David E. L. Cooke

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Botany
• Gene
• Genetics

David E. L. Cooke spends much of his time researching Phytophthora, Botany, Phytophthora infestans, Genetics and Phytophthora plurivora. His Phytophthora study incorporates themes from Taxon, Phytophthora fragariae, Root rot and Internal transcribed spacer. His studies deal with areas such as Phytophthora citricola and Genetic marker as well as Botany.

His Phytophthora citricola research integrates issues from Phytophthora cryptogea and Phytophthora cambivora. His studies in Phytophthora infestans integrate themes in fields like Biotechnology, Oomycete, Population genetics and Genomics. His work investigates the relationship between Phytophthora plurivora and topics such as Fagaceae that intersect with problems in Ilex aquifolium, Fagus sylvatica, Phytophthora pseudosyringae, Beech and Quercus robur.

His most cited work include:

• A molecular phylogeny of Phytophthora and related oomycetes. (779 citations)
• Origin of a new Phytophthora pathogen through interspecific hybridization (310 citations)
• Genome Analyses of an Aggressive and Invasive Lineage of the Irish Potato Famine Pathogen (306 citations)

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

David E. L. Cooke mainly investigates Phytophthora, Botany, Phytophthora infestans, Blight and Genetics. His Phytophthora study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Phylogenetic tree, Internal transcribed spacer, Taxon, Sporangium and Taxonomy. The study incorporates disciplines such as Phytophthora cryptogea, Amplified fragment length polymorphism, Horticulture, Phytophthora citricola and Ribosomal DNA in addition to Botany.

The concepts of his Phytophthora citricola study are interwoven with issues in Phytophthora cambivora and Phytophthora plurivora. The Phytophthora infestans study combines topics in areas such as Genotype, Haplotype, Metalaxyl and Mating type. David E. L. Cooke combines subjects such as Plant disease resistance, Outbreak, Oomycete and DNA profiling with his study of Blight.

He most often published in these fields:

• Phytophthora (44.35%)
• Botany (43.55%)
• Phytophthora infestans (33.87%)

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

• Phytophthora infestans (33.87%)
• Blight (23.39%)
• Genotype (14.52%)

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

David E. L. Cooke mostly deals with Phytophthora infestans, Blight, Genotype, Ecology and Phytophthora. His study on Phytophthora infestans is covered under Genetics. His research on Blight concerns the broader Botany.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Clade and Lineage. As part of one scientific family, David E. L. Cooke deals mainly with the area of Ecology, narrowing it down to issues related to the Outbreak, and often Woodland, Crop and Sporangium. He has researched Phytophthora in several fields, including Oomycete and Genus.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• Insights into evolving global populations of Phytophthora infestans via new complementary mtDNA haplotype markers and nuclear SSRs. (18 citations)
• Large sub-clonal variation in Phytophthora infestans from recent severe late blight epidemics in India (13 citations)
• Phytophthora betacei, a new species within Phytophthora clade 1c causing late blight on Solanum betaceum in Colombia (7 citations)

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

• Botany
• Gene
• Genetics

His primary scientific interests are in Phytophthora infestans, Blight, Genotype, Metalaxyl and Fungicide. His Phytophthora infestans research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Phylogeography and Genetic diversity. His Genetic diversity study combines topics in areas such as Evolutionary biology and Haplotype.

His Blight study results in a more complete grasp of Botany. He focuses mostly in the field of Metalaxyl, narrowing it down to topics relating to Mating type and, in certain cases, Virulence, Microsatellite, Zoology and Sexual reproduction. His Fungicide research includes themes of Genetics, Pathogen, Population genetics, Phytosanitary certification and Genetic structure.
