Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Bacteria
  • Gene
  • Fungus

David M. Weller mainly investigates Botany, 2,4-Diacetylphloroglucinol, Rhizosphere, Pseudomonas and Bacteria. Pseudomonadaceae is closely connected to Pseudomonas fluorescens in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Botany. The Rhizosphere study combines topics in areas such as Biological pest control and Soil microbiology.

His studies deal with areas such as Soil biology, Microbial population biology, Fusarium oxysporum and Root microbiome as well as Soil microbiology. His Pseudomonas research includes themes of Monoculture, Agronomy and Rhizobacteria. His Bacteria research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Ecology, Colonization, Microbiology and Biotechnology.

His most cited work include:

  • Biological control of soilborne plant pathogens in the rhizosphere with bacteria (1574 citations)
  • Microbial populations responsible for specific soil suppressiveness to plant pathogens. (1150 citations)
  • Pseudomonas biocontrol agents of soilborne pathogens: looking back over 30 years. (474 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Rhizosphere, Botany, Pseudomonas, Pseudomonas fluorescens and 2,4-Diacetylphloroglucinol. His studies in Rhizosphere integrate themes in fields like Microorganism, Agronomy and Soil microbiology. His study in the field of Poaceae and Take-all is also linked to topics like Internal transcribed spacer.

His Pseudomonas research incorporates themes from Antibiotics, Biosynthesis, Phenazine, Biological pest control and Locus. The Pseudomonas fluorescens study combines topics in areas such as Inoculation, Horticulture, Root rot, Pseudomonadaceae and Microbiology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Monoculture and Genotype in addition to 2,4-Diacetylphloroglucinol.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Rhizosphere (59.09%)
  • Botany (43.94%)
  • Pseudomonas (42.42%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Biological pest control (22.73%)
  • Rhizosphere (59.09%)
  • Horticulture (12.12%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Biological pest control, Rhizosphere, Horticulture, Pseudomonas and Pseudomonas brassicacearum. His Biological pest control research includes elements of Pseudomonas fluorescens and Soil microbiology. His Rhizosphere study combines topics in areas such as Endophyte, Ecology and Pseudomonas bacteria.

His Pseudomonas study frequently draws connections to other fields, such as Botany. His study in the field of Rhizoctonia, Rhizoctonia solani, Brassica and Canola also crosses realms of Potato dextrose agar. His Pseudomonas brassicacearum study also includes fields such as

  • Phytotoxicity that intertwine with fields like Colonization, Seedling, Take-all, Strain and Germination,
  • Cultivar and related 2,4-Diacetylphloroglucinol.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Disease Suppressive Soils: New Insights from the Soil Microbiome. (143 citations)
  • Root-associated microbes in sustainable agriculture: models, metabolites and mechanisms. (16 citations)
  • Biological Control of Botrytis cinerea: Interactions with Native Vineyard Yeasts from Washington State. (15 citations)

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

  • Bacteria
  • Gene
  • Fungus

His scientific interests lie mostly in Microbiome, Ecology, Rhizoctonia solani, Susceptible individual and Rhizoctonia. His study in Microbiome is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Soil water, Soil microbiology and Biological pest control.
