Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Botany
  • Genetics

Her main research concerns Symbiosis, Botany, Mycorrhiza, Gene and Oryza sativa. The study incorporates disciplines such as Arbuscular mycorrhiza, Pathogen, Glomeromycota and Magnaporthe in addition to Botany. Uta Paszkowski interconnects Agriculture, Nitrogen fixation, Glomus, Domestication and Terrestrial plant in the investigation of issues within Mycorrhiza.

Her work deals with themes such as Fungus, Fusarium and Microbiology, which intersect with Gene. Her Oryza sativa study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Medicago truncatula, Periarbuscular membrane and Phosphate. Her Shotgun sequencing, Whole genome sequencing and Synteny study, which is part of a larger body of work in Genome, is frequently linked to Gene mapping, bridging the gap between disciplines.

Her most cited work include:

  • A draft séquence of the rice genome (Oryza sativa L. ssp. japonica) : The rice genome (1886 citations)
  • Rice phosphate transporters include an evolutionarily divergent gene specifically activated in arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis (469 citations)
  • Genome of an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus provides insight into the oldest plant symbiosis (451 citations)

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

Uta Paszkowski spends much of her time researching Symbiosis, Botany, Gene, Fungus and Arbuscular mycorrhiza. Her Symbiosis study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Mutant, Phosphate and Cell biology. Her Botany research integrates issues from Host, Oryza sativa and Glomeromycota.

Genetics covers Uta Paszkowski research in Oryza sativa. Her biological study deals with issues like Molecular biology, which deal with fields such as Biosynthesis, Enzyme, Structural gene and Northern blot. Her studies in Fungus integrate themes in fields like Intracellular and Burkholderia, Bacteria.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Symbiosis (92.54%)
  • Botany (73.13%)
  • Gene (25.37%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Symbiosis (92.54%)
  • Cell biology (23.88%)
  • Rhizophagus irregularis (25.37%)

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

Uta Paszkowski focuses on Symbiosis, Cell biology, Rhizophagus irregularis, Botany and Fungus. Uta Paszkowski works in the field of Symbiosis, namely Arbuscular mycorrhiza. The Cell biology study combines topics in areas such as Reprogramming and Plant development.

Her study in Rhizophagus irregularis is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Evolutionary biology and Gene. Her research in Fungus focuses on subjects like Intracellular, which are connected to Ustilago, Hypha and Plant cell. Uta Paszkowski combines subjects such as Phosphate and Shoot with her study of Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Mechanisms Underlying Establishment of Arbuscular Mycorrhizal Symbioses (38 citations)
  • Arbuscular cell invasion coincides with extracellular vesicles and membrane tubules. (27 citations)
  • The negative regulator SMAX1 controls mycorrhizal symbiosis and strigolactone biosynthesis in rice (24 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Botany
  • Genetics

Her primary scientific interests are in Symbiosis, Rhizophagus irregularis, Fungus, Cell biology and Intracellular. Her research integrates issues of Mutualism, Botany, Agriculture, New crop and Regulation of gene expression in her study of Symbiosis. Her research on Regulation of gene expression concerns the broader Gene.

Strigolactone is the focus of her Gene research. Her Rhizophagus irregularis research includes elements of Plant cell and Kinase. The various areas that Uta Paszkowski examines in her Intracellular study include Ustilago, Serine, Mutant, Hypha and Sporogenesis.
