Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

Genus
Gene
Ecology

Axel Janke focuses on Phylogenetics, Mitochondrial DNA, Phylogenetic tree, Zoology and Evolutionary biology. His Mitochondrial DNA research includes elements of Marsupial and Genome. The study incorporates disciplines such as Subspecies, Outgroup and Ovis in addition to Phylogenetic tree.

Zoology is closely attributed to Sister group in his research. His Sister group study incorporates themes from Afrotheria, Euarchontoglires, Monophyly and Paraphyly. His research in Evolutionary biology focuses on subjects like Clade, which are connected to Ecology, Pleistocene, Arctic and Coalescent theory.

His most cited work include:

Mammalian mitogenomic relationships and the root of the eutherian tree. (346 citations)
The marsupial mitochondrial genome and the evolution of placental mammals. (286 citations)
The Complete Mitochondrial Genome of the Wallaroo (Macropus Robustus) and the Phylogenetic Relationship Among Monotremata, Marsupialia, and Eutheria (229 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Phylogenetic tree, Zoology, Evolutionary biology, Phylogenetics and Mitochondrial DNA. His work on Clade as part of general Phylogenetic tree research is frequently linked to Genetic divergence, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Zoology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Paraphyly, Sister group, Evolution of mammals and Primate.

His Evolutionary biology research incorporates elements of Genome, Glires, Monophyly and Coalescent theory. His studies deal with areas such as Outgroup, Marsupial and Sequence analysis as well as Phylogenetics. Mitochondrial DNA is a subfield of Genetics that he tackles.

He most often published in these fields:

Phylogenetic tree (49.21%)
Zoology (44.44%)
Evolutionary biology (38.10%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2018)?

Phylogenetic tree (49.21%)
Evolutionary biology (38.10%)
Coalescent theory (11.11%)

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

His main research concerns Phylogenetic tree, Evolutionary biology, Coalescent theory, Nuclear gene and Genome. His Phylogenetic tree study introduces a deeper knowledge of Genetics. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Whale, Rorqual, Baleen and Balaenoptera musculus.

Axel Janke interconnects Phylogenomics and Clade in the investigation of issues within Coalescent theory. His Nuclear gene study is related to the wider topic of Mitochondrial DNA. In his study, Giraffa, Masai giraffe, Subspecies and Giraffa camelopardalis is strongly linked to Monophyly, which falls under the umbrella field of Genome.

Between 2014 and 2018, his most popular works were:

Implementing and testing the multispecies coalescent model: A valuable paradigm for phylogenomics (220 citations)
The evolutionary history of bears is characterized by gene flow across species. (112 citations)
Multi-locus Analyses Reveal Four Giraffe Species Instead of One. (109 citations)

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

Genus
Gene
Ecology

Axel Janke mainly focuses on Coalescent theory, Giraffa, Genetic isolate, Monophyly and Masai giraffe. He has begun a study into Coalescent theory, looking into Phylogenetics and Phylogenetic tree. As part of his inquiry into Giraffa camelopardalis and Zoology, he is doing Giraffa research.
