Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Gene
  • Genetics

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Evolutionary biology, Genetics, Genetic variation and Genetic structure. His Ecology research includes themes of Phylogeography, Population genetics and Genetic diversity. His Population genetics research incorporates elements of Biological dispersal and Isolation by distance.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Feminization, Sex allocation, Stickleback, Host and Insect. His Genetics research includes themes of Shrimp, Litopenaeus and Penaeidae. His Genetic variation research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Genetic variability, Microsatellite and Genetic heterogeneity.

His most cited work include:

  • Pillars of Hercules: is the Atlantic–Mediterranean transition a phylogeographical break? (424 citations)
  • Microsatellites and their genomic distribution, evolution, function and applications : A review with special reference to fish genetics (371 citations)
  • Rapid, local adaptation of zooplankton behavior to changes in predation pressure in the absence of neutral genetic changes (322 citations)

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

Filip Volckaert focuses on Ecology, Fishery, Zoology, Evolutionary biology and Genetics. Filip Volckaert has included themes like Pomatoschistus, Goby, Genetic structure, Biological dispersal and Cichlid in his Ecology study. He interconnects Aquaculture, Oceanography, Otolith and Genomics in the investigation of issues within Fishery.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Host and Gyrodactylus in addition to Zoology. His Evolutionary biology research focuses on Stickleback and how it connects with Gasterosteus. Filip Volckaert combines subjects such as Dicentrarchus and Genetic variation with his study of Microsatellite.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (47.48%)
  • Fishery (18.10%)
  • Zoology (18.99%)

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

  • Ecology (47.48%)
  • Zoology (18.99%)
  • Fishery (18.10%)

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

Filip Volckaert mainly focuses on Ecology, Zoology, Fishery, Population genomics and Biodiversity. His Ecology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Biological dispersal and Gyrodactylus. His Zoology research incorporates themes from Microbiome, Goby, Predation and Introgression.

His work on Overfishing and Fisheries management as part of general Fishery study is frequently linked to Business and Stakeholder, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. The Population genomics study combines topics in areas such as Genome size, Restriction enzyme, Molecular ecology, Isolation by distance and Local adaptation. His research integrates issues of Range, Urbanization, Environmental resource management and Ecoregion in his study of Biodiversity.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Seafood substitution and mislabeling in Brussels' restaurants and canteens (41 citations)
  • Seascape genetics of a flatfish reveals local selection under high levels of gene flow (25 citations)
  • Seascape genetics of a flatfish reveals local selection under high levels of gene flow (25 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Gene
  • Genetics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Zoology, Flatfish, Isolation by distance and Population genomics. Filip Volckaert has researched Ecology in several fields, including Biological dispersal, Gyrodactylus and Cichlid. His study in the fields of Schistosoma haematobium and Fasciola hepatica under the domain of Zoology overlaps with other disciplines such as Pseudosuccinea columella and Eichhornia crassipes.

His Flatfish research integrates issues from Marine protected area, Limnology and Larva. In his research, Fishery is intimately related to Lake Tanganyika sprat, which falls under the overarching field of Isolation by distance. In his study, Evolutionary biology is inextricably linked to Phylogeography, which falls within the broad field of Population genomics.
