His primary scientific interests are in Microbiology, Quorum sensing, Bacteria, Homoserine and Biofilm.
The various areas that Clay Fuqua examines in his Microbiology study include Peptidoglycan, Flagellum, Alphaproteobacteria and Pilus.
As part of one scientific family, Clay Fuqua deals mainly with the area of Bacteria, narrowing it down to issues related to the Bacterial adhesin, and often Rhizosphere.
Clay Fuqua has included themes like N-Acyl homoserine lactone, Acyl-Homoserine Lactones, Bacterial growth and Autoinducer in his Homoserine study.
Within one scientific family, he focuses on topics pertaining to Regulon under Autoinducer, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Operon and Ti plasmid.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Pseudomonas aureofaciens, Mutant, Multicellular organism, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Motility.
His most cited work include:
- Bacterial competition: surviving and thriving in the microbial jungle (1316 citations)
- Regulation of Gene Expression by Cell-to-Cell Communication: Acyl-Homoserine Lactone Quorum Sensing (1090 citations)
- Census and consensus in bacterial ecosystems: the LuxR-LuxI family of quorum-sensing transcriptional regulators. (1017 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
His scientific interests lie mostly in Microbiology, Bacteria, Quorum sensing, Biofilm and Genetics.
In his study, Species diversity is inextricably linked to Host, which falls within the broad field of Microbiology.
His work on Homoserine as part of general Quorum sensing study is frequently linked to Roseobacter, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.
His research integrates issues of N-Acyl homoserine lactone, Vibrio, Acyl-Homoserine Lactones and Autoinducer in his study of Homoserine.
In his research, Cell biology and Regulator is intimately related to Mutant, which falls under the overarching field of Biofilm.
His Plasmid research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Promoter, Transcription, DNA-binding protein and Virulence.

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Biochemistry, Mutant, Biofilm, Plasmid and Cell biology.
His Mutant research incorporates elements of Bacterial adhesin and Regulatory Pathway.
As a part of the same scientific study, Clay Fuqua usually deals with the Plasmid, concentrating on Virulence and frequently concerns with Horizontal gene transfer.
His Horizontal gene transfer study combines topics in areas such as Quorum sensing, Promoter and Bacterial outer membrane.
His Cell biology research integrates issues from Response regulator and Flagellum.
His work in Function addresses subjects such as Metabolism, which are connected to disciplines such as Bacteria.
Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Evolution of the Insertion-Deletion Mutation Rate Across the Tree of Life (51 citations)
- Diffusion of Bacterial Cells in Porous Media (27 citations)
- Ecological and evolutionary dynamics of a model facultative pathogen: Agrobacterium and crown gall disease of plants. (22 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
Biochemistry, Biofilm, Polyamine, Spermidine and Mutant are his primary areas of study.
He frequently studies issues relating to Function and Biochemistry.
His Biofilm research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Plasmid, Flagellum, Horizontal gene transfer and Bacterial outer membrane.
He has researched Polyamine in several fields, including Norspermidine, Moiety and Acetylation.
His Spermidine study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as EIF5A, Putrescine, Ornithine and Ornithine decarboxylase.
His work in the fields of Regulon and Operon overlaps with other areas such as Manganese.
