Yves Castonguay

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Gene
• Botany
• DNA

Yves Castonguay spends much of his time researching Agronomy, Forage, Sucrose, Perennial plant and Starch. Agronomy is closely attributed to Cold hardening in his study. His Forage research incorporates elements of Legume and Dry matter.

His Sucrose research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Grass tetany and Botany. His Botany research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Carbohydrate and Horticulture. His Perennial plant research includes themes of Recombinant DNA, Overwintering, Forage crop, Molecular biology and Diagnostic Reagent.

His most cited work include:

• A New Cold-Induced Alfalfa Gene Is Associated with Enhanced Hardening at Subzero Temperature (195 citations)
• Production of a diagnostic monoclonal antibody in perennial alfalfa plants (152 citations)
• Differential Accumulation of Carbohydrates in Alfalfa Cultivars of Contrasting Winterhardiness (116 citations)

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

His main research concerns Agronomy, Botany, Cultivar, Horticulture and Medicago sativa. He interconnects Genetic variability and Animal science in the investigation of issues within Agronomy. His Botany research includes elements of Storage protein and Sucrose.

His work in Cultivar addresses issues such as Overwintering, which are connected to fields such as Climate change. His Horticulture study deals with Cold acclimation intersecting with Red Clover, Freezing tolerance, Cold hardening, Glycine and Environmental factor. His study in Medicago sativa is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Genetics, Gene and Sequence analysis.

He most often published in these fields:

• Agronomy (37.50%)
• Botany (27.88%)
• Cultivar (23.08%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2020)?

• Agronomy (37.50%)
• Freezing tolerance (11.54%)
• Medicago sativa (20.19%)

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

Yves Castonguay mainly focuses on Agronomy, Freezing tolerance, Medicago sativa, Cultivar and Cold acclimation. His studies deal with areas such as Sugar, Carbon dioxide and Animal science as well as Agronomy. The various areas that Yves Castonguay examines in his Freezing tolerance study include Perennial plant and Agrostis.

His Medicago sativa research incorporates themes from Genetic variability, Gene, Genotype and Genetic variation. His Cultivar study deals with the bigger picture of Botany. His Cold acclimation study combines topics in areas such as Red Clover and Horticulture.

Between 2011 and 2020, his most popular works were:

• A proteome analysis of freezing tolerance in red clover (Trifolium pratense L.). (30 citations)
• Characterization of two novel cold-inducible K3 dehydrin genes from alfalfa (Medicago sativa spp. sativa L.). (22 citations)
• Molecular physiology and breeding at the crossroads of cold hardiness improvement. (21 citations)

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

• Gene
• Botany
• DNA

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cold acclimation, Genetics, Medicago sativa, Gene and Freezing tolerance. His Cold acclimation course of study focuses on Horticulture and Botany, Ecotype, Agrostis stolonifera and Poa annua. His research integrates issues of Carbohydrate metabolism, Sucrose-phosphatase and Raffinose, Sucrose in his study of Botany.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Monoculture, Inheritance, Hardiness and Weed in addition to Medicago sativa. Yves Castonguay has included themes like Yield, Germplasm, Agronomy and Phleum pratense L. in his Freezing tolerance study. His Agronomy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Biomass, Carbon dioxide and Sugar.
