Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Botany
  • Enzyme

His primary scientific interests are in Botany, Theobroma, Biochemistry, Moniliophthora roreri and Trichoderma. His study in the fields of Moniliophthora perniciosa under the domain of Botany overlaps with other disciplines such as Caffeine synthase. His work deals with themes such as Gene expression, Chitinase, Peroxidase, Glucanase and Methyl jasmonate, which intersect with Theobroma.

His work in the fields of Biochemistry, such as Biosynthesis and Nicotiana tabacum, overlaps with other areas such as Arabidopsis thaliana and Osmoprotectant. His Trichoderma research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Endophyte and Antibiosis. His work carried out in the field of Endophyte brings together such families of science as Expressed sequence tag and Seedling.

His most cited work include:

  • The beneficial endophyte Trichoderma hamatum isolate DIS 219b promotes growth and delays the onset of the drought response in Theobroma cacao (279 citations)
  • Fungal and plant gene expression during the colonization of cacao seedlings by endophytic isolates of four Trichoderma species (191 citations)
  • Antibiosis, mycoparasitism, and colonization success for endophytic Trichoderma isolates with biological control potential in Theobroma cacao (131 citations)

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

Botany, Theobroma, Horticulture, Moniliophthora roreri and Gene are his primary areas of study. His Botany research includes themes of Plant defense against herbivory and Colonization. His studies deal with areas such as Endophyte, Genetic diversity, Phytophthora, Trichoderma and Seedling as well as Theobroma.

Bryan A. Bailey has researched Horticulture in several fields, including Corn oil, Pathogen and Agronomy. His Moniliophthora roreri research includes elements of Plant disease resistance, Moniliophthora perniciosa and Microbiology, Spore. The Gene study combines topics in areas such as Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and Cultivar.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (44.66%)
  • Theobroma (31.07%)
  • Horticulture (22.33%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Theobroma (31.07%)
  • Phytophthora (15.53%)
  • Moniliophthora roreri (18.45%)

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

Bryan A. Bailey mainly investigates Theobroma, Phytophthora, Moniliophthora roreri, Genetics and Horticulture. His research integrates issues of Oomycete, Fungicide and Genetic diversity in his study of Theobroma. His studies examine the connections between Phytophthora and genetics, as well as such issues in Inoculation, with regards to Virulence.

Bryan A. Bailey interconnects Plant disease resistance, Moniliophthora perniciosa and Germination in the investigation of issues within Moniliophthora roreri. His Phytophthora palmivora study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Botany. He combines subjects such as Plant defense against herbivory and Internal transcribed spacer with his study of Botany.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genome and secretome analysis of the hemibiotrophic fungal pathogen, Moniliophthora roreri, which causes frosty pod rot disease of cacao: mechanisms of the biotrophic and necrotrophic phases (71 citations)
  • Phytophthora megakarya and Phytophthora palmivora, closely related causal agents of cacao black pod rot, underwent increases in genome sizes and gene numbers by different mechanisms (38 citations)
  • PCR-based identification of cacao black pod causal agents and identification of biological factors possibly contributing to Phytophthora megakarya's field dominance in West Africa (23 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Botany
  • Enzyme

Bryan A. Bailey focuses on Theobroma, Phytophthora megakarya, Phytophthora palmivora, Phytophthora and Gene. He studies Moniliophthora, a branch of Theobroma. The concepts of his Phytophthora study are interwoven with issues in Mycology and Broom.

His Gene research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Moniliophthora roreri and Microbiology. Bryan A. Bailey has included themes like Moniliophthora perniciosa and Botany in his Plant defense against herbivory study. His Botany study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Inoculation.
