Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Gene

David M. Shuker mainly focuses on Ecology, Evolutionary biology, Sex allocation, Nasonia vitripennis and Sex ratio. He combines topics linked to Population density with his work on Ecology. His Evolutionary biology study incorporates themes from Adaptation, Genetics, Natural selection and Niche.

David M. Shuker has researched Sex allocation in several fields, including Taxon and Haplodiploidy. He works mostly in the field of Nasonia vitripennis, limiting it down to concerns involving Nasonia and, occasionally, Genome and Gene density. His Sex ratio study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Zoology, Parasitoid, Parasitoid wasp and Competition.

His most cited work include:

  • Functional and evolutionary insights from the genomes of three parasitoid Nasonia species. (705 citations)
  • Inclusive fitness theory and eusociality (280 citations)
  • Fitness consequences of immune responses: strengthening the empirical framework for ecoimmunology (164 citations)

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

His main research concerns Ecology, Nasonia vitripennis, Sex allocation, Evolutionary biology and Sexual selection. The concepts of his Ecology study are interwoven with issues in Zoology and Population density. His work carried out in the field of Nasonia vitripennis brings together such families of science as Intraspecific competition and Parasitoid wasp, Nasonia.

David M. Shuker works mostly in the field of Sex allocation, limiting it down to topics relating to Competition and, in certain cases, Avian clutch size, as a part of the same area of interest. David M. Shuker interconnects Reproductive isolation, Natural selection and Genomics in the investigation of issues within Evolutionary biology. In his study, Courtship display is strongly linked to Mate choice, which falls under the umbrella field of Sexual selection.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (51.49%)
  • Nasonia vitripennis (41.79%)
  • Sex allocation (39.55%)

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

  • Nasonia vitripennis (41.79%)
  • Evolutionary biology (35.07%)
  • Genetics (23.88%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Nasonia vitripennis, Evolutionary biology, Genetics, Parasitoid wasp and Sex allocation. His study focuses on the intersection of Nasonia vitripennis and fields such as Nasonia with connections in the field of Sex ratio. His Evolutionary biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Animal ecology, Divergence and Genetic architecture.

His Parasitoid wasp research incorporates themes from Adaptation and Gene expression. His work on Pteromalidae as part of general Parasitoid research is often related to Research council, thus linking different fields of science. Ecology covers David M. Shuker research in Mating.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Reproductive interference in insects (17 citations)
  • An Inconvenient Truth: The Unconsidered Benefits of Convenience Polyandry (9 citations)
  • Validating the Demethylating Effects of 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine in Insects Requires a Whole-Genome Approach. (6 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Gene

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Harassment, Sexual conflict, Evolutionary biology, Parasitoid wasp and Nasonia. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Competition, Interference and Mating, Mating system. The various areas that David M. Shuker examines in his Evolutionary biology study include Parasitoid, Pteromalidae, Divergence and Behavioural genetics.

His Parasitoid wasp research incorporates elements of Sperm, Sperm competition and Adaptation. His work deals with themes such as Nasonia vitripennis, Sex allocation, Sex ratio and DNA methylation, which intersect with Nasonia. His study in Sex ratio is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Allele and Demethylating agent.
