- Widespread Origins of Domestic Horse Lineages (382 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Zoology, Evolutionary biology, Genetics and Domestication.
His study explores the link between Ecology and topics such as Genetic diversity that cross with problems in Genetic variability.
Carles Vilà has included themes like Phylogeography, Phylogenetics, Monophyly and Canis in his Zoology study.
His research on Evolutionary biology also deals with topics like
- Population bottleneck together with Effective population size,
- Phylogenetic tree together with Biogeography.
His Domestication study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Jackal, Dingo, Gene, Mitochondrial DNA and Breed.
In his research on the topic of Genetic variation, Nucleotide diversity and Endangered species is strongly related with Conservation genetics.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (38.89%)
- Zoology (36.11%)
- Evolutionary biology (27.78%)
