Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Botany

Javier Francisco-Ortega spends much of his time researching Molecular phylogenetics, Monophyly, Botany, Evolutionary biology and Clade. Javier Francisco-Ortega has included themes like Genetics, Adaptive radiation, Tribe, Subgenus and Dioon in his Molecular phylogenetics study. Javier Francisco-Ortega interconnects Taxon and Genus in the investigation of issues within Monophyly.

His Genus research entails a greater understanding of Ecology. His research in Ecology intersects with topics in Biological dispersal, Inbreeding depression and Genetic diversity. His study explores the link between Evolutionary biology and topics such as Internal transcribed spacer that cross with problems in Ribosomal DNA.

His most cited work include:

  • Plant genetic diversity in the Canary Islands: a conservation perspective (264 citations)
  • A common origin for woody Sonchus and five related genera in the Macaronesian islands: molecular evidence for extensive radiation (209 citations)
  • Relationships of the Macaronesian and Mediterranean floras: molecular evidence for multiple colonizations into Macaronesia and back-colonization of the continent in Convolvulus (Convolvulaceae). (173 citations)

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

Javier Francisco-Ortega focuses on Ecology, Botany, Genus, Endemism and Monophyly. Javier Francisco-Ortega combines subjects such as Evolutionary biology and Clade, NdhF with his study of Botany. His study in Evolutionary biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Phylogeography and Adaptive radiation.

Javier Francisco-Ortega has researched Genus in several fields, including Lasiocroton, Polyphyly and Biogeography. As part of one scientific family, Javier Francisco-Ortega deals mainly with the area of Endemism, narrowing it down to issues related to the Biodiversity hotspot, and often Conservation status and Systematics. His work carried out in the field of Monophyly brings together such families of science as Maximum parsimony, Sister group, Lineage and Molecular phylogenetics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (76.67%)
  • Botany (43.89%)
  • Genus (28.89%)

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

  • Ecology (76.67%)
  • Botany (43.89%)
  • Zamia (12.22%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Botany, Zamia, Herbarium and Archaeology. His Ecology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Evolutionary biology and Genetic structure, Genetic diversity, Genetic variation. His Evolutionary biology research includes elements of Genetic distance, Biodiversity and Conservation genetics.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Agroforestry and Biogeography. His Zamia study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Phylogeography and Clade. His Archaeology research incorporates elements of Flora and Caribbean island.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Will the same ex situ protocols give similar results for closely related species (15 citations)
  • Will the same ex situ protocols give similar results for closely related species (15 citations)
  • A Time-Calibrated Species Tree Phylogeny of the New World Cycad Genus Zamia L. (Zamiaceae, Cycadales) (11 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Botany

Javier Francisco-Ortega mainly investigates Zamia, Ecology, Herbarium, Biodiversity and Species distribution. Javier Francisco-Ortega has included themes like Plant science, Genus, Zamiaceae and Biogeography in his Zamia study. His work on Critically endangered as part of his general Ecology study is frequently connected to Coccothrinax, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.

His studies in Herbarium integrate themes in fields like Floristics, Flora and Ethnology. His Biodiversity research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Evolutionary biology, Genetic distance and Microsatellite, Conservation genetics. The Species distribution study combines topics in areas such as Endangered plant species, Ecosystem, Physical geography and Phaedranassa.
