What is she best known for?
The fields of study she is best known for:
Susan J. Grayston mainly investigates Microbial population biology, Ecology, Botany, Rhizosphere and Microorganism.
Her study in Microbial population biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Organic matter, Nitrification, Soil water, Grassland and Nitrogen cycle.
Her Soil water study deals with Trifolium repens intersecting with Cambisol, Rhizobacteria, Soil classification and Plant community.
Ecology is often connected to Denitrification in her work.
As a part of the same scientific study, Susan J. Grayston usually deals with the Rhizosphere, concentrating on Exudate and frequently concerns with Carbon flow, Nutrient, Annual plant, Plant growth and Agronomy.
Her Microorganism research incorporates elements of Environmental chemistry and Assimilation.
Her most cited work include:
- Selective influence of plant species on microbial diversity in the rhizosphere (951 citations)
- Rhizosphere carbon flow in trees, in comparison with annual plants: the importance of root exudation and its impact on microbial activity and nutrient availability (807 citations)
- Soil moisture is the major factor influencing microbial community structure and enzyme activities across seven biogeoclimatic zones in western Canada (489 citations)
What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?
Her main research concerns Botany, Agronomy, Ecology, Soil water and Microbial population biology.
Susan J. Grayston has researched Botany in several fields, including Soil carbon, Microorganism, Soil classification, Fatty acid and Rhizosphere.
She has included themes like Nutrient and Herbivore in her Agronomy study.
Her research investigates the link between Ecology and topics such as Nitrogen cycle that cross with problems in Denitrification.
Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Nutrient cycle, Temperate rainforest, Nitrification and Methane.
Her studies deal with areas such as Organic matter, Biomass, Temperature gradient gel electrophoresis, Environmental chemistry and Community structure as well as Microbial population biology.
She most often published in these fields:
- Botany (34.62%)
- Agronomy (34.62%)
- Ecology (35.38%)

In recent papers she was focusing on the following fields of study:
Susan J. Grayston mostly deals with Soil water, Agronomy, Ecology, Ecosystem and Water content.
The various areas that Susan J. Grayston examines in her Soil water study include Nutrient cycle, Forest ecology, Vegetation and Microbial population biology.
Her Nutrient cycle study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Nitrification, Tree species, Botany, Microorganism and Phosphatase.
Her research in Agronomy intersects with topics in Organic matter, Forest management, Soil organic matter, Forest floor and Nutrient.
Her Ecology study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Cycling.
While the research belongs to areas of Ecosystem, Susan J. Grayston spends her time largely on the problem of Herbivore, intersecting her research to questions surrounding Plant cover, Abiotic component and Odocoileus.
Between 2015 and 2021, her most popular works were:
- Linking microbial communities, functional genes and nitrogen-cycling processes in forest floors under four tree species (32 citations)
- Microbial and Environmental Controls of Methane Fluxes Along a Soil Moisture Gradient in a Pacific Coastal Temperate Rainforest (21 citations)
- Stable isotope probing implicates a species of Cortinarius in carbon transfer through ectomycorrhizal fungal mycelial networks in Arctic tundra (21 citations)
In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
Ecosystem, Soil water, Agronomy, Nutrient and Botany are her primary areas of study.
Her studies in Ecosystem integrate themes in fields like Rainforest, Soil organic matter, Environmental chemistry and Growing season.
Her Soil water research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Nutrient cycle and Vegetation.
Her Nutrient cycle research includes themes of Microbial population biology and Denitrifying bacteria.
Her Agronomy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Photosynthesis, Organic matter and Microorganism.
The Botany study combines topics in areas such as Denitrification, Nitrogen cycle and Stable-isotope probing.
