Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Botany
  • Gene

His scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, Botany, Hordeum vulgare, Apoplast and Zinc. Søren Husted interconnects Manganese, Shoot and Nuclear chemistry in the investigation of issues within Biochemistry. His work on Ecophysiology, Cucumis and Canopy as part of general Botany research is frequently linked to Relative humidity, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science.

In his work, Diffusive gradients in thin films, Soil classification, Soil water and Soil test is strongly intertwined with Nutrient, which is a subfield of Hordeum vulgare. Søren Husted undertakes multidisciplinary investigations into Apoplast and Ammonium in his work. Søren Husted combines subjects such as Nicotianamine, Nicotianamine synthase, Phosphorus and Chromosomal translocation with his study of Zinc.

His most cited work include:

  • Iron fortification of rice seeds through activation of the nicotianamine synthase gene (234 citations)
  • The chemical buffer system in raw and digested animal slurry (197 citations)
  • Seasonal variation in methane emission from stored slurry and solid manures (190 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Botany, Hordeum vulgare, Biochemistry, Environmental chemistry and Manganese. His study in Apoplast and Brassica is carried out as part of his Botany studies. His Hordeum vulgare study incorporates themes from Biophysics, Phosphorus, Horticulture and Plant physiology.

His research in Biochemistry intersects with topics in Zinc and Nuclear chemistry. In his research, Nutrient is intimately related to Soil water, which falls under the overarching field of Environmental chemistry.
