  • 2008 - Fellow of the American Phytopathological Society

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Horticulture
  • Genetics

His primary areas of study are Botany, Uncinula necator, Powdery mildew, Spore and Fungicide. In general Botany study, his work on Ascospore, Fusarium and Turgor pressure often relates to the realm of Ascus, thereby connecting several areas of interest. His studies in Uncinula necator integrate themes in fields like Erysiphe necator and Ampelomyces quisqualis.

His work carried out in the field of Powdery mildew brings together such families of science as Vineyard and Ecology, Biological pest control, Mite. His Spore study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Conidium. As part of one scientific family, David M. Gadoury deals mainly with the area of Fungicide, narrowing it down to issues related to the Cultivar, and often Lenticel, Plasmopara viticola, Downy mildew, Pedicel and Berry.

His most cited work include:

  • Physiological and environmental aspects of ascospore discharge in Gibberella zeae (anamorph Fusarium graminearum) (134 citations)
  • Parasitic and Biological Fitness of Venturia inaequalis: Relationship to Disease Management Strategies (125 citations)
  • Grapevine powdery mildew (Erysiphe necator): a fascinating system for the study of the biology, ecology and epidemiology of an obligate biotroph. (117 citations)

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

David M. Gadoury mostly deals with Botany, Powdery mildew, Horticulture, Uncinula necator and Spore. Botany is closely attributed to Inoculation in his work. As a part of the same scientific study, David M. Gadoury usually deals with the Powdery mildew, concentrating on Fungicide and frequently concerns with Growing season.

His Horticulture research incorporates themes from Overwintering and Phenology. His Uncinula necator study incorporates themes from Ascocarp, Botrytis cinerea, Appressorium, Bark and Mite. His studies deal with areas such as Leaf wetness, Heterothallic and Darkness as well as Spore.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (57.50%)
  • Powdery mildew (48.33%)
  • Horticulture (41.67%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Powdery mildew (48.33%)
  • Horticulture (41.67%)
  • Botany (57.50%)

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

David M. Gadoury mainly focuses on Powdery mildew, Horticulture, Botany, Cultivar and Plant disease resistance. The Powdery mildew study combines topics in areas such as Genetics, Fungicide and Genotype. His Horticulture research focuses on Agronomy and how it relates to Berry and Disease cluster.

His Botany and Spore and Uncinula necator investigations all form part of his Botany research activities. The concepts of his Cultivar study are interwoven with issues in Phenology, Germination and Genetic diversity. His Plant disease resistance study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Haustorium and Pathogen, Pathosystem.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Grapevine powdery mildew (Erysiphe necator): a fascinating system for the study of the biology, ecology and epidemiology of an obligate biotroph. (117 citations)
  • A next-generation marker genotyping platform (AmpSeq) in heterozygous crops: a case study for marker-assisted selection in grapevine (45 citations)
  • Suppression of Powdery Mildew (Podosphaera pannosa) in Greenhouse Roses by Brief Exposure to Supplemental UV-B radiation. (33 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Horticulture
  • Genetics

David M. Gadoury mainly investigates Powdery mildew, Botany, Genetics, Plant disease resistance and Uncinula necator. His Powdery mildew study is concerned with the field of Horticulture as a whole. His Mildew and Podosphaera xanthii study in the realm of Horticulture connects with subjects such as Sodium-vapor lamp and Uv b radiation.

His Botany study typically links adjacent topics like Range. His research integrates issues of Ascocarp, Taxonomy, Taxon, Obligate and Conidiation in his study of Uncinula necator. He combines subjects such as Conidium, Vegetative reproduction, Mating type and Mating with his study of Spore.
