In his research on the topic of RAPD, Cultivar and Apium graveolens is strongly related with Chemotaxonomy. Carlos F. Quiros works mostly in the field of Brassica oleracea, limiting it down to topics relating to Gene family and, in certain cases, Bacterial artificial chromosome, Pseudogene and clone, as a part of the same area of interest. His study in the field of Glucosinolate, Lepidium and Apium also crosses realms of Potyviridae.

Between 1998 and 2012, his most popular works were:

  • Sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP), a new marker system based on a simple PCR reaction: its application to mapping and gene tagging in Brassica (1122 citations)

  • Genetic diversity of oilseed Brassica napus inbred lines based on sequence‐related amplified polymorphism and its relation to hybrid performance (139 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • DNA

His scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, Arabidopsis, Gene, Brassica oleracea and Arabidopsis thaliana. His work deals with themes such as Genetic diversity and Heterosis, which intersect with Genetics. His studies deal with areas such as Brassica and Genome as well as Arabidopsis.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Amplified fragment length polymorphism, Major gene, Gene cluster, Exon and Candidate gene in addition to Brassica oleracea. His Arabidopsis thaliana study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Botany, Comparative genomics, Glucosinolate and Dioxygenase. His Sequence-related amplified polymorphism study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as GenBank, Complementary DNA, Polymerase chain reaction and Brassica rapa.
