Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Biochemistry

Georges Lognay focuses on Botany, Food science, Aphid, Adalia bipunctata and Biochemistry. Georges Lognay combines topics linked to Olfactometer with his work on Botany. The concepts of his Food science study are interwoven with issues in Cultivar, Sterol and Fatty acid.

Georges Lognay has included themes like Acyrthosiphon pisum, Episyrphus balteatus, Brevicoryne brassicae, Aphididae and Kairomone in his Aphid study. His studies deal with areas such as Zoology, Mating and Cannibalism as well as Adalia bipunctata. His work is dedicated to discovering how Pheromone, Coccinellidae are connected with Entomology and Semiochemical and other disciplines.

His most cited work include:

  • Estimating Fatty Acid Content in Cow Milk using Mid-Infrared Spectrometry (202 citations)
  • Cadaveric volatile organic compounds released by decaying pig carcasses (Sus domesticus L.) in different biotopes. (163 citations)
  • Olfactory responses to aphid and host plant volatile releases: (E)-beta-farnesene an effective kairomone for the predator Adalia bipunctata. (136 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Botany, Chromatography, Food science, Horticulture and Ecology. His research on Botany often connects related areas such as Harmonia axyridis. His work in Chromatography is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Semiochemical.

He interconnects Interesterified fat and Biochemistry, Fatty acid in the investigation of issues within Food science. He works in the field of Ecology, namely ANT. Georges Lognay has researched Aphid in several fields, including Mutualism, Acyrthosiphon pisum and Honeydew.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (31.82%)
  • Chromatography (13.64%)
  • Food science (12.92%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Botany (31.82%)
  • Horticulture (11.72%)
  • Essential oil (10.05%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Botany, Horticulture, Essential oil, Food science and Agronomy. His Botany research focuses on Acyrthosiphon pisum, Pollen, Aphid, Larva and Pollinator. In his study, Geraniol is strongly linked to Steam distillation, which falls under the umbrella field of Horticulture.

His Essential oil research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Chemical composition and Ocimum. As part of his studies on Food science, Georges Lognay often connects relevant areas like Fatty acid. His Rhagoletis completa study deals with Integrated pest management intersecting with PEST analysis.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Insect fatty acids: A comparison of lipids from three Orthopterans and Tenebrio molitor L. larvae (74 citations)
  • Is non-host pollen suitable for generalist bumblebees? (25 citations)
  • Impact of pollen resources drift on common bumblebees in NW Europe (22 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Enzyme

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Botany, Food science, Essential oil, Zoology and Aphid. His Botany research includes elements of Protein digestibility and Chemical composition. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Enzymatic interesterification, Isoflavones and Fatty acid.

Georges Lognay focuses mostly in the field of Essential oil, narrowing it down to topics relating to Horticulture and, in certain cases, Linalool and Host. His research in Zoology intersects with topics in Harmonia axyridis and Foraging. His work carried out in the field of Aphid brings together such families of science as Mutualism, Escape response, Acyrthosiphon pisum, Predation and Olfaction.
