  • Cultivar (29.59%)

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

  • Anthesis (45.92%)
  • Agronomy (75.51%)
  • Horticulture (16.33%)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Anthesis, Agronomy, Horticulture, Allele and photoperiodism. Anthesis is the subject of her research, which falls under Cultivar. Her Cultivar study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as High nitrogen and Genetic variation.

Her work on Crop yield, Grain number and Grain filling is typically connected to Source sink and Yield as part of general Agronomy study, connecting several disciplines of science. Her Allele study deals with Field conditions intersecting with Flowering time and Chromosome. Her biological study deals with issues like Yield, which deal with fields such as Grain yield.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Dynamics of floret initiation/death determining spike fertility in wheat as affected by Ppd genes under field conditions. (26 citations)
  • Dynamics of leaf and spikelet primordia initiation in wheat as affected by Ppd-1a alleles under field conditions. (26 citations)
  • Yield and grain weight responses to post-anthesis increases in maximum temperature under field grown wheat as modified by nitrogen supply (22 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Agronomy
  • Horticulture

Agronomy, Allele, Horticulture, Anthesis and Primordium are her primary areas of study. She studies Agronomy, namely Grain yield. As a part of the same scientific family, Roxana Savin mostly works in the field of Allele, focusing on Field conditions and, on occasion, Chromosome, Leaf number, Plastochron and Growing season.

Her Anthesis study is concerned with Cultivar in general. In the subject of general Cultivar, her work in Grain weight is often linked to Maximum temperature, Grain growth and Simulation modeling, thereby combining diverse domains of study. Roxana Savin works mostly in the field of Fertility, limiting it down to topics relating to photoperiodism and, in certain cases, Genotype, Introgression, High nitrogen and Yield, as a part of the same area of interest.
