Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Ecology
  • Genetics

His primary areas of study are Heliconius, Evolutionary biology, Heliconius melpomene, Ecology and Genetics. His Heliconius research incorporates themes from Natural selection and Coalescent theory. Chris D. Jiggins has researched Evolutionary biology in several fields, including Ecological speciation, Sympatric speciation, Sympatry, Genomics and Reproductive isolation.

Specifically, his work in Heliconius melpomene is concerned with the study of Heliconius cydno. As a member of one scientific family, Chris D. Jiggins mostly works in the field of Heliconius cydno, focusing on Assortative mating and, on occasion, Sexual selection. Many of his research projects under Ecology are closely connected to Social signaling with Social signaling, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

His most cited work include:

  • Hybridization and speciation (1223 citations)
  • Butterfly genome reveals promiscuous exchange of mimicry adaptations among species (875 citations)
  • Butterfly genome reveals promiscuous exchange of mimicry adaptations among species (875 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Heliconius, Evolutionary biology, Ecology, Heliconius melpomene and Genetics. His research integrates issues of Sympatric speciation and Locus in his study of Heliconius. Chris D. Jiggins combines subjects such as Genome, Wing, Introgression and Reproductive isolation with his study of Evolutionary biology.

His studies deal with areas such as Zoology, Parapatric speciation and Hybrid zone as well as Ecology. His Heliconius melpomene research focuses on subjects like Pheromone, which are linked to Sex pheromone. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Natural selection and Genetics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Heliconius (90.58%)
  • Evolutionary biology (73.56%)
  • Ecology (34.95%)

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

  • Heliconius (90.58%)
  • Evolutionary biology (73.56%)
  • Reproductive isolation (18.84%)

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

Chris D. Jiggins mostly deals with Heliconius, Evolutionary biology, Reproductive isolation, Heliconius melpomene and Genome. His Heliconius research is under the purview of Mimicry. His Evolutionary biology study combines topics in areas such as Quantitative trait locus, Genetic architecture, Butterfly and Wing.

His Heliconius melpomene study is associated with Genetics. His Genome research integrates issues from Phylogenetic tree, Gene flow, Haplotype and Sequence assembly. His biological study deals with issues like Preference, which deal with fields such as Genetic Speciation and Sympatry.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Recombination rate variation shapes barriers to introgression across butterfly genomes. (111 citations)
  • Genomic architecture and introgression shape a butterfly radiation (109 citations)
  • Genetic dissection of assortative mating behavior (50 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Ecology
  • Genetics

Chris D. Jiggins focuses on Evolutionary biology, Heliconius, Gene flow, Natural selection and Butterfly. His Evolutionary biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Müllerian mimicry, Reproductive isolation, Locus, Genetic variation and Haplotype. He studies Heliconius, focusing on Heliconius melpomene in particular.

His Gene flow research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Genome, Genetic algorithm, Phylogenetic tree and Introgression. The Natural selection study combines topics in areas such as Mimicry and Wing. His study with Butterfly involves better knowledge in Ecology.
