2009 - Fellow of the American Phytopathological Society

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Botany
  • Genetics

Cesare Gessler mainly investigates Genetics, Venturia inaequalis, Apple scab, Malus and Malus floribunda. His Genetics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as RAPD and Amplified fragment length polymorphism. The study incorporates disciplines such as Biotechnology and Gene in addition to Apple scab.

His research on Malus also deals with topics like

  • Quantitative trait locus that connect with fields like Cultivar, Botany, Genotype, Rosaceae and Proton-transfer-reaction mass spectrometry,
  • Plant disease resistance that intertwine with fields like Biological pest control, Fungicide, Agronomy and Disease management. As part of the same scientific family, he usually focuses on Malus floribunda, concentrating on Gene family and intersecting with Gene cluster and Cladosporium. The concepts of his Microsatellite study are interwoven with issues in Molecular marker, Genetic diversity, Genome, Locus and Gene mapping.

His most cited work include:

  • Development and characterisation of 140 new microsatellites in apple (Malus x domestica Borkh.) (419 citations)
  • Simple sequence repeats for the genetic analysis of apple (295 citations)
  • Microsatellite markers spanning the apple ( Malus x domestica Borkh.) genome (278 citations)

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

Cesare Gessler mainly focuses on Botany, Genetics, Horticulture, Venturia inaequalis and Apple scab. His research investigates the connection between Botany and topics such as Erwinia that intersect with problems in PEAR. His is involved in several facets of Genetics study, as is seen by his studies on Gene, Locus, Genetic marker, Microsatellite and Quantitative trait locus.

His Horticulture study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cisgenesis and Agronomy. His studies deal with areas such as Malus, Genetically modified organism and Gene mapping as well as Venturia inaequalis. His research integrates issues of Plant disease resistance, Fire blight, Biotechnology and Positional cloning in his study of Malus.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (36.43%)
  • Genetics (27.88%)
  • Horticulture (24.16%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2017)?

  • Botany (36.43%)
  • Horticulture (24.16%)
  • Fire blight (10.41%)

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

His main research concerns Botany, Horticulture, Fire blight, Malus and Genetics. The Botany study combines topics in areas such as Inoculation, Host and Gene. His research investigates the connection between Horticulture and topics such as Cisgenesis that intersect with issues in Apple scab, Genetically modified organism, Transformation and Selectable marker.

Cesare Gessler focuses mostly in the field of Fire blight, narrowing it down to matters related to Resistance and, in some cases, Line. His Malus study combines topics in areas such as Plant disease resistance, Positional cloning, Biotechnology, Venturia inaequalis and Candidate gene. His Amplified fragment length polymorphism research extends to Genetics, which is thematically connected.

Between 2010 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • Plasmopara viticola: a review of knowledge on downy mildew of grapevine and effective disease management (184 citations)
  • The development of a cisgenic apple plant (93 citations)
  • Bayesian QTL analyses using pedigreed families of an outcrossing species, with application to fruit firmness in apple (89 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Botany
  • Genetics

His primary areas of study are Gene, Botany, Genetics, Malus and Venturia inaequalis. His Botany research includes themes of Cisgenesis, Fire blight and Horticulture. His Genetics research integrates issues from Outcrossing and Bacterial disease.

His Malus research incorporates elements of Selection, Bayesian probability, Genotype and Confidence interval. He combines subjects such as Biotechnology and Apple scab with his study of Venturia inaequalis. While the research belongs to areas of Cultivar, he spends his time largely on the problem of Plant disease resistance, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Fungicide, Oomycete, Disease management and Agronomy.
