Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Botany, Cultivar, Ascorbic acid and Photosynthesis. His biological study deals with issues like Biomass, which deal with fields such as Oryza sativa. His Botany research incorporates elements of Food science, Jasmonic acid, Nitrite reductase, Nitrate reductase and Nitrogenase.

His work in Cultivar addresses issues such as Poaceae, which are connected to fields such as Sugar, Test weight, Yield and Plant ecology. His research integrates issues of Vigna, Anthocyanin, Horticulture and Nutrient in his study of Photosynthesis. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Stomatal conductance, Tropospheric ozone is strongly linked to Pollutant.

His most cited work include:

  • Environmental pollution and plant responses (189 citations)
  • Changes in oxidative stress defense system in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and mung bean (Vigna radiata L.) cultivars grown with and without mineral nutrients and irradiated by supplemental ultraviolet-B (121 citations)
  • Assessment of yield losses in tropical wheat using open top chambers (83 citations)

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

Shashi Bhushan Agrawal spends much of his time researching Agronomy, Horticulture, Cultivar, Photosynthesis and Botany. The concepts of his Agronomy study are interwoven with issues in Biomass and Nutrient. Shashi Bhushan Agrawal incorporates Horticulture and Ascorbic acid in his studies.

His Cultivar study also includes fields such as

  • Ozone and related Pollutant,
  • Poaceae which is related to area like Oryza sativa. His study looks at the intersection of Photosynthesis and topics like Vigna with Tropics. His Botany research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Food science, Sulfur, Lipid peroxidation, Air pollution and Nitrogenase.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (33.33%)
  • Horticulture (30.51%)
  • Cultivar (28.81%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Horticulture (30.51%)
  • Cultivar (28.81%)
  • Ascorbic acid (17.51%)

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

His primary areas of study are Horticulture, Cultivar, Ascorbic acid, Photosynthesis and Ozone. As a part of the same scientific study, Shashi Bhushan Agrawal usually deals with the Horticulture, concentrating on Pollutant and frequently concerns with Air pollution, Environmental chemistry, Crop, Helianthus annuus and Medicinal plants. His Cultivar study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Nutrient, Starch, Sowing, Biomass and Yield.

The Photosynthesis study combines topics in areas such as Superoxide dismutase and Chlorophyll. His work on Tropospheric ozone as part of general Ozone research is often related to Potential biomarkers, thus linking different fields of science. His work carried out in the field of Water-use efficiency brings together such families of science as Tropics and Agronomy.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Defense potential of secondary metabolites in medicinal plants under UV-B stress (37 citations)
  • ROS production and its detoxification in early and late sown cultivars of wheat under future O3 concentration. (19 citations)
  • Ascorbic acid and thiols as potential biomarkers of ozone tolerance in tropical wheat cultivars. (10 citations)
