Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Genetics

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Outcrossing, Selfing, Range and Effective selfing model. All of his Ecology and Pollination, Local adaptation, Invasive species and Lythrum salicaria investigations are sub-components of the entire Ecology study. Christopher G. Eckert interconnects Inbreeding depression and Mating in the investigation of issues within Outcrossing.

Mating system is the focus of his Mating research. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Effective population size and Genetic variation. As part of one scientific family, Christopher G. Eckert deals mainly with the area of Natural selection, narrowing it down to issues related to the Evolutionary biology, and often Genetics and Genetic diversity.

His most cited work include:

  • Genetic variation across species' geographical ranges: the central-marginal hypothesis and beyond (1039 citations)
  • The Evolutionary Enigma of Mixed Mating Systems in Plants: Occurrence, Theoretical Explanations, and Empirical Evidence (788 citations)
  • Severely reduced sexual reproduction in northern populations of a clonal plant, Decodonverticillatus (Lythraceae) (481 citations)

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

Christopher G. Eckert mainly investigates Ecology, Mating system, Outcrossing, Range and Selfing. Within one scientific family, Christopher G. Eckert focuses on topics pertaining to Biological dispersal under Ecology, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Propagule. The subject of his Mating system research is within the realm of Mating.

His research integrates issues of Zoology and Small population size in his study of Outcrossing. His studies in Range integrate themes in fields like Taxon, Population density, Geographic range limit and Species distribution. His studies deal with areas such as Evolutionary biology, Botany, Pollination, Pollinator and Inbreeding depression as well as Selfing.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (57.55%)
  • Mating system (31.13%)
  • Outcrossing (27.36%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2020)?

  • Ecology (57.55%)
  • Range (26.42%)
  • Taxon (5.66%)

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

Christopher G. Eckert focuses on Ecology, Range, Taxon, Context and Evolutionary biology. His study involves Biodiversity, Rhinanthus minor, Phenology, Mating system and Adaptation, a branch of Ecology. Christopher G. Eckert studied Mating system and Biogeography that intersect with Biome, Plant Dispersal and Tropics.

Christopher G. Eckert has researched Range in several fields, including Habitat and Local adaptation. The concepts of his Evolutionary biology study are interwoven with issues in Genetic structure, Effective population size, Genetic variation, Population genetics and Selfing. The Selfing study combines topics in areas such as Aquilegia canadensis, Inbreeding depression, Outcrossing and Genetic diversity.

Between 2015 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Global biogeography of mating system variation in seed plants. (42 citations)
  • Ecological and evolutionary consequences of sexual and clonal reproduction in aquatic plants (33 citations)
  • Causes of maladaptation (27 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Genetics

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Adaptation, Natural selection, Maladaptation and Mating system. Christopher G. Eckert applies his multidisciplinary studies on Ecology and Latitude in his research. Christopher G. Eckert combines subjects such as Evolutionary dynamics and Environmental change with his study of Natural selection.

His Abundance research extends to Maladaptation, which is thematically connected. His Mating system study incorporates themes from Evolutionary ecology, Propagule, Biological dispersal, Metapopulation and Phenotypic plasticity.
