Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Gene

Junco hyemalis, Junco, Zoology, Endocrinology and Internal medicine are her primary areas of study. Her studies in Junco hyemalis integrate themes in fields like Hormone and Nest. Her Junco research includes elements of Genetics, Songbird and Gnrh challenge.

Her research in the fields of Hatching asynchrony overlaps with other disciplines such as Flutamide. As a part of the same scientific family, Ellen D. Ketterson mostly works in the field of Endocrinology, focusing on Yolk and, on occasion, Brood patch, Avian clutch size, Eggshell, Anabolism and Agelaius. Her Testosterone study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Offspring, Paternal care, Androgen and Reproductive success.

Her most cited work include:

  • Adaptation, Exaptation, and Constraint: A Hormonal Perspective. (510 citations)
  • Hormones and life histories: an integrative approach. (455 citations)
  • TESTOSTERONE AND AVIAN LIFE HISTORIES: EFFECTS OF EXPERIMENTALLY ELEVATED TESTOSTERONE ON BEHAVIOR AND CORRELATES OF FITNESS IN THE DARK-EYED JUNCO (JUNCO HYEMALIS) (365 citations)

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

Ellen D. Ketterson mostly deals with Junco hyemalis, Junco, Zoology, Endocrinology and Internal medicine. Junco hyemalis is a subfield of Ecology that Ellen D. Ketterson explores. Her Junco study incorporates themes from Evolutionary biology, Genetics, Feather, Sexual conflict and Plumage.

Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Breed, Range and Reproduction. Her study looks at the relationship between Internal medicine and topics such as Paternal care, which overlap with Nest and Passerine. Her Reproductive success study combines topics in areas such as Offspring, Sexual selection, Demography and Mating system.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Junco hyemalis (48.44%)
  • Junco (33.78%)
  • Zoology (33.33%)

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

  • Zoology (33.33%)
  • Songbird (21.33%)
  • Junco hyemalis (48.44%)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Zoology, Songbird, Junco hyemalis, Junco and Sympatry. Her work on Sympatric speciation as part of general Zoology study is frequently linked to Latitude, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. Ellen D. Ketterson has included themes like Endocrinology, Stimulation, Internal medicine, Urbanization and Testosterone in her Songbird study.

Her work in the fields of Endocrinology, such as Lipid metabolism, intersects with other areas such as Oleoylethanolamide. Her research on Junco hyemalis concerns the broader Ecology. Ellen D. Ketterson combines subjects such as Host, Feather and Seasonal breeder with her study of Junco.

Between 2016 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Dense sampling of bird diversity increases power of comparative genomics. (34 citations)
  • Differential gene regulation underlies variation in melanic plumage coloration in the dark-eyed junco (Junco hyemalis). (18 citations)
  • Experimental evidence that symbiotic bacteria produce chemical cues in a songbird. (15 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Gene

Ellen D. Ketterson mainly investigates Zoology, Junco hyemalis, Junco, Songbird and Sympatry. Her research ties Ecology and Zoology together. Her studies deal with areas such as Telomere, Demography and Evolutionary biology as well as Junco hyemalis.

Her Junco research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Subspecies, Host and Feather. The study incorporates disciplines such as Endocrinology, Uropygial gland, Internal medicine, Reproductive success and Testosterone in addition to Songbird. In her study, photoperiodism and Reproductive isolation is strongly linked to Reproduction, which falls under the umbrella field of Sympatry.
