Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Gene

Gordon Luikart mostly deals with Genetics, Conservation genetics, Population genetics, Ecology and Allele frequency. His Genetics study typically links adjacent topics like Sample size determination. His Conservation genetics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Genomics, Sampling, Genetic structure, Gene flow and Data science.

The concepts of his Population genetics study are interwoven with issues in Population size, Selection and Small population size. His Ecology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Statistic, Biological dispersal, Panmixia and Genetic diversity. Gordon Luikart interconnects Population bottleneck and Loss of heterozygosity in the investigation of issues within Allele frequency.

His most cited work include:

  • Description and Power Analysis of Two Tests for Detecting Recent Population Bottlenecks from Allele Frequency Data (3564 citations)
  • Description and Power Analysis of Two Tests for Detecting Recent Population Bottlenecks from Allele Frequency Data (3564 citations)
  • Computer note. BOTTLENECK: a computer program for detecting recent reductions in the effective size using allele frequency data (2528 citations)

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

Genetics, Ecology, Evolutionary biology, Microsatellite and Conservation genetics are his primary areas of study. He has researched Ecology in several fields, including Gene flow, Genetic diversity, Biological dispersal and Population genetics. The study incorporates disciplines such as Landscape ecology, Ecology, Selection and Population bottleneck in addition to Population genetics.

His Evolutionary biology study combines topics in areas such as Biodiversity and Allele frequency. Gordon Luikart has included themes like Zoology, Capra ibex, Loss of heterozygosity and Candidate gene in his Microsatellite study. His research in Conservation genetics tackles topics such as Genomics which are related to areas like Data science and Molecular ecology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (44.34%)
  • Ecology (35.29%)
  • Evolutionary biology (24.43%)

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

  • Ecology (35.29%)
  • Evolutionary biology (24.43%)
  • Population genomics (7.69%)

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

Gordon Luikart spends much of his time researching Ecology, Evolutionary biology, Population genomics, Genomics and Conservation genetics. His studies in Ecology integrate themes in fields like Fishery and Genetic diversity. Gordon Luikart combines subjects such as Genetic linkage, Allele, Allele frequency and Genetic architecture with his study of Evolutionary biology.

Population genomics is a primary field of his research addressed under Genetics. His research integrates issues of Genetic divergence and Black-tailed deer in his study of Genetics. His Conservation genetics research incorporates elements of Synteny, Locus, Genetic structure and Inbreeding depression.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Harnessing the power of RADseq for ecological and evolutionary genomics (708 citations)
  • RAD Capture (Rapture): Flexible and Efficient Sequence-Based Genotyping. (217 citations)
  • Genomics advances the study of inbreeding depression in the wild. (117 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genetics
  • Gene

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Genomics, Conservation genetics, Population genomics and Genetics. His research in Genomics intersects with topics in Natural selection, Environmental resource management, Allele, Conservation biology and Data science. His Conservation genetics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Sample size determination, Population genetics, Genetic diversity, Ecology and Genetic variation.

His Population genetics research includes themes of Genetic isolate, Nucleotide diversity and Computational biology. His study in Ecology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Genotyping and DNA sequencing. His Genetics study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Selection, Resistance and Mating system.
