Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Bacteria

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Genetics, Evolutionary biology, Systematics and Ecotype. His work in Ecology covers topics such as Microbial ecology which are related to areas like Metagenomics and Ribosomal RNA. His research in Genetics tackles topics such as Population genetics which are related to areas like Gene transfer, Genomics and Data sequences.

His Evolutionary biology research includes themes of Genome, Gene and Ecosystem diversity. His Ecosystem diversity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Genetic transfer, Ecological niche and Genetic variation. His Systematics research includes elements of Evolutionary dynamics, Biodiversity and Phylogenetics.

His most cited work include:

  • Re-evaluating prokaryotic species (858 citations)
  • What are Bacterial Species (585 citations)
  • Origins of bacterial diversity through horizontal genetic transfer and adaptation to new ecological niches. (400 citations)

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

Frederick M. Cohan mostly deals with Ecology, Evolutionary biology, Genetics, Ecotype and Systematics. His research in Ecology intersects with topics in Genetic transfer, Microbial ecology and Lineage. His Evolutionary biology study incorporates themes from Taxon, Microbial population biology, Phage ecology and Genetic divergence.

Frederick M. Cohan combines subjects such as Natural selection and Population genetics with his study of Genetics. The study incorporates disciplines such as Phylogenetics, Genome and Ecosystem diversity in addition to Ecotype. The concepts of his Systematics study are interwoven with issues in Ecology, Evolutionary ecology, DNA sequencing and Data sequences.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (36.00%)
  • Evolutionary biology (35.00%)
  • Genetics (31.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2020)?

  • Evolutionary biology (35.00%)
  • Ecology (36.00%)
  • Ecotype (29.00%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Evolutionary biology, Ecology, Ecotype, Taxon and Generalist and specialist species. His Evolutionary biology research is mostly focused on the topic Genetic algorithm. Frederick M. Cohan merges Ecology with Synechococcus in his study.

Frederick M. Cohan has included themes like Systematics and Genome in his Taxon study. His Genome study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Taxonomy and Ecosystem diversity. His research in Generalist and specialist species focuses on subjects like Niche, which are connected to Genetics, Genetic transfer, Host and Population genetics.

Between 2015 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Bacterial Speciation: Genetic Sweeps in Bacterial Species (29 citations)
  • Transmission in the Origins of Bacterial Diversity, From Ecotypes to Phyla. (25 citations)
  • Differentiation strategies of soil rare and abundant microbial taxa in response to changing climatic regimes. (17 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Bacteria

Frederick M. Cohan focuses on Genetic algorithm, Evolutionary biology, Ecology, Generalist and specialist species and Animal species. His Genetic algorithm study combines topics in areas such as Genetic Speciation, Lineage, Phylogenetic tree, Taxon and Ecological niche. Frederick M. Cohan performs multidisciplinary study in Ecology and Nitrogen cycle in his work.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Genetics, Host, Genetic transfer, Population genetics and Horizontal gene transfer. His Animal species research spans across into subjects like Ecological speciation and Direct evidence.
