The fields of study he is best known for:
Eric R. Ward mainly focuses on Systemic acquired resistance, Microbiology, Salicylic acid, Pathogen and Plant disease resistance.
His Systemic acquired resistance research includes themes of Computational biology and Gene expression.
Eric R. Ward works mostly in the field of Microbiology, limiting it down to topics relating to Transgene and, in certain cases, Nicotiana tabacum.
His research integrates issues of Inducer, Phloem and Hyaloperonospora parasitica in his study of Salicylic acid.
The concepts of his Pathogen study are interwoven with issues in Pathogenesis-related protein, Signal transduction and Virology.
Eric R. Ward studies Gene, focusing on Arabidopsis in particular.
His most cited work include:
- Requirement of Salicylic Acid for the Induction of Systemic Acquired Resistance (1481 citations)
- A Central Role of Salicylic Acid in Plant Disease Resistance (1427 citations)
