Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Bacteria
  • DNA

His scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, Genome, Gene, Phylogenetics and Horizontal gene transfer. His Genetics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Evolutionary biology and Selection. His research integrates issues of Microbiology and Virulence in his study of Genome.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Cell division and Bacillus subtilis in addition to Gene. His research investigates the connection between Phylogenetics and topics such as Phylogenetic tree that intersect with problems in Genome project, Gene conversion and Gene flow. His Horizontal gene transfer research incorporates elements of Plasmid and Transposable element, Insertion sequence.

His most cited work include:

  • The complete genome sequence of the Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis (3335 citations)
  • The complete genome sequence of the Gram-positive bacterium Bacillus subtilis (3335 citations)
  • Organised Genome Dynamics in the Escherichia coli Species Results in Highly Diverse Adaptive Paths (979 citations)

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

His main research concerns Genetics, Genome, Gene, Horizontal gene transfer and Bacterial genome size. Phylogenetics, Virulence, Mobile genetic elements, Genome evolution and Bacteria are among the areas of Genetics where he concentrates his study. His Genome research integrates issues from Evolutionary biology, Computational biology and CRISPR.

His research links Bacillus subtilis with Gene. The concepts of his Horizontal gene transfer study are interwoven with issues in Homologous recombination, Protein family, Transposable element, Insertion sequence and Integrases. While the research belongs to areas of Bacterial genome size, Eduardo P. C. Rocha spends his time largely on the problem of Prophage, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Lysogen.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (109.79%)
  • Genome (91.61%)
  • Gene (66.08%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Gene (66.08%)
  • Genetics (109.79%)
  • Genome (91.61%)

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

Eduardo P. C. Rocha mainly focuses on Gene, Genetics, Genome, Mobile genetic elements and Horizontal gene transfer. His Gene study incorporates themes from Cytoplasm, Cell biology and DNA. His work in the fields of Genetics, such as Virulence, Bacteria, Prophage and Homology, overlaps with other areas such as Arms race.

He specializes in Genome, namely Comparative genomics. Eduardo P. C. Rocha works mostly in the field of Mobile genetic elements, limiting it down to topics relating to Genetic diversity and, in certain cases, Escherichia coli, Human gut, Contig and Deep sequencing. His Horizontal gene transfer study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Phylogenetics.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Ultrafast search of all deposited bacterial and viral genomic data. (69 citations)
  • Diversification of the type IV filament superfamily into machines for adhesion, protein secretion, DNA uptake, and motility. (43 citations)
  • Phylogenetic background and habitat drive the genetic diversification of Escherichia coli (25 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Bacteria
  • DNA

His primary areas of study are Computational biology, Genetics, Horizontal gene transfer, Genome and Phylogenetics. His Computational biology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Molecular genetics, Contig and Experimental evolution. His study in Genetics concentrates on Virulence, Prophage, Plasmid and Bacterial genome size.

His biological study deals with issues like Evolutionary biology, which deal with fields such as Last universal ancestor, Pilus, Sequence alignment, DNA and Population genetics. His Genome study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Human gut and Structural genomics. His Phylogenetics study introduces a deeper knowledge of Gene.
