Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Agriculture

Botany, Hyperaccumulator, Soil contamination, Soil water and Agronomy are his primary areas of study. His study in Botany is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Arsenate, Pteris vittata and Arsenite. His Hyperaccumulator study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Phytotoxicity, Growth medium and Trichome.

His Soil contamination research includes elements of Environmental engineering, Soil classification, Nitrogen fixation, Soil pH and Environmental remediation. His Soil water study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Sludge, Chronic toxicity, Sewage, Contamination and Environmental chemistry. When carried out as part of a general Agronomy research project, his work on Crop yield, Cultivar and Poaceae is frequently linked to work in Biofortification, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

His most cited work include:

  • Toxicity of heavy metals to microorganisms and microbial processes in agricultural soils: a review (1523 citations)
  • Metal hyperaccumulator plants: a review of the ecology and physiology of a biological resource for phytoremediation of metal-polluted soils (872 citations)
  • Transporters of arsenite in rice and their role in arsenic accumulation in rice grain (854 citations)

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

Steve P. McGrath mainly investigates Environmental chemistry, Soil water, Agronomy, Botany and Soil contamination. In the subject of general Environmental chemistry, his work in Heavy metals is often linked to Term, thereby combining diverse domains of study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Sludge and Phytotoxicity.

His study in the field of Crop, Cultivar and Poaceae is also linked to topics like Biofortification. His Botany research integrates issues from Hyperaccumulator, Thlaspi caerulescens, Animal science and Arsenite. His Thlaspi caerulescens study incorporates themes from Ecotype and Thlaspi.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental chemistry (38.55%)
  • Soil water (32.86%)
  • Agronomy (26.07%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2021)?

  • Agronomy (26.07%)
  • Soil water (32.86%)
  • Environmental chemistry (38.55%)

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

Steve P. McGrath focuses on Agronomy, Soil water, Environmental chemistry, Soil pH and Bioavailability. His work in Agronomy addresses issues such as Plant physiology, which are connected to fields such as Shoot and Oryza sativa. He has included themes like Sludge, Contamination and Microbial population biology in his Soil water study.

His research integrates issues of Biosolids, Wastewater and Leaching in his study of Environmental chemistry. His Soil contamination study deals with Paddy field intersecting with Arsenite. Steve P. McGrath combines subjects such as Microbial ecology and Botany with his study of Soil microbiology.

Between 2010 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Soil Contamination in China: Current Status and Mitigation Strategies (722 citations)
  • Soil pH Determines Microbial Diversity and Composition in the Park Grass Experiment (263 citations)
  • Variation in Rice Cadmium Related to Human Exposure (225 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Agriculture

His main research concerns Agronomy, Soil water, Environmental chemistry, Arsenite and Oryza sativa. His studies in Agronomy integrate themes in fields like Soil pH, Bran and Bioavailability. His Soil water and Soil contamination and Hyperaccumulator investigations all form part of his Soil water research activities.

His Environmental chemistry research integrates issues from Biosolids, Soil carbon, Citric acid and Microbial population biology. His Arsenite research includes elements of Biophysics and Phloem, Botany. His Oryza sativa study incorporates themes from Arsenate, Mutant and Shoot.
