George G. Kennedy

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Ecology
• Botany
• Insect

George G. Kennedy mainly investigates Botany, Ecology, PEST analysis, Horticulture and Resistance. Trichome, Thrips, Thripidae, Lycopersicon and Lepidoptera genitalia are among the areas of Botany where the researcher is concentrating his efforts. He works mostly in the field of Lycopersicon, limiting it down to topics relating to Manduca sexta and, in certain cases, Wild tomato and Colorado potato beetle, as a part of the same area of interest.

His Ecology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Genetic variability and Biological dispersal. His studies in PEST analysis integrate themes in fields like Genetics, Host, Harmonia axyridis, Coccinellidae and Biotechnology. His work on Gelechiidae and Melon as part of general Horticulture study is frequently connected to Stylet and Active component, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

His most cited work include:

• Tomato, Pests, Parasitoids, and Predators: Tritrophic Interactions Involving the Genus Lycopersicon (266 citations)
• Integration of Insect-Resistant Genetically Modified Crops within IPM Programs (227 citations)
• 2-Tridecanone: A Naturally Occurring Insecticide from the Wild Tomato Lycopersicon hirsutum f.glabratum (216 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Botany, Agronomy, Horticulture, PEST analysis and Thrips. Botany is represented through his Leptinotarsa, Larva, Lycopersicon, Lepidoptera genitalia and Trichome research. His study in Agronomy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Overwintering and European corn borer.

The concepts of his Horticulture study are interwoven with issues in Plant virus, Imidacloprid and Sex pheromone. In general PEST analysis study, his work on Colorado potato beetle often relates to the realm of Bacillus thuringiensis, thereby connecting several areas of interest. George G. Kennedy interconnects Host and Frankliniella tritici in the investigation of issues within Thrips.

He most often published in these fields:

• Botany (40.56%)
• Agronomy (28.51%)
• Horticulture (27.71%)

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

• Thrips (18.07%)
• Neonicotinoid (4.82%)
• Horticulture (27.71%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Thrips, Neonicotinoid, Horticulture, Imidacloprid and Agronomy. The Thrips study combines topics in areas such as PEST analysis, Host and Crop. His work deals with themes such as Pesticide, Herbivore and Intensive farming, which intersect with PEST analysis.

His work carried out in the field of Neonicotinoid brings together such families of science as Gossypium, Larva and Seedling. His research integrates issues of Toxicology and Resistance in his study of Imidacloprid. His Trichome research entails a greater understanding of Botany.

Between 2015 and 2020, his most popular works were:

• Frankliniella fusca resistance to neonicotinoid insecticides: an emerging challenge for cotton pest management in the eastern United States. (44 citations)
• Differential and Synergistic Functionality of Acylsugars in Suppressing Oviposition by Insect Herbivores. (32 citations)
• Insecticide Resistance Signals Negative Consequences of Widespread Neonicotinoid Use on Multiple Field Crops in the U.S. Cotton Belt. (16 citations)

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

• Ecology
• Botany
• Insect

George G. Kennedy focuses on Thrips, Neonicotinoid, Agronomy, Imidacloprid and Thiamethoxam. His Thrips study incorporates themes from PEST analysis, Crop and Gossypium. His research in PEST analysis intersects with topics in Intensive farming, Canopy, Herbivore, Pesticide and Frankliniella tritici.

His Gossypium research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Integrated pest management and Resistance. His studies examine the connections between Imidacloprid and genetics, as well as such issues in Toxicology, with regards to Cyantraniliprole and Bifenthrin. The various areas that George G. Kennedy examines in his Acylsugar study include Whitefly, Exudate, Botany, Plant breeding and Bioassay.
