Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genome
  • Fungus

His primary scientific interests are in Genome, Genetics, Gene, Botany and Phylogenetics. Ecology and Annotation is closely connected to Computational biology in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Genome. His studies link Evolutionary biology with Genetics.

In the field of Gene, his study on Gene family, Nuclear gene, Synteny and Genomic organization overlaps with subjects such as Paleopolyploidy. His Botany study deals with Cellulase intersecting with Xylan and Microbial metabolism. His work carried out in the field of Phylogenetics brings together such families of science as Protein family, Phytophthora ramorum, Phytophthora, Phytophthora sojae and Sequence analysis.

His most cited work include:

  • The genome of black cottonwood, Populus trichocarpa (Torr. & Gray) (3324 citations)
  • The Sorghum bicolor genome and the diversification of grasses (2200 citations)
  • The Chlamydomonas Genome Reveals the Evolution of Key Animal and Plant Functions (2003 citations)

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

His main research concerns Genome, Genetics, Gene, Evolutionary biology and Comparative genomics. His research in Genome intersects with topics in Phylogenetics, Computational biology and Botany. His Botany research includes elements of Hypocrea and Genome size.

Sequence analysis, Fungal genetics, Synteny, Gene duplication and Genome project are the subjects of his Genetics studies. His work on Gene family, Horizontal gene transfer, Nuclear gene and Gene expression profiling as part of general Gene research is often related to Secondary metabolism, thus linking different fields of science. In Comparative genomics, Asaf Salamov works on issues like Aspergillus, which are connected to Genus.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genome (55.90%)
  • Genetics (42.24%)
  • Gene (30.43%)

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

  • Evolutionary biology (18.63%)
  • Comparative genomics (18.63%)
  • Aspergillus (13.66%)

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

His primary areas of study are Evolutionary biology, Comparative genomics, Aspergillus, Genome and Genus. His Evolutionary biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Fungus, Botany, Phylogenetic tree, Aspergillus species and Synteny. Asaf Salamov interconnects Hypocreales and Fungal protein in the investigation of issues within Botany.

In his work, Genetic variation, Aspergillus nidulans, Classical genetics, Catabolism and Sugar is strongly intertwined with Aspergillus niger, which is a subfield of Aspergillus. The study of Gene and Genetics are components of his Genome research. In the subject of general Gene, his work in Phycomyces blakesleeanus, Gene family, DNA methylation and Shotgun sequencing is often linked to Secondary metabolism, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • An expanded evaluation of protein function prediction methods shows an improvement in accuracy (241 citations)
  • Comparative genomics reveals high biological diversity and specific adaptations in the industrially and medically important fungal genus Aspergillus (228 citations)
  • Comparative genomics of biotechnologically important yeasts (193 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genome
  • Fungus

Asaf Salamov mainly focuses on Genome, Phylogenetics, Genetics, Gene and Comparative genomics. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Adaptation, Ecology and Aspergillus. His research investigates the connection between Phylogenetics and topics such as Evolutionary biology that intersect with problems in Genomics and Synteny.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Phycomyces and Signal transduction in addition to Gene. The Comparative genomics study combines topics in areas such as Anaerobic bacteria, Microbiology and Phylogenetic tree. He has researched Fungal genetics in several fields, including Basidiomycota, Fungus, Botany and Hypocreales, Ascomycota.
