Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • DNA

His primary areas of study are Genetics, Evolutionary biology, Microsatellite, Genome and Gene. His Genetic marker, Genetic linkage, Autosome, Genetic variation and Mutation rate investigations are all subjects of Genetics research. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Genetic Speciation, Reproductive isolation, Molecular evolution and Genomics.

His Microsatellite study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Polymerase chain reaction, Mendelian inheritance, Genotype and Loss of heterozygosity. His Genome research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Zebra finch and DNA sequencing. His study looks at the intersection of Synteny and topics like Whole genome sequencing with Sequence analysis.

His most cited work include:

  • Sequence and comparative analysis of the chicken genome provide unique perspectives on vertebrate evolution (2193 citations)
  • Microsatellites: simple sequences with complex evolution (1687 citations)
  • A simple and universal method for molecular sexing of non-ratite birds (1336 citations)

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

Hans Ellegren mainly focuses on Genetics, Evolutionary biology, Genome, Gene and Microsatellite. His study in Genetic linkage, Genetic marker, Z chromosome, Mutation rate and Genetic variation falls under the purview of Genetics. His research in Z chromosome focuses on subjects like W chromosome, which are connected to Y chromosome.

Hans Ellegren focuses mostly in the field of Evolutionary biology, narrowing it down to topics relating to Genetic diversity and, in certain cases, Genetic variability. His Genome study combines topics in areas such as Zebra finch and DNA sequencing. His studies deal with areas such as Zoology and Loss of heterozygosity as well as Microsatellite.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (69.17%)
  • Evolutionary biology (33.78%)
  • Genome (23.59%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Evolutionary biology (33.78%)
  • Genetics (69.17%)
  • Genome (23.59%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Evolutionary biology, Genetics, Genome, Effective population size and Gene. His Evolutionary biology research incorporates elements of Flycatcher, Population genetics, Genetic diversity, Genomics and Nucleotide diversity. His Genetics study often links to related topics such as Ficedula.

As a part of the same scientific study, he usually deals with the Genome, concentrating on Chromosome and frequently concerns with Genetic linkage. His Effective population size study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Ecology, Phylogenetic tree, Life history theory, Phylogenetics and Small population size. His Dosage compensation study combines topics in areas such as Z chromosome and Heterogametic sex.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Whole-genome analyses resolve early branches in the tree of life of modern birds (1174 citations)
  • Genome sequencing and population genomics in non-model organisms. (438 citations)
  • Linked selection and recombination rate variation drive the evolution of the genomic landscape of differentiation across the speciation continuum of Ficedula flycatchers (285 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • DNA

His scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, Evolutionary biology, Genome, Genomics and Effective population size. His Genetics study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Zebra finch. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Genetic Speciation, Phylogenetics, Molecular evolution, Reproductive isolation and Inbreeding.

Hans Ellegren focuses mostly in the field of Genome, narrowing it down to matters related to Karyotype and, in some cases, Genomic organization. His Genomics study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Antagonism and Sexual dimorphism. His Effective population size research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Ecology, Genetic drift, Nucleotide diversity and Genetic divergence.
