Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Genetics

Benjamin A. Horwitz focuses on Genetics, Genome, Trichoderma, Gene and Fungal protein. His Genome research integrates issues from Secondary metabolism and Trichoderma reesei. His Trichoderma study is concerned with the field of Botany as a whole.

His Botany research incorporates themes from Plasmid and Genomics. His studies in Mutant and Transcription factor are all subfields of Gene research. His work deals with themes such as Asexual sporulation and Conidiation, which intersect with Fungal protein.

His most cited work include:

  • Trichoderma : the genomics of opportunistic success (538 citations)
  • Comparative genome sequence analysis underscores mycoparasitism as the ancestral life style of Trichoderma (433 citations)
  • Diverse Lifestyles and Strategies of Plant Pathogenesis Encoded in the Genomes of Eighteen Dothideomycetes Fungi (376 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Mutant, Trichoderma, Microbiology, Gene and Cochliobolus heterostrophus. His work in Mutant covers topics such as Regulation of gene expression which are related to areas like Molecular biology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Conidiation, Biological pest control and Fungus in addition to Trichoderma.

His studies deal with areas such as Trichoderma harzianum, Human skin and Rhizoctonia solani as well as Microbiology. His study with Gene involves better knowledge in Genetics. His study in Cochliobolus heterostrophus is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Transcription factor and Fungal protein.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Mutant (28.57%)
  • Trichoderma (27.68%)
  • Microbiology (25.89%)

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

  • Trichoderma (27.68%)
  • Microbiology (25.89%)
  • Cochliobolus heterostrophus (23.21%)

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

His primary areas of study are Trichoderma, Microbiology, Cochliobolus heterostrophus, Mutant and Cell biology. His Trichoderma study results in a more complete grasp of Botany. His Microbiology research includes elements of Hydrophobin, Secretory protein, Cell wall and Fungus.

His Cochliobolus heterostrophus research incorporates elements of Phosphatase, Dephosphorylation, Transporter and Protein tyrosine phosphatase. In his research on the topic of Mutant, Peptide, Conidiation and Suppression subtractive hybridization is strongly related with Secondary metabolism. His Cell biology research integrates issues from Asexual sporulation and Transcription factor, YAP1.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Molecular dialogues between Trichoderma and roots: Role of the fungal secretome (53 citations)
  • Genomics‐Driven Discovery of the Gliovirin Biosynthesis Gene Cluster in the Plant Beneficial Fungus Trichoderma Virens (11 citations)
  • Regulation of conidiation and antagonistic properties of the soil-borne plant beneficial fungus Trichoderma virens by a novel proline-, glycine-, tyrosine-rich protein and a GPI-anchored cell wall protein. (5 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Genetics

His primary areas of investigation include Trichoderma, Fungus, Pathogen, Mutant and Gene. His Trichoderma study combines topics in areas such as Gene cluster and Secondary metabolite. His study on Fungus is covered under Botany.

Pathogen is a primary field of his research addressed under Microbiology. His work in the fields of Mutant, such as Conidiation, overlaps with other areas such as Translationally controlled tumour protein. His biological study focuses on Thioesterase.
