Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Enzyme
  • Gene

Yosef Mizrahi focuses on Botany, Horticulture, Hylocereus, Cultivar and Agronomy. His Botany research includes themes of Aroma, Abscisic acid and Betanin. His study in Ripening and Shoot is carried out as part of his Horticulture studies.

His Ripening research integrates issues from Anthesis and Titratable acid. His Hylocereus research incorporates themes from DNA extraction, Hylocereus undatus, Hybrid, Ploidy and Mucilage. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Agronomy, Melon, Organoleptic and Irrigation is strongly linked to Salinity.

His most cited work include:

  • Modified CTAB Procedure for DNA Isolation from Epiphytic Cacti of the Genera Hylocereus and Selenicereus (Cactaceae) (239 citations)
  • Responses of climacteric and suppressed-climacteric plums to treatment with propylene and 1-methylcyclopropene (178 citations)
  • Cacti as Crops (148 citations)

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

Yosef Mizrahi mostly deals with Botany, Horticulture, Ripening, Lycopersicon and Hylocereus. Botany is frequently linked to Ploidy in his study. Yosef Mizrahi has included themes like Salinity and Agronomy in his Horticulture study.

His Ripening study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Mutant, Titratable acid and Postharvest. His Lycopersicon study combines topics in areas such as Biochemistry and Solanaceae. His Hylocereus research incorporates elements of Chromatography and Hybrid.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (48.09%)
  • Horticulture (38.17%)
  • Ripening (25.19%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2003-2020)?

  • Botany (48.09%)
  • Hylocereus (15.27%)
  • Cactus (11.45%)

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

Yosef Mizrahi mainly focuses on Botany, Hylocereus, Cactus, Hylocereus undatus and Horticulture. When carried out as part of a general Botany research project, his work on Vine, Plant physiology and Selenicereus grandiflorus is frequently linked to work in RAPD and Genetic relationship, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. Yosef Mizrahi combines subjects such as Epiphyllum, Betalain, DNA profiling, Chromatography and Hybrid with his study of Hylocereus.

The various areas that Yosef Mizrahi examines in his Cactus study include Agronomy, Pollination, Endogeny, Flower induction and Cytokinin. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cultivar, Anthesis, Crassulacean acid metabolism, photoperiodism and Pollinator. In general Horticulture, his work in PEAR, Germination and Postharvest is often linked to Cereus linking many areas of study.

Between 2003 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Cacti as Crops (148 citations)
  • Generation of decarboxylated and dehydrogenated betacyanins in thermally treated purified fruit extract from purple pitaya (Hylocereus polyrhizus) monitored by LC-MS/MS. (58 citations)
  • Genetic Relationships among Hylocereus and Selenicereus Vine Cacti (Cactaceae): Evidence from Hybridization and Cytological Studies (55 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Enzyme
  • Gene

Hylocereus, Botany, Betacyanins, Chromatography and Hylocereus polyrhizus are his primary areas of study. Yosef Mizrahi combines topics linked to Cultural methods with his work on Hylocereus. His study in Botany is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ploidy and Agronomy.

His work deals with themes such as Photosynthesis, Salinity, Medicinal plants and Plant physiology, which intersect with Agronomy. His research investigates the connection between Betacyanins and topics such as Carbon-13 NMR that intersect with problems in Moiety, Biochemistry, High-performance liquid chromatography and Phyllocactin. His Chromatography research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Betalain and Aqueous solution.
