Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Bacteria
  • Gene
  • DNA

Her main research concerns Microbiology, Plasmid, Bacteria, Soil microbiology and Temperature gradient gel electrophoresis. The Microbiology study combines topics in areas such as Genetic transfer, Activated sludge, Pseudomonas putida, Proteobacteria and Comamonas testosteroni. Her Plasmid study is related to the wider topic of Genetics.

Her Bioaugmentation and Alcaligenes study in the realm of Bacteria connects with subjects such as Xenobiotic. Her work carried out in the field of Soil microbiology brings together such families of science as Soil Pollutants and Botany. Her Mobile genetic elements research also works with subjects such as

  • Horizontal gene transfer which intersects with area such as Adaptation,
  • Ecology which connect with Microbial ecology and Pareto principle.

Her most cited work include:

  • Evaluation of nested PCR–DGGE (denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis) with group-specific 16S rRNA primers for the analysis of bacterial communities from different wastewater treatment plants (477 citations)
  • Effect of phenylurea herbicides on soil microbial communities estimated by analysis of 16S rRNA gene fingerprints and community-level physiological profiles (316 citations)
  • Bioaugmentation of Activated Sludge by an Indigenous 3-Chloroaniline-Degrading Comamonas testosteroni Strain, I2gfp (304 citations)

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

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Plasmid, Genetics, Microbiology, Gene and Bacteria. Eva M. Top interconnects Antibiotic resistance, Horizontal gene transfer, Transposable element and Escherichia coli in the investigation of issues within Plasmid. Her Microbiology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Biofilm, Temperature gradient gel electrophoresis, Pseudomonas putida, Bioaugmentation and Soil microbiology.

Her study in Temperature gradient gel electrophoresis is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Soil water and Microbial population biology. Her Gene study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Computational biology and DNA. Her Bioremediation and Alcaligenes study, which is part of a larger body of work in Bacteria, is frequently linked to Xenobiotic, bridging the gap between disciplines.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Plasmid (62.43%)
  • Genetics (41.80%)
  • Microbiology (40.21%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Plasmid (62.43%)
  • Genetics (41.80%)
  • Antibiotic resistance (17.46%)

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

Eva M. Top mostly deals with Plasmid, Genetics, Antibiotic resistance, Microbiology and Horizontal gene transfer. Her Plasmid research includes elements of Multiple drug resistance, Genome, Escherichia coli and Bacteria. Her Antibiotic resistance study combines topics in areas such as Agriculture, Monensin and Crop.

Her work in Microbiology addresses issues such as Biofilm, which are connected to fields such as Chemostat. The various areas that Eva M. Top examines in her Horizontal gene transfer study include Drug resistance and Pseudomonas. Her Gene research includes themes of Adaptation and DNA.

Between 2014 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Compensatory mutations improve general permissiveness to antibiotic resistance plasmids. (75 citations)
  • Plasmid Detection, Characterization, and Ecology. (74 citations)
  • Evolutionary Paths that Expand Plasmid Host-Range: Implications for Spread of Antibiotic Resistance (70 citations)

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

  • Bacteria
  • Gene
  • DNA

Eva M. Top mainly focuses on Plasmid, Genetics, Antibiotic resistance, Horizontal gene transfer and Gene. Eva M. Top combines subjects such as Computational biology and Bacteria with her study of Plasmid. Her work on Ecology expands to the thematically related Genetics.

Her study explores the link between Antibiotic resistance and topics such as Multiple drug resistance that cross with problems in RNA polymerase. Her study focuses on the intersection of Horizontal gene transfer and fields such as Microbiology with connections in the field of Escherichia coli. Her work on DNA sequencing as part of general Gene research is often related to Gene nomenclature, thus linking different fields of science.
