Thomson Reuters analyzed 36 institutions from around the world with the greatest number of highly cited papers (top 1% of all papers in the field of plant sciences and mycology). Although Salk&#8217;s plant biology laboratory only produced 53 highly cited papers, the impact of each individual paper from the Salk was far greater than most of the other institutions &#8211; an average of 162 citations per highly cited paper. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/de\/pdf\/news\/Topresearchinstitutionsinplantsciencesandmycology.pdf\/\">Click here to view the Plant Biology Rankings.<\/a>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"imageCaption\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.salk.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/509_JoanneChory.jpg\" alt=\"Joanne Chory\" width=\"300\"><\/p>\n<p>\nJoanne Chory, Professor and Director,<br \/>\nLabor f\u00fcr molekulare und zellul\u00e4re Pflanzenbiologie\n<\/p>\n<p>\nBild: Mit freundlicher Genehmigung des Salk Institute for Biological Studies\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>\nThe report included plant biology programs from the U.S., Japan, France, Germany, Netherlands, United Kingdom, Australia, China, Spain and Sweden.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;It is a remarkable achievement for our plant biology program, considering we have reached this level with just a handful of faculty over the years,&#8221; said Joanne Chory, Ph.D., professor and director of plant molecular and cellular biology laboratory, Salk Institute. &#8220;Plants are the foundation for all human life on earth, providing food, fiber, medications, building materials, and the oxygen we breathe. Moreover, we have to better understand how plants grow, if we are going to feed 9 billion people, provide alternatives to fossil fuel, and understand the impact human activity is having on our environment.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;The Salk Institute has a dream team of plant biologists,&#8221; said William R. Brody, president, Salk Institute. &#8220;Understanding how plants grow, develop, how their genome works, and how they respond to normal and abnormal environmental conditions is important ultimately to help improve crop yields, with obvious impact on the economy, health and well being.&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>\nSalk&#8217;s plant biology program is best known for mapping the interface between genetic, metabolic and environmental factors that dictate traits such as biomass, sustainability, yield, and flowering time. These experiments have informed not only plant biologists and breeders, but plant genomic studies have also set the stage for how to analyze genomic data that will decipher stem cell biology and the plasticity of the brain.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nFounded more than 28 years ago, the Salk&#8217;s plant biology program is home to groundbreaking research that profoundly impacts many areas of science, including: agriculture, stem cell research, tumor biology and drug development.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00dcber das Salk Institute for Biological Studies:<\/strong><br \/>\nDas Salk Institute for Biological Studies ist eine der weltweit f\u00fchrenden Institutionen f\u00fcr Grundlagenforschung, an der international renommierte Fakult\u00e4tsmitglieder grundlegende Fragen der Biowissenschaften in einem einzigartigen, kollaborativen und kreativen Umfeld untersuchen. Mit dem Fokus auf Entdeckungen und die Ausbildung zuk\u00fcnftiger Forschergenerationen leisten Salk-Wissenschaftler bahnbrechende Beitr\u00e4ge zu unserem Verst\u00e4ndnis von Krebs, Alterung, Alzheimer, Diabetes und Infektionskrankheiten durch die Untersuchung von Neurowissenschaften, Genetik, Zell- und Pflanzenbiologie sowie verwandten Disziplinen.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nDie Leistungen der Fakult\u00e4t wurden mit zahlreichen Auszeichnungen gew\u00fcrdigt, darunter Nobelpreise und Mitgliedschaften in der National Academy of Sciences.
