Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Genetics

His primary areas of investigation include Phylogenetic tree, Evolutionary biology, Phylogenetics, Zoology and Genetics. Brant C. Faircloth has researched Evolutionary biology in several fields, including Genome evolution and Lineage. In his work, DNA sequencing, Sequence analysis and Tuatara is strongly intertwined with Genome, which is a subfield of Phylogenetics.

The Zoology study combines topics in areas such as Clade and Monophyly. His work on Massive parallel sequencing and Primer as part of general Genetics research is frequently linked to Web service and Design process, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. The various areas that Brant C. Faircloth examines in his Neoaves study include Passerea, Columbea, Neognathae and Palaeognathae.

His most cited work include:

  • Primer3—new capabilities and interfaces (4908 citations)
  • Whole-genome analyses resolve early branches in the tree of life of modern birds (1174 citations)
  • Whole-genome analyses resolve early branches in the tree of life of modern birds (1174 citations)

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

Brant C. Faircloth mainly focuses on Evolutionary biology, Phylogenetic tree, Phylogenetics, Genome and Genetics. His work carried out in the field of Evolutionary biology brings together such families of science as Tree of life, Taxon, Lineage, Monophyly and Gene flow. The concepts of his Phylogenetic tree study are interwoven with issues in Zoology and Ecology.

Brant C. Faircloth combines subjects such as Systematics, Vertebrate and Biogeography with his study of Phylogenetics. Particularly relevant to Genomics is his body of work in Genome. A large part of his Clade studies is devoted to Neoaves.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Evolutionary biology (51.30%)
  • Phylogenetic tree (40.26%)
  • Phylogenetics (31.17%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Evolutionary biology (51.30%)
  • Genome (26.62%)
  • Phylogenetic tree (40.26%)

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

His main research concerns Evolutionary biology, Genome, Phylogenetic tree, Computational biology and Adapter. His Evolutionary biology study combines topics in areas such as Taxon, Gene flow and Phylogenetics, Clade. His Genome research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of New World quail and Colinus.

His research in Phylogenetic tree intersects with topics in Morphometrics and Target enrichment. Brant C. Faircloth has included themes like Amplicon, DNA sequencing, Illumina dye sequencing and Primer in his Adapter study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Monophyly and Coalescent theory.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Earth history and the passerine superradiation (77 citations)
  • Adapterama I: universal stubs and primers for 384 unique dual-indexed or 147,456 combinatorially-indexed Illumina libraries (iTru & iNext) (70 citations)
  • Adapterama I: Universal stubs and primers for 384 unique dual-indexed or 147,456 combinatorially-indexed Illumina libraries (iTru & iNext) (37 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Genetics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Evolutionary biology, Phylogenetic tree, Phylogenomics, Phylogenetics and Genome. His Evolutionary biology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Sister group and Monophyly. His Phylogenetic tree study focuses mostly on Tree of life and Coalescent theory.

The subject of his Phylogenomics research is within the realm of Clade. His work deals with themes such as Whole genome sequencing and Genomics, which intersect with Phylogenetics. His biological study deals with issues like genomic DNA, which deal with fields such as Adapter, Illumina dye sequencing, Computational biology and DNA sequencing.
