Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Bacteria

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Fusarium oxysporum, Microbiology, Fusarium, Fusarium wilt and Botany. His study in Fusarium oxysporum is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Inoculation, Fungi imperfecti, Biological pest control and Agronomy. His Fungi imperfecti study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Forestry and Pathogenicity.

Many of his research projects under Microbiology are closely connected to Antagonism with Antagonism, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His work on Fusarium is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Pseudomonas fluorescens. His Botany research incorporates elements of Rhizosphere and Bacteria.

His most cited work include:

  • The rhizosphere: a playground and battlefield for soilborne pathogens and beneficial microorganisms (891 citations)
  • Soil health through soil disease suppression: Which strategy from descriptors to indicators? (375 citations)
  • Fusarium oxysporum and its biocontrol (354 citations)

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

Claude Alabouvette mostly deals with Fusarium oxysporum, Botany, Fusarium, Microbiology and Fungi imperfecti. His Fusarium oxysporum research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Inoculation and Biological pest control. His Rhizosphere research extends to Botany, which is thematically connected.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Ribosomal DNA and Pseudomonas. The various areas that Claude Alabouvette examines in his Microbiology study include Pseudomonas fluorescens and Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici. In Fungi imperfecti, he works on issues like Pseudomonadaceae, which are connected to Pseudomonadales, Siderophore and Pseudomonas putida.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Fusarium oxysporum (49.68%)
  • Botany (32.90%)
  • Fusarium (22.58%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2020)?

  • Botany (32.90%)
  • Fusarium oxysporum (49.68%)
  • Cave (9.68%)

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

Claude Alabouvette mainly focuses on Botany, Fusarium oxysporum, Cave, Ecology and Biological pest control. His Botany research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Rhizosphere, Pathogenicity and Horticulture. He has included themes like Inoculation, Fusarium and Microbiology in his Fusarium oxysporum study.

Claude Alabouvette combines subjects such as Fusarium solani and Fungus with his study of Cave. His Ecology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Soil fungi and Aerobiology. He has researched Biological pest control in several fields, including Ornamental plant, Integrated pest management, Biotechnology, Trichoderma and Pesticide.

Between 2007 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • The rhizosphere: a playground and battlefield for soilborne pathogens and beneficial microorganisms (891 citations)
  • Microbiological control of soil‐borne phytopathogenic fungi with special emphasis on wilt‐inducing Fusarium oxysporum (204 citations)
  • The microbiology of Lascaux Cave (126 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Bacteria

His scientific interests lie mostly in Cave, Ecology, Fusarium oxysporum, Microbiology and Botany. The Ecology study combines topics in areas such as Soil fungi, Fusarium solani and Fungus. His Fusarium oxysporum research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Biotechnology, Fusarium, Ornamental plant and Biological pest control.

Claude Alabouvette works mostly in the field of Fusarium, limiting it down to concerns involving Soil water and, occasionally, Terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism. Claude Alabouvette mostly deals with Fungi imperfecti in his studies of Microbiology. His research investigates the connection with Botany and areas like Microorganism which intersect with concerns in Phyllosphere, Rhizosphere and Bulk soil.
