Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

Her main research concerns Breed, Animal science, Veterinary medicine, Heat tolerance and Coat. Her Breed research includes themes of Morning, Helminths, Feces and Crossbreed. Concepta McManus interconnects Pasture and Heritability in the investigation of issues within Animal science.

Concepta McManus has included themes like Dairy cattle, Litter, Genetic correlation and Weaning in her Heritability study. Her work on Tick as part of her general Veterinary medicine study is frequently connected to Parasitemia, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. Her Coat research incorporates elements of Climatic adaptation, Reflectivity, Phenotypic trait and Withers.

Her most cited work include:

  • Heat tolerance in Brazilian sheep: physiological and blood parameters. (146 citations)
  • Heat tolerance in naturalized Brazilian cattle breeds (92 citations)
  • Effects of condensed tannin from Acacia mearnsii on sheep infected naturally with gastrointestinal helminthes (80 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Animal science, Breed, Veterinary medicine, Crossbreed and Heritability. Concepta McManus has researched Animal science in several fields, including Weight gain and Pasture. Concepta McManus studied Breed and Genetic diversity that intersect with Population structure.

Concepta McManus performs integrative study on Veterinary medicine and Heat tolerance. The concepts of her Heritability study are interwoven with issues in Biotechnology, Ice calving, Genetic correlation and Selection. Her Hay research integrates issues from Dry matter and Forage.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Animal science (50.14%)
  • Breed (27.25%)
  • Veterinary medicine (21.25%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Animal science (50.14%)
  • Breed (27.25%)
  • Agricultural science (5.18%)

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

Concepta McManus mostly deals with Animal science, Breed, Agricultural science, Fatty acid and Genetic diversity. Her study in Animal science is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Ruminant and Forage. Her studies in Breed integrate themes in fields like Evolutionary biology, Selection, Inbreeding, Crossbreed and Genotype.

Her work carried out in the field of Selection brings together such families of science as Genetics and Ecology. Her studies in Agricultural science integrate themes in fields like Productivity, Agriculture, Herd and Livestock. Concepta McManus focuses mostly in the field of Genetic diversity, narrowing it down to topics relating to Population structure and, in certain cases, Zoology.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Genome-wide search for signatures of selection in three major Brazilian locally adapted sheep breeds (26 citations)
  • Landscape-fragmentation change due to recent agricultural expansion in the Brazilian Savanna, Western Bahia, Brazil (24 citations)
  • Deforestation analysis in protected areas and scenario simulation for structural corridors in the agricultural frontier of Western Bahia, Brazil (16 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Internal medicine
  • Genetics

Her main research concerns Animal science, Ecology, Cottonseed, Selection and Veterinary medicine. Her Animal science research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Ruminant and Forage, Botany. In the subject of general Ecology, her work in Agriculture, Morada Nova sheep and Livestock is often linked to Heat index and Statistical analysis, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

Her Cottonseed research also works with subjects such as

  • Lactation which is related to area like Sperm, Andrology, Fetus and Gestation,
  • Gossypol which is related to area like Animal feed and Weaning. She combines subjects such as Fertility, Biotechnology, Linkage disequilibrium, Milk production and Local adaptation with her study of Selection. Her Veterinary medicine study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Population structure, Inbreeding and Sire.
