Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Botany

Victor Flors mainly investigates Botany, Abscisic acid, Mutant, Abiotic stress and Cell biology. Botany and Oxylipin are commonly linked in his work. His studies in Mutant integrate themes in fields like Callose, Gene expression and Pseudomonas syringae.

His Abiotic stress research includes themes of Plant disease resistance and Priming. His study in Plant disease resistance is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Biotic stress, Plant defense against herbivory and Biotechnology. Victor Flors usually deals with Priming and limits it to topics linked to Cellular defense and Jasmonic acid.

His most cited work include:

  • Priming: Getting Ready for Battle (1041 citations)
  • The multifaceted role of ABA in disease resistance (559 citations)
  • Next-Generation Systemic Acquired Resistance (423 citations)

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

Victor Flors focuses on Botany, Jasmonic acid, Arabidopsis, Biochemistry and Mutant. His Botany research includes elements of Metabolomics, Symbiosis, Abscisic acid and Oxylipin. His work investigates the relationship between Abscisic acid and topics such as Plant disease resistance that intersect with problems in Plant defense against herbivory, Abiotic stress, Psychological repression and Reactive oxygen species.

His studies deal with areas such as Biological pest control and Whitefly as well as Jasmonic acid. His Arabidopsis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Callose and Cell biology. His Mutant research incorporates themes from Molecular biology, Priming and Pseudomonas syringae.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (37.96%)
  • Jasmonic acid (22.22%)
  • Arabidopsis (21.30%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Arabidopsis (21.30%)
  • Horticulture (12.04%)
  • Plant defense against herbivory (12.96%)

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

His primary areas of study are Arabidopsis, Horticulture, Plant defense against herbivory, Tetranychus urticae and Botrytis cinerea. As part of his studies on Arabidopsis, he often connects relevant areas like Cell biology. Victor Flors has included themes like Callose, Gene, Rhizosphere, Fungus and Metabolism in his Cell biology study.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Ecology, Crop protection, Environmentally friendly, Arthropod and Systems biology in addition to Plant defense against herbivory. The Botrytis cinerea study which covers Mutant that intersects with Glycoside. His Pest control course of study focuses on Jasmonic acid and Biotic stress.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Role and mechanisms of callose priming in mycorrhiza-induced resistance. (10 citations)
  • Hormone and secondary metabolite profiling in chestnut during susceptible and resistant interactions with Phytophthora cinnamomi. (8 citations)
  • Zoophytophagous mites can trigger plant-genotype specific defensive responses affecting potential prey beyond predation: the case of Euseius stipulatus and Tetranychus urticae in citrus. (8 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Botany

Victor Flors mostly deals with Horticulture, Cell biology, Predation, Citrus reshni and Plant defense against herbivory. His research in Horticulture intersects with topics in Proline and Pathogen. His research integrates issues of Callose, Gene, Oxylipin metabolism, Expression pattern and Medicago truncatula in his study of Cell biology.

The Predation study combines topics in areas such as Methyl salicylate, Tetranychus urticae and Herbivore. His study of Citrus reshni brings together topics like Spider mite, Jasmonic acid, Pest control, PEST analysis and Biological pest control. Victor Flors performs multidisciplinary study in the fields of Plant defense against herbivory and Taxonomic rank via his papers.
