Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

Vimla Vasil mainly focuses on Botany, Gene, Callus, Somatic embryogenesis and Protoplast. The Botany study combines topics in areas such as Transformation, Transgene and Embryo. Vimla Vasil works mostly in the field of Gene, limiting it down to concerns involving Molecular biology and, occasionally, Southern blot, Transcription and Intron.

Her research investigates the link between Callus and topics such as Cultivar that cross with problems in Germination and Scutellum. Her studies in Protoplast integrate themes in fields like Cell culture and Shoot. Her research in Reporter gene tackles topics such as Transcription factor which are related to areas like Regulation of gene expression and Activator.

Her most cited work include:

  • Herbicide resistant fertile transgenic wheat plants obtained by microprojectile bombardment of regenerable embryogenic callus (663 citations)
  • The Viviparous-1 developmental gene of maize encodes a novel transcriptional activator. (585 citations)
  • Evaluation of Selectable Markers for Obtaining Stable Transformants in the Gramineae (290 citations)

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

Vimla Vasil mostly deals with Botany, Callus, Protoplast, Gene and Somatic embryogenesis.
