Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Law

His primary areas of study are Herbivore, Ecology, Plant defense against herbivory, Botany and Evolutionary ecology. Anurag A. Agrawal is interested in Inducible plant defenses against herbivory, which is a field of Herbivore. His is involved in several facets of Ecology study, as is seen by his studies on Biodiversity, Plant tolerance to herbivory, Phenotypic plasticity, Adaptation and Plant Physiological Phenomena.

His research in Phenotypic plasticity intersects with topics in Phenotype and Chemical ecology. Anurag A. Agrawal combines subjects such as Acariformes, Tetranychus urticae and Spider mite with his study of Plant defense against herbivory. The various areas that Anurag A. Agrawal examines in his Botany study include Jasmonic acid and Genetics.

His most cited work include:

  • The ecology and evolution of plant tolerance to herbivory. (1286 citations)
  • Phenotypic plasticity in the interactions and evolution of species. (1208 citations)
  • Transgenerational induction of defences in animals and plants (626 citations)

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

Anurag A. Agrawal mainly focuses on Ecology, Herbivore, Botany, Plant defense against herbivory and Phenotypic plasticity. His study involves Ecology, Evolutionary ecology, Coevolution, Chemical ecology and Adaptation, a branch of Ecology. The concepts of his Adaptation study are interwoven with issues in Host and Phylogenetics.

Anurag A. Agrawal specializes in Herbivore, namely Plant tolerance to herbivory. His Plant defense against herbivory study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Jasmonic acid. Anurag A. Agrawal has included themes like Monarch butterfly and Phylogenetic tree in his Asclepias study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (52.34%)
  • Herbivore (49.22%)
  • Botany (36.72%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Ecology (52.34%)
  • Herbivore (49.22%)
  • Botany (36.72%)

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

His main research concerns Ecology, Herbivore, Botany, Asclepias and Cardenolide. Anurag A. Agrawal merges Ecology with Specialization in his research. His Herbivore study incorporates themes from Resistance, Host, Adaptation, Insect and Generalist and specialist species.

Many of his studies on Botany apply to Plant defense against herbivory as well. His Asclepias research integrates issues from Nectar guide, Pollinator, Nectar, Apocynaceae and Forage. His work carried out in the field of Cardenolide brings together such families of science as Biochemistry, Erysimum cheiranthoides and Chemical ecology.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Trade-Offs Between Plant Growth and Defense Against Insect Herbivory: An Emerging Mechanistic Synthesis (174 citations)
  • Mechanisms and evolution of plant resistance to aphids. (139 citations)
  • Linking the continental migratory cycle of the monarch butterfly to understand its population decline (83 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Law

Anurag A. Agrawal mostly deals with Ecology, Herbivore, Monarch butterfly, Cardenolide and Adaptation. His study brings together the fields of Plant defense against herbivory and Ecology. His Herbivore study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Host, Generalist and specialist species, Sympatric speciation and Aphid.

His Generalist and specialist species research also works with subjects such as

  • Guild and related Botany,
  • Foraging which connect with Pollinator. His studies in Monarch butterfly integrate themes in fields like Asclepias, Insect and Danaus. The study incorporates disciplines such as Evolutionary biology and Evolutionary ecology in addition to Adaptation.
