Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Enzyme

His main research concerns Aphid, Botany, Myzus persicae, Biochemistry and Acyrthosiphon pisum. The study incorporates disciplines such as Episyrphus balteatus, Biological pest control, Predation and Coccinellidae in addition to Aphid. His Botany research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Proteome and Host.

The Myzus persicae study combines topics in areas such as Expressed sequence tag, NADH dehydrogenase, Insect, Generalist and specialist species and Adalia bipunctata. As part of the same scientific family, Frédéric Francis usually focuses on Biochemistry, concentrating on Chromatography and intersecting with Gel electrophoresis and Membrane protein. His work carried out in the field of Acyrthosiphon pisum brings together such families of science as Ecology, Honeydew, Reproduction, Kairomone and photoperiodism.

His most cited work include:

  • Edible Insects Acceptance by Belgian Consumers: Promising Attitude for Entomophagy Development (202 citations)
  • Identification of aphid salivary proteins: a proteomic investigation of Myzus persicae. (181 citations)
  • Consumer acceptance of insect-based alternative meat products in Western countries (164 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Aphid, Botany, Ecology, Agronomy and Horticulture. His Aphid research incorporates elements of Acyrthosiphon pisum, Episyrphus balteatus and Aphididae. His Botany study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Harmonia axyridis and Coccinellidae.

Frédéric Francis studies Predation which is a part of Ecology. His research in Agronomy intersects with topics in PEST analysis, Agroforestry and Biological pest control. His Tuta absoluta study is concerned with the larger field of Gelechiidae.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Aphid (27.80%)
  • Botany (24.53%)
  • Ecology (16.46%)

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

  • Aphid (27.80%)
  • Botany (24.53%)
  • Zoology (7.30%)

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

Frédéric Francis spends much of his time researching Aphid, Botany, Zoology, Agronomy and Food science. The various areas that Frédéric Francis examines in his Aphid study include Acyrthosiphon pisum, Sitobion avenae and Aphididae. His studies deal with areas such as Hemiptera and Myzus persicae as well as Aphididae.

Frédéric Francis works on Botany which deals in particular with Tuta absoluta. His Agronomy study deals with Biological pest control intersecting with Integrated pest management and Wildflower. His research integrates issues of Hermetia illucens, Acheta, Polyunsaturated fatty acid, Fatty acid and Insect in his study of Food science.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Generation of High-Amylose Rice through CRISPR/Cas9-Mediated Targeted Mutagenesis of Starch Branching Enzymes. (157 citations)
  • Insect fatty acids: A comparison of lipids from three Orthopterans and Tenebrio molitor L. larvae (74 citations)
  • Microbiological Load of Edible Insects Found in Belgium (42 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Enzyme

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Aphid, Botany, Food science, Agronomy and Insect. His Aphid research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Infestation, Proteomics, Saliva, Sitobion avenae and Semiochemical. His work carried out in the field of Botany brings together such families of science as Olfaction, Integrated pest management and Predation.

His Food science research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Acheta, Acacia and Polyunsaturated fatty acid, Fatty acid. The concepts of his Agronomy study are interwoven with issues in Species richness and Biological pest control. His work in Insect covers topics such as Entomophagy which are related to areas like Marketing, Sample and Food industry.
