Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • DNA

His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Gene, DNA sequencing, Salmo and Genome. His Rainbow trout research extends to Genetics, which is thematically connected. His DNA sequencing research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Nucleic acid sequence, Segmental duplication, Paired-end tag and Sequence assembly.

Ben F. Koop has included themes like Molecular biology and Genomic organization in his Nucleic acid sequence study. His Salmo research includes themes of Quantitative trait locus and SNP, Single-nucleotide polymorphism. His work focuses on many connections between Genome and other disciplines, such as Gene duplication, that overlap with his field of interest in Genome size and GenBank.

His most cited work include:

  • Mutations in ABC1 in Tangier disease and familial high-density lipoprotein deficiency (1545 citations)
  • Identification of Sonic hedgehog as a candidate gene responsible for holoprosencephaly (572 citations)
  • The Atlantic salmon genome provides insights into rediploidization (546 citations)

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

Ben F. Koop mainly investigates Genetics, Gene, Genome, Evolutionary biology and Salmo. His Genetics study focuses mostly on Locus, Gene duplication, DNA sequencing, Sequence analysis and Nucleic acid sequence. His work is dedicated to discovering how Gene, Molecular biology are connected with Complementary DNA, Homology and T-cell receptor and other disciplines.

The Evolutionary biology study combines topics in areas such as Effective population size, Genetic diversity, Demographic history, Salvelinus and Phylogenetics. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Zoology, Ecology, Bacterial artificial chromosome and Expressed sequence tag. The various areas that Ben F. Koop examines in his Zoology study include Salmon louse and Oncorhynchus.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (54.65%)
  • Gene (39.53%)
  • Genome (21.32%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Evolutionary biology (17.83%)
  • Gene (39.53%)
  • Oncorhynchus (8.91%)

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

Ben F. Koop spends much of his time researching Evolutionary biology, Gene, Oncorhynchus, Zoology and Demographic history. His Evolutionary biology research integrates issues from Effective population size, Genetic diversity, Salvelinus, Genome and SNP array. His Gene study is concerned with the field of Genetics as a whole.

Many of his research projects under Genetics are closely connected to Organophosphate with Organophosphate, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His Zoology research incorporates elements of Lepeophtheirus, Whole genome sequencing, Differentially methylated regions, Rainbow trout and Hatchery. His Demographic history study also includes

  • Evolution of sexual reproduction that intertwine with fields like Clade, Sexual reproduction, Lineage, Gene duplication and Sex linkage,
  • Esox and related Beringia, Population genomics and Genetic variation.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Parallel epigenetic modifications induced by hatchery rearing in a Pacific salmon. (85 citations)
  • Functional Annotation of All Salmonid Genomes (FAASG): an international initiative supporting future salmonid research, conservation and aquaculture (65 citations)
  • Sex-dependent dominance maintains migration supergene in rainbow trout (60 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

Ben F. Koop mostly deals with Evolutionary biology, Rainbow trout, Zoology, Salmon louse and Gene. Ben F. Koop has researched Evolutionary biology in several fields, including Genome evolution, Genome, Salvelinus, SNP array and Minor allele frequency. His research in Zoology tackles topics such as Oncorhynchus which are related to areas like Hatchery, Comparative genomics, Whole genome sequencing and Reference genome.

His study looks at the relationship between Gene and topics such as Sexual conflict, which overlap with Peer review. He integrates many fields, such as Animal health and Genetics, in his works. His research in Genetics intersects with topics in Trout and Salmonidae.
