These rankings are calculated annually by Thomson Reuters based on the citation rates of their publications. Jian Feng Ma and Naoki Yamaji are staff members of the Soil Stress Units, Group of Plant Stress Physiology, focusing on mineral stress in plants, including excess and poor mineral nutrition, and impact of toxic metals on plants. In particular, Professor Ma and his group successfully identified large array of transporters in plants, including silicon transporters published in the high impact scientific journal Nature in 2006, […]http://www.rib.okayama-u.ac.jp/HP2012/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/5493_image_1.jpg
