Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Gene

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Zoology, Buddenbrockia plumatellae, Myxozoa, Ecology and Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae. Her Conopeum reticulum and Bryozoa study in the realm of Zoology connects with subjects such as Flow velocity, Water current and Ambient flow. Beth Okamura works mostly in the field of Buddenbrockia plumatellae, limiting it down to topics relating to Aquatic animal and, in certain cases, Disease transmission, Dicentrarchus, Cymothoidae and Aquaculture.

Her research in Myxozoa tackles topics such as Phylogenetics which are related to areas like Phylogenetic tree. Beth Okamura works in the field of Ecology, namely Propagule. Her Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Ultrastructure, Myxosporea, Microbiology, Spore and Plumatella.

Her most cited work include:

  • Dispersal in freshwater invertebrates (690 citations)
  • The Monopolization Hypothesis and the dispersal–gene flow paradox in aquatic organisms (610 citations)
  • A triploblast origin for Myxozoa (518 citations)

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

Her primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Zoology, Myxozoa, Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae and Bryozoa. Her work on Biological dispersal expands to the thematically related Ecology. Her study in Biological dispersal is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Propagule and Gene flow.

Her Zoology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Ultrastructure, Host, Phylogenetics, Ribosomal DNA and Aquatic animal. Her Myxozoa study which covers Phylogenetic tree that intersects with Phylum. As a member of one scientific family, she mostly works in the field of Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae, focusing on Spore and, on occasion, Protozoa.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (42.58%)
  • Zoology (35.48%)
  • Myxozoa (26.45%)

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

  • Zoology (35.48%)
  • Ecology (42.58%)
  • Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae (23.87%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Zoology, Ecology, Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae, Biodiversity and Myxozoa. Her Zoology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Host and Environmental DNA. She interconnects Genetics, Statoblast, Restriction enzyme, Restriction fragment length polymorphism and Sanger sequencing in the investigation of issues within Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae.

Her Biodiversity research includes elements of Climate change, Biological dispersal and Genetic divergence. Her Myxozoa study incorporates themes from Ultrastructure, Myxosporea, 18S ribosomal RNA, Phylogenetic tree and Vertebrate. Her Myxosporea research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Buddenbrockia plumatellae and Cyprinidae.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • The evolution of transmission mode (48 citations)
  • Extensive Uncharted Biodiversity: The Parasite Dimension. (28 citations)
  • Eutrophication homogenizes shallow lake macrophyte assemblages over space and time (19 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Gene

Beth Okamura spends much of her time researching Evolutionary biology, Ecology, Biodiversity, Evolutionary ecology and Eutrophication. The concepts of her Evolutionary biology study are interwoven with issues in Toxin, Proteome, Venom and Embryo. Her work deals with themes such as Biological evolution, Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae and Population genetics, which intersect with Ecology.

Her Biodiversity research focuses on Species richness and how it connects with Myxozoa. In her study, Phylogenetics is strongly linked to Cell biology, which falls under the umbrella field of Myxozoa. Her Phylogenetics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Motility and Phylogenetic tree.
