Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Botany
  • Bacteria

His primary areas of investigation include Botany, Rhizosphere, Biochemistry, Nutrient and Iron deficiency. His Botany research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Horticulture and Mineralization. His work carried out in the field of Rhizosphere brings together such families of science as Soil biology, Soil water, Exudate, Flavonoid and Siderophore.

In Siderophore, he works on issues like Rhizobacteria, which are connected to Nutrient bioavailability. His work investigates the relationship between Nutrient and topics such as Plant physiology that intersect with problems in Plant nutrition. His Iron deficiency study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Microarray analysis techniques, Transcriptome, Gene expression profiling and Root hair.

His most cited work include:

  • Microbial interactions in the rhizosphere: beneficial influences of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria on nutrient acquisition process. A review (341 citations)
  • Review on iron availability in soil: interaction of Fe minerals, plants, and microbes (221 citations)
  • Release of plant-borne flavonoids into the rhizosphere and their role in plant nutrition (207 citations)

His Horticulture study incorporates themes from Rhizobacteria, Plant nutrition and Phosphate. His work deals with themes such as Chelation, Primary, Plant physiology, Secondary metabolism and Solubility, which intersect with Rhizosphere. The various areas that Stefano Cesco examines in his Phosphorus study include Rhizotron, Solanum, Chromatography and Exudate.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Hydroponic Solutions for Soilless Production Systems: Issues and Opportunities in a Smart Agriculture Perspective. (32 citations)
  • Humic Substances Contribute to Plant Iron Nutrition Acting as Chelators and Biostimulants (30 citations)
  • Synergism and antagonisms between nutrients induced by copper toxicity in grapevine rootstocks: Monocropping vs. intercropping. (22 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Bacteria
  • Botany

Stefano Cesco mostly deals with Nutrient, Intercropping, Copper toxicity, Agronomy and Rhizosphere. His Nutrient research includes elements of Botany, Plant physiology, Chelation, Soil organic matter and Primary. His studies in Botany integrate themes in fields like Metabolomics and Chromosomal translocation.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Cultivar, Horticulture, Symplast and Monocropping in addition to Intercropping. In general Agronomy study, his work on Manure often relates to the realm of Digestate, thereby connecting several areas of interest. Stefano Cesco has researched Rhizosphere in several fields, including Cucumis, Oxidase test, Reductase, Enzyme and Toxicity.
