Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Genus

Erika J. Edwards mainly focuses on Ecology, Botany, Lineage, Phylogenetics and Phylogenetic tree. Her works in Biome, Arid, Ecosystem, Grassland and Poaceae are all subjects of inquiry into Ecology. Her Cactus, Stomatal conductance and Taxon study in the realm of Botany connects with subjects such as Trait.

Her studies deal with areas such as Photosynthesis, Climate change, Xylem and Abiotic component as well as Lineage. Erika J. Edwards regularly links together related areas like Evolutionary biology in her Phylogenetics studies. Her Phylogenetic tree research incorporates elements of Flaveria and Eudicots.

Her most cited work include:

  • The Origins of C4 Grasslands: Integrating Evolutionary and Ecosystem Science (666 citations)
  • The C4 plant lineages of planet Earth (386 citations)
  • Relations between stomatal closure, leaf turgor and xylem vulnerability in eight tropical dry forest trees (304 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Botany, Phylogenetics, Lineage and Phylogenetic tree. Her research links Viburnum with Ecology. Her Phylogenetics research integrates issues from Evolutionary biology, Eudicots and Molluginaceae.

Her work deals with themes such as Arid, Range, Calandrinia and Niche, which intersect with Lineage. Her work on Character evolution as part of her general Phylogenetic tree study is frequently connected to Persistent homology, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. Her research integrates issues of Dominance, Biodiversity and Grassland in her study of Biome.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (50.83%)
  • Botany (39.17%)
  • Phylogenetics (40.00%)

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

  • Ecology (50.83%)
  • Lineage (40.83%)
  • Biome (18.33%)

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

Erika J. Edwards mainly investigates Ecology, Lineage, Biome, Evolutionary biology and Biogeography. The various areas that Erika J. Edwards examines in her Ecology study include Viburnum and Reproductive isolation. A significant part of her Lineage research incorporates Phylogenetic tree and Phylogenetics studies.

Her Biome research includes themes of Biodiversity and Temperate climate. Her Evolutionary biology research incorporates themes from Photosynthesis, Crassulacean acid metabolism, Tree of life and Clade. Her Ecosystem research focuses on Dominance and how it connects with Arid.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Evolutionary trajectories, accessibility and other metaphors: the case of C4 and CAM photosynthesis. (46 citations)
  • The genetics of convergent evolution: insights from plant photosynthesis (34 citations)
  • Restriction-Site-Associated DNA Sequencing Reveals a Cryptic Viburnum Species on the North American Coastal Plain (18 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Genus

Erika J. Edwards focuses on Evolutionary biology, Clade, Crassulacean acid metabolism, Adaptation and Photosynthesis. Her Evolutionary biology study incorporates themes from Phylogenetics and Lineage. Her Phylogenetics research includes elements of Range, Comparative biology, Calandrinia and MEDLINE.

Her Lineage study results in a more complete grasp of Phylogenetic tree. The study incorporates disciplines such as Convergent evolution and Tree of life in addition to Clade. To a larger extent, Erika J. Edwards studies Botany with the aim of understanding Crassulacean acid metabolism.
