Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Gene

David G. Hall mainly focuses on Diaphorina citri, Botany, Horticulture, Hemiptera and Citrus greening disease. David G. Hall has included themes like Psylloidea, Homoptera, PEST analysis, Tamarixia radiata and Rutaceae in his Diaphorina citri study. In the subject of general Botany, his work in Nymph and Isaria fumosorosea is often linked to Green color, Adhesive materials and Cordycipitaceae, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

David G. Hall interconnects Trapping and Significant difference in the investigation of issues within Horticulture. The concepts of his Hemiptera study are interwoven with issues in Entomopathogenic fungus and Microbiology, Hypha. His Citrus greening disease research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Citrus × sinensis and Host, Olfactometer.

His most cited work include:

  • Complete Genome Sequence of Citrus Huanglongbing Bacterium, ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus’ Obtained Through Metagenomics (326 citations)
  • Asian citrus psyllid, Diaphorina citri, vector of citrus huanglongbing disease (240 citations)
  • Estimating the relative abundance of flush shoots in citrus with implications on monitoring insects associated with flush (119 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Diaphorina citri, Botany, Horticulture, Hemiptera and Citrus greening disease. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including PEST analysis, Nymph, Host and Orange. His study focuses on the intersection of Nymph and fields such as Honeydew with connections in the field of Ultrastructure.

Botany is closely attributed to Citrus × sinensis in his research. His research integrates issues of Phloem, Microbiology and Stylet in his study of Hemiptera. His research investigates the link between Citrus greening disease and topics such as Candidatus Liberibacter that cross with problems in Germplasm.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Diaphorina citri (61.11%)
  • Botany (50.56%)
  • Horticulture (36.67%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2020)?

  • Diaphorina citri (61.11%)
  • Hemiptera (36.11%)
  • Botany (50.56%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Diaphorina citri, Hemiptera, Botany, Horticulture and Orange. He works in the field of Diaphorina citri, namely Citrus greening disease. His research in Hemiptera focuses on subjects like PEST analysis, which are connected to Host plants.

His Diaprepes abbreviatus study in the realm of Botany connects with subjects such as Plastic film. His study in Horticulture is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Biological dispersal and Morphometrics. His research investigates the connection between Orange and topics such as Rutaceae that intersect with problems in Genetic traits.

Between 2015 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Acquisition, Replication and Inoculation of Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus following Various Acquisition Periods on Huanglongbing-Infected Citrus by Nymphs and Adults of the Asian Citrus Psyllid. (54 citations)
  • Protein interaction networks at the host–microbe interface in Diaphorina citri, the insect vector of the citrus greening pathogen (34 citations)
  • Conventional Citrus of Some Scion/Rootstock Combinations Show Field Tolerance under High Huanglongbing Disease Pressure (27 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Gene

David G. Hall spends much of his time researching Diaphorina citri, Botany, Citrus greening disease, Hemiptera and Microbiology. His research in Diaphorina citri tackles topics such as Veterinary medicine which are related to areas like Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus. David G. Hall has researched Botany in several fields, including Arthropod mouthparts and Horticulture.

His research investigates the connection with Citrus greening disease and areas like Electrical penetration graph which intersect with concerns in Stylet and Instar. His work carried out in the field of Hemiptera brings together such families of science as Plant species and Colonization. His Microbiology research incorporates elements of Proteome, Insect, Host and Hemolymph.
