Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Botany
  • Genetics

Her main research concerns Germplasm, Solanum, Cultivar, Botany and Solanum tuberosum. Her Germplasm study combines topics in areas such as Agriculture, Domestication, Ecology and Systematics. Her Solanum research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Biodiversity and Ploidy.

Her work deals with themes such as Genetically modified crops, Plant virus and Food science, which intersect with Cultivar. Her Taxonomy study in the realm of Botany interacts with subjects such as Acrylamide. She has researched Solanum tuberosum in several fields, including Plant physiology, Genetics and Genomics.

Her most cited work include:

  • Suppression of the Vacuolar Invertase Gene Prevents Cold-Induced Sweetening in Potato (133 citations)
  • Retrospective View of North American Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) Breeding in the 20th and 21st Centuries (116 citations)
  • Retrospective View of North American Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) Breeding in the 20th and 21st Centuries (116 citations)

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

Shelley Jansky mainly investigates Botany, Germplasm, Solanum tuberosum, Cultivar and Solanum. Her studies in Botany integrate themes in fields like Plant disease resistance, Cladistics and Resistance. Her Germplasm research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Genetic diversity, Agriculture, Biotechnology, Wild species and Ploidy.

The Solanum tuberosum study combines topics in areas such as Solanum chacoense and Solanaceae. Her Cultivar study incorporates themes from Dormancy, Microsatellite and Crop. The various areas that Shelley Jansky examines in her Solanum study include PEST analysis, Colorado potato beetle, Hybrid and Genomics.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (51.52%)
  • Germplasm (51.52%)
  • Solanum tuberosum (39.39%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Germplasm (51.52%)
  • Horticulture (32.58%)
  • Ploidy (32.58%)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Germplasm, Horticulture, Ploidy, Genetics and Solanum chacoense. Her Germplasm study improves the overall literature in Botany. Her Botany research focuses on Solanum in particular.

Her Horticulture study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Growing season, Agriculture and Starch. Her Ploidy research incorporates elements of Inbred strain and Introgression. Her Solanum chacoense study combines topics in areas such as Solanum tuberosum and Transformation, Agrobacterium, Agrobacterium tumefaciens.

Between 2015 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Reinventing potato as a diploid inbred line-based crop (63 citations)
  • A common genetic mechanism underlies morphological diversity in fruits and other plant organs (57 citations)
  • Genome sequence of M6, a diploid inbred clone of the high-glycoalkaloid-producing tuber-bearing potato species Solanum chacoense, reveals residual heterozygosity. (39 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Botany
  • Genetics

Her primary areas of investigation include Genetics, Ploidy, Agronomy, Quantitative trait locus and Whole genome sequencing. Many of her research projects under Genetics are closely connected to Epigenomics with Epigenomics, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. Her Ploidy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Solanum tuberosum and Introgression.

Her Agronomy study incorporates themes from Agriculture and Botany. Her Agriculture research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Plant disease resistance and Pesticide. Her Whole genome sequencing research integrates issues from Solanum chacoense, Sanger sequencing, Genome project and Nucleosome.
