Christopher Preston

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Botany
• Gene
• Ecology

Christopher Preston mainly focuses on Agronomy, Lolium rigidum, Glyphosate, Weed and Botany. His study in Agronomy concentrates on Weed control, Resistance, Seedling, Minimum tillage and Tillage. His Resistance research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Conyza canadensis, Diclofop-methyl, Detoxification and Herbicide resistance.

His studies deal with areas such as Cross-resistance, Simazine and Acetolactate synthase as well as Lolium rigidum. His work carried out in the field of Glyphosate brings together such families of science as Pesticide and Gene, Chromosomal translocation. His work in Botany covers topics such as Pesticide resistance which are related to areas like Pollination and Canola.

His most cited work include:

• Gene amplification confers glyphosate resistance in Amaranthus palmeri (465 citations)
• Evolved resistance to glyphosate in rigid ryegrass (Lolium rigidum) in Australia. (410 citations)
• Pollen-mediated movement of herbicide resistance between commercial canola fields (339 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Agronomy, Weed, Botany, Lolium rigidum and Resistance. Agronomy is a component of his Weed control, Glyphosate, Herbicide resistance, Trifluralin and Crop studies. Christopher Preston interconnects Gene duplication and Echinochloa in the investigation of issues within Glyphosate.

His work investigates the relationship between Weed and topics such as Germination that intersect with problems in Seedling. His Botany research incorporates elements of Pesticide resistance, Pesticide, Paraquat and Gene. His Lolium rigidum research integrates issues from Cross-resistance, Lolium and Metabolism.

He most often published in these fields:

• Agronomy (50.60%)
• Weed (35.06%)
• Botany (29.48%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

• Agronomy (50.60%)
• Resistance (24.70%)
• Weed (35.06%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Agronomy, Resistance, Weed, Glyphosate and Gene. His work in Lolium rigidum, Cultivar, Weed control and Herbicide resistant is related to Agronomy. Christopher Preston works mostly in the field of Resistance, limiting it down to concerns involving Genetic diversity and, occasionally, Ecology and Range.

Christopher Preston has researched Weed in several fields, including Yield and Acetolactate synthase. The Glyphosate study combines topics in areas such as Susceptible individual, Amplified fragment length polymorphism, Botany, Echinochloa and Gene duplication. His work in the fields of Gene, such as Mutation and Chromosomal translocation, overlaps with other areas such as Tropism.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• EPSPS gene amplification conferring resistance to glyphosate in windmill grass (Chloris truncata) in Australia. (33 citations)
• The power and potential of genomics in weed biology and management (31 citations)
• Target-site mutations conferring resistance to glyphosate in feathertop Rhodes grass (Chloris virgata) populations in Australia. (24 citations)

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

• Botany
• Gene
• Ecology

His scientific interests lie mostly in Resistance, Gene, Agronomy, Cross-resistance and Lolium rigidum. His Resistance study incorporates themes from Glyphosate and Botany. As a member of one scientific family, Christopher Preston mostly works in the field of Glyphosate, focusing on Gene duplication and, on occasion, Chloris truncata and Real-time polymerase chain reaction.

His Weed study in the realm of Botany interacts with subjects such as Target site. In his study, Prosulfocarb, Thiocarbamates, Chloroacetamide and Very long chain fatty acid is strongly linked to Thiocarbamate, which falls under the umbrella field of Cross-resistance. Christopher Preston studied Lolium rigidum and Trifluralin that intersect with Eleusine indica, Dinitroaniline, Mutation and Point mutation.
