What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
His scientific interests lie mostly in Agronomy, Toxicology, Sitophilus, Bioassay and Curculionidae.
His Agronomy study incorporates themes from PEST analysis and Horticulture.
His studies in Toxicology integrate themes in fields like Liposcelis bostrychophila, Confused flour beetle, Larva and Spinosad.
His Confused flour beetle research incorporates themes from Oryzaephilus surinamensis and Red flour beetle.
Christos G. Athanassiou interconnects Beauveria bassiana, Bassiana, Hyphomycetes and Metarhizium anisopliae in the investigation of issues within Bioassay.
In his study, Fungus is strongly linked to Weevil, which falls under the umbrella field of Curculionidae.
His most cited work include:
- A survey of aphid parasitoids (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Aphidiinae) of Southeastern Europe and their aphid-plant associations (162 citations)
- Insecticidal efficacy of diatomaceous earth against Sitophilus oryzae (L.) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae) and Tribolium confusum du Val (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) on stored wheat: influence of dose rate, temperature and exposure interval (145 citations)
- Factors affecting the insecticidal efficacy of the diatomaceous earth formulation SilicoSec against adults and larvae of the confused flour beetle, Tribolium confusum DuVal (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) (135 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Christos G. Athanassiou mainly focuses on Toxicology, Sitophilus, Agronomy, Bioassay and Larva.
His Toxicology research includes elements of Prostephanus truncatus, Liposcelis bostrychophila, Confused flour beetle and Spinosad.
His research integrates issues of Pesticide and Curculionidae in his study of Sitophilus.
Christos G. Athanassiou combines subjects such as PEST analysis, Bostrichidae and Horticulture with his study of Agronomy.
The Horticulture study combines topics in areas such as Stored grain and Pheromone, Botany.
His research investigates the connection with Larva and areas like Lepidoptera genitalia which intersect with concerns in Zoology.
He most often published in these fields:
- Toxicology (52.35%)
- Sitophilus (38.87%)
- Agronomy (30.09%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?
- Toxicology (52.35%)
- Larva (24.45%)
- Sitophilus (38.87%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Christos G. Athanassiou mainly investigates Toxicology, Larva, Sitophilus, Bioassay and Phosphine.
His Toxicology study incorporates themes from Lasioderma serricorne, PEST analysis, Pyralidae, Methoprene and Alphitobius diaperinus.
Christos G. Athanassiou has researched Larva in several fields, including Lepidoptera genitalia and Insect.
His Sitophilus research incorporates themes from Prostephanus truncatus and Resistance.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Culex pipiens and Animal science in addition to Bioassay.
His research investigates the link between Maize weevil and topics such as Competition that cross with problems in Agronomy and Grain damage.
Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Biology and Control of the Khapra Beetle, Trogoderma granarium, a Major Quarantine Threat to Global Food Security (34 citations)
- Detection of phosphine resistance in major stored-product insects in Greece and evaluation of a field resistance test kit (26 citations)
- Influence of different non-grain commodities on the population growth of Trogoderma granarium Everts (Coleoptera: Dermestidae) (19 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
Christos G. Athanassiou spends much of his time researching Toxicology, Sitophilus, Prostephanus truncatus, Phosphine and Bioassay.
His Toxicology research integrates issues from Lasioderma serricorne, Susceptible individual and Ephestia elutella.
His study on Maize weevil, Oryzaephilus surinamensis and Rice weevil is often connected to Offspring as part of broader study in Sitophilus.
His Maize weevil research is under the purview of Agronomy.
His work deals with themes such as Cypermethrin, Stored grain and Spinosad, which intersect with Bioassay.
He works mostly in the field of Red flour beetle, limiting it down to topics relating to Courtship and, in certain cases, PEST analysis, as a part of the same area of interest.
