Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Agronomy
  • Gene

John M. Clarke mainly focuses on Agronomy, Cultivar, Quantitative trait locus, Plant breeding and Genetics. His research on Agronomy often connects related areas such as Chromosomal translocation. His Cultivar research is classified as research in Botany.

His study in Botany is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Food science, Gluten, Yield and Genotype. His research in Quantitative trait locus focuses on subjects like Gene mapping, which are connected to Genetic marker. His Plant breeding research incorporates themes from Embryo rescue, Ploidy, Genetic variation and Crop.

His most cited work include:

  • Metals and micronutrients – food safety issues (711 citations)
  • Selection and breeding of plant cultivars to minimize cadmium accumulation. (333 citations)
  • Evaluation of methods for quantification of drought tolerance in wheat (224 citations)

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

John M. Clarke mainly investigates Agronomy, Cultivar, Poaceae, Botany and Grain yield. John M. Clarke frequently studies issues relating to Plant disease resistance and Agronomy. John M. Clarke has included themes like Loose smut, Common wheat, Common bunt, Triticale and Gluten in his Cultivar study.

His Common wheat study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Quantitative trait locus and Gene mapping. His research integrates issues of Field experiment, New Variety and Pyrenophora in his study of Poaceae. He has researched Botany in several fields, including Genotype and Horticulture.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (67.62%)
  • Cultivar (53.33%)
  • Poaceae (23.33%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Agronomy (67.62%)
  • Cultivar (53.33%)
  • Grain yield (16.67%)

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

John M. Clarke focuses on Agronomy, Cultivar, Grain yield, Production area and Quantitative trait locus. His Agronomy research incorporates elements of Common bunt and Fusarium. In his articles, John M. Clarke combines various disciplines, including Cultivar and Abiotic component.

His Grain yield research focuses on Yield and how it connects with Maturity. His work deals with themes such as Plant disease resistance and Germplasm, which intersect with Quantitative trait locus. His Genetics research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Genetic diversity and Plant breeding.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Durum wheat genome highlights past domestication signatures and future improvement targets (180 citations)
  • Application of molecular markers to wheat breeding in Canada (85 citations)
  • A consensus framework map of durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.) suitable for linkage disequilibrium analysis and genome-wide association mapping (53 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Gene
  • Agronomy

John M. Clarke spends much of his time researching Quantitative trait locus, Agronomy, Genetics, Cultivar and Germplasm. The various areas that he examines in his Agronomy study include Sprouting, Fusarium, Moisture stress, Abiotic stress and Doubled haploidy. His work on Locus, Association mapping, Microsatellite and Linkage disequilibrium as part of general Genetics study is frequently linked to Diversity Arrays Technology, bridging the gap between disciplines.

He is involved in the study of Cultivar that focuses on Stem rust in particular. His work carried out in the field of Stem rust brings together such families of science as Plant disease resistance, Common bunt and Glutenin. The concepts of his Germplasm study are interwoven with issues in Gene pool and Mycotoxin, Head blight.
