What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
Derek J. Taylor focuses on Evolutionary biology, Phylogenetics, Daphnia, Ecology and Zoology.
His Evolutionary biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Botany and Vicariance.
His work deals with themes such as Allopatric speciation, Biological dispersal, Population genetics and Daphnia galeata, which intersect with Vicariance.
His work carried out in the field of Phylogenetics brings together such families of science as Internal transcribed spacer, Species complex, Phylogenetic tree and DNA sequencing.
In general Ecology, his work in Biogeography and Endemism is often linked to Halophile linking many areas of study.
His Zoology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Marine invertebrates, Host, Hybrid and Introgression.
His most cited work include:
- Molecular phylogeny of symbiotic dinoflagellates inferred from partial chloroplast large subunit (23S)-rDNA sequences. (197 citations)
- GENETIC COMPARISONS OF FRESHLY ISOLATED VERSUS CULTURED SYMBIOTIC DINOFLAGELLATES: IMPLICATIONS FOR EXTRAPOLATING TO THE INTACT SYMBIOSIS (152 citations)
- Filoviruses are ancient and integrated into mammalian genomes (144 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Derek J. Taylor spends much of his time researching Zoology, Ecology, Evolutionary biology, Phylogenetics and Phylogenetic tree.
In his study, Range and Bosmina is strongly linked to Species complex, which falls under the umbrella field of Zoology.
His work deals with themes such as Botany, Vicariance, Ribosomal RNA, Mitochondrial DNA and Biological dispersal, which intersect with Evolutionary biology.
His Biological dispersal study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Genetic Speciation, Genetic structure and Population genetics.
His study looks at the intersection of Phylogenetics and topics like Internal transcribed spacer with Molecular phylogenetics.
His Phylogenetic tree research is within the category of Gene.

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His scientific interests lie mostly in Zoology, Biogeography, Phylogeography, Cladocera and Holarctic.
Derek J. Taylor regularly links together related areas like Species complex in his Zoology studies.
His Species complex study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Range and Taxonomy.
His Taxonomy study incorporates themes from Daphnia, Anomopoda and Phylogenetics.
His studies deal with areas such as Daphniidae and Genus as well as Biogeography.
Derek J. Taylor has researched Holarctic in several fields, including Chaoboridae, Endemism and Chaoborus flavicans.
Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Contrasting endemism in pond-dwelling cyclic parthenogens: the Daphnia curvirostris species group (Crustacea: Cladocera) (9 citations)
- Conservation of Structure and Immune Antagonist Functions of Filoviral VP35 Homologs Present in Microbat Genomes (8 citations)
- Resolution of the Daphnia umbra problem (Crustacea: Cladocera) using an integrated taxonomic approach (7 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
Derek J. Taylor mostly deals with Cladocera, Crustacean, Resolution, Daphnia umbra and Biogeography.
Derek J. Taylor has included themes like Invertebrate, Disjunct, Endemism, Holarctic and Daphniidae in his Biogeography study.
His research on Daphniidae concerns the broader Zoology.
