Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genome
  • DNA

James O. McInerney mainly focuses on Genome, Phylogenetics, Genetics, Gene and Phylogenetic tree. He works mostly in the field of Genome, limiting it down to concerns involving Lineage and, occasionally, Gene flow, Adaptation, Arctic, Population genomics and Botany. His Evolutionary biology research extends to Phylogenetics, which is thematically connected.

His Genetics research integrates issues from Retinal and Opsin. In general Gene, his work in Genome evolution, Gene family, Effective population size and Codon usage bias is often linked to Borrelia burgdorferi linking many areas of study. His work on Supertree and Rate of evolution as part of general Phylogenetic tree research is often related to Software, Source code and Inference, thus linking different fields of science.

His most cited work include:

  • New approaches for unravelling reassortment pathways (422 citations)
  • Population genomics reveal recent speciation and rapid evolutionary adaptation in polar bears. (248 citations)
  • Replicational and transcriptional selection on codon usage in Borrelia burgdorferi (215 citations)

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

His main research concerns Gene, Genetics, Evolutionary biology, Genome and Phylogenetics. His research on Gene frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Natural selection. His work in Evolutionary biology tackles topics such as Archaea which are related to areas like Ribosomal RNA.

His research integrates issues of Plasmid, Computational biology and Function in his study of Genome. His Phylogenetics research includes themes of Lineage, Comparative genomics and Phylogenetic tree. His Clade, Supertree and Phylogenomics study in the realm of Phylogenetic tree interacts with subjects such as Tree and Theoretical computer science.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Gene (60.87%)
  • Genetics (48.55%)
  • Evolutionary biology (48.55%)

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

  • Gene (60.87%)
  • Genome (49.28%)
  • Evolutionary biology (48.55%)

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

James O. McInerney mostly deals with Gene, Genome, Evolutionary biology, Horizontal gene transfer and Prokaryote. His study in Phylogenetic tree, Gene family, Phylogenetics, Eukaryote and Genetic variation falls within the category of Gene. His Phylogenetics study deals with the bigger picture of Genetics.

The various areas that James O. McInerney examines in his Genome study include Plasmid, Computational biology, Function and Microbiology. James O. McInerney has researched Evolutionary biology in several fields, including Epistasis, Genome evolution, Natural selection and Population genetics. His Prokaryote research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Order, Population structure and Mobile genetic elements.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Why prokaryotes have pangenomes (170 citations)
  • Combined analysis of variation in core, accessory and regulatory genome regions provides a super-resolution view into the evolution of bacterial populations (110 citations)
  • Combined analysis of variation in core, accessory and regulatory genome regions provides a super-resolution view into the evolution of bacterial populations (110 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genome
  • DNA

James O. McInerney focuses on Gene, Genome, Phylogenetics, Evolutionary biology and Horizontal gene transfer. James O. McInerney combines subjects such as Effective population size, Genetic variation, Population genetics, Ecological niche and Fixation with his study of Genome. His Phylogenetics study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Genetics.

His research in Evolutionary biology intersects with topics in Order, Prokaryote, Population structure and Cell. His studies in Horizontal gene transfer integrate themes in fields like Plasmid, Gene transfer, Prokaryotic cells, Gene flow and Computational biology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Evolution of cells, Genome evolution and Regulatory sequence.
