Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Gene

Christian Sturmbauer mainly focuses on Cichlid, Ecology, Lamprologini, Adaptive radiation and Evolutionary biology. Christian Sturmbauer is interested in Tropheus, which is a field of Cichlid. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Phylogeography and Molecular phylogenetics.

His biological study deals with issues like Zoology, which deal with fields such as Ectodini and Endemism. He interconnects Species richness, Mouthbrooder, Polyphyly and Haplochromine in the investigation of issues within Adaptive radiation. His Evolutionary biology research also works with subjects such as

  • Coalescent theory and Mitochondrial DNA most often made with reference to Introgression,
  • Phylogenetic tree which connect with Biogeography and Phylogenetics.

His most cited work include:

  • Genetic divergence, speciation and morphological stasis in a lineage of African cichlid fishes. (293 citations)
  • Phylogeny of the Lake Tanganyika Cichlid Species Flock and Its Relationship to the Central and East African Haplochromine Cichlid Fish Faunas (231 citations)
  • Lake Level Fluctuations Synchronize Genetic Divergences of Cichlid Fishes in African Lakes (201 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Cichlid, Ecology, Zoology, Adaptive radiation and Evolutionary biology. His studies deal with areas such as Lamprologini, Lineage and Tropheus moorii as well as Cichlid. His studies in Ecology integrate themes in fields like Biological dispersal and Phylogeography, Phylogenetics, Phylogenetic tree.

The Zoology study combines topics in areas such as Sister group, Endemism, Speciation and Monophyly. His work is dedicated to discovering how Adaptive radiation, Adaptation are connected with Pharyngeal jaw and other disciplines. His research in Evolutionary biology intersects with topics in Genetics, Morphology, Tribe, Introgression and Coalescent theory.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Cichlid (63.27%)
  • Ecology (57.14%)
  • Zoology (33.33%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Cichlid (63.27%)
  • Evolutionary biology (23.81%)
  • Adaptive radiation (25.85%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Cichlid, Evolutionary biology, Adaptive radiation, Ecology and Zoology. His study in Cichlid focuses on Haplochromine in particular. His Evolutionary biology research incorporates themes from Lineage, Phylogenetic tree, Larva, Morphology and DNA sequencing.

As a part of the same scientific study, he usually deals with the Lineage, concentrating on Tropheus moorii and frequently concerns with Genome and Phenotypic plasticity. He usually deals with Ecology and limits it to topics linked to Phylogenetics and Biodiversity. His Zoology study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Tropheus.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Phylogenomics uncovers early hybridization and adaptive loci shaping the radiation of Lake Tanganyika cichlid fishes (73 citations)
  • Hidden biodiversity in an ancient lake: phylogenetic congruence between Lake Tanganyika tropheine cichlids and their monogenean flatworm parasites (38 citations)
  • The Role of Alternative Splicing and Differential Gene Expression in Cichlid Adaptive Radiation. (24 citations)

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

  • Genus
  • Ecology
  • Gene

Christian Sturmbauer spends much of his time researching Cichlid, Adaptive radiation, Zoology, Ecology and Speciation. The concepts of his Cichlid study are interwoven with issues in Evolutionary biology, Sexual selection, Genetics, Lineage and Phylogeography. His work carried out in the field of Lineage brings together such families of science as Genetic Speciation, Tropheus moorii, Sympatric speciation and Phenotypic plasticity.

The various areas that Christian Sturmbauer examines in his Zoology study include Biodiversity, Dominance, Tropheus and Vertebrate. His Ecology study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Phylogenetics. His studies examine the connections between Speciation and genetics, as well as such issues in Phylogenetic tree, with regards to Introgression, Haplochromine and Biodiversity hotspot.
