Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Agriculture
  • Gene
  • Ecology

Vincent Vadez mainly investigates Agronomy, Drought tolerance, Plant breeding, Transpiration and Quantitative trait locus. His studies deal with areas such as Soil water, Vapour Pressure Deficit and Water content as well as Agronomy. His Drought tolerance research incorporates elements of Ecophysiology, Crop, Sowing, Plant physiology and Introgression.

His Plant breeding research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Salinity, Germplasm, Genetic variability, Arachis and Shoot. The concepts of his Transpiration study are interwoven with issues in Sorghum and Poaceae. The study incorporates disciplines such as Molecular breeding, Biotechnology, Pennisetum and Backcrossing in addition to Quantitative trait locus.

His most cited work include:

  • Transgenic approaches for abiotic stress tolerance in plants: retrospect and prospects. (428 citations)
  • Genetic variability of drought-avoidance root traits in the mini-core germplasm collection of chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) (212 citations)
  • Stress-inducible expression of At DREB1A in transgenic peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) increases transpiration efficiency under water-limiting conditions. (197 citations)

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

His main research concerns Agronomy, Drought tolerance, Transpiration, Plant breeding and Crop. His study in Agronomy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Soil water and Vapour Pressure Deficit. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Quantitative trait locus, Canopy conductance and Point of delivery.

His work carried out in the field of Transpiration brings together such families of science as Pennisetum, Sorghum, Ecophysiology and Water content. Vincent Vadez has researched Crop in several fields, including Yield, Abiotic stress, Phenology and Sowing. He interconnects Agriculture, Cultivar, Irrigation and Yield in the investigation of issues within Crop yield.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (58.08%)
  • Drought tolerance (27.84%)
  • Transpiration (24.05%)

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

  • Agronomy (58.08%)
  • Transpiration (24.05%)
  • Drought tolerance (27.84%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Agronomy, Transpiration, Drought tolerance, Water use and Water transport. His Agronomy research includes themes of Plant physiology, Salinity and Reproduction. His studies in Transpiration integrate themes in fields like Soil water and Horticulture.

His Soil water research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Genetic variability, Molecular breeding and Molecular marker. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Quantitative trait locus, Genetics, Irrigation and Introgression. His Crop research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Perennial plant, Cultivar, Yield and Orchard.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Geospatial assessment for crop physiological and management improvements with examples using the simple simulation model (11 citations)
  • Isolation and functional characterization of three abiotic stress-inducible (Apx, Dhn and Hsc70) promoters from pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.) (8 citations)
  • CGIAR modeling approaches for resource-constrained scenarios: I. Accelerating crop breeding for a changing climate (7 citations)

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

  • Agriculture
  • Gene
  • Ecology

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Food security, Agriculture, Agricultural engineering and Water resources. His Agronomy research is mostly focused on the topic Water stress. His work deals with themes such as Modernization theory and Adaptability, which intersect with Food security.

His research in Agriculture intersects with topics in Climate change and Environmental planning. His Water resources study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Agricultural science and Yield gap, Yield. He works mostly in the field of Farm water, limiting it down to topics relating to Crop yield and, in certain cases, Crop, as a part of the same area of interest.
