Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Agronomy
  • Botany
  • Horticulture

John W. Wilcut mostly deals with Agronomy, Glyphosate, Weed, Horticulture and Weed control. John W. Wilcut performs integrative study on Agronomy and After treatment in his works. His Glyphosate study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Pesticide resistance, Pesticide and Malvaceae.

His research integrates issues of Sowing, Yield, Crop and Lint in his study of Weed. His work on Arachis hypogaea and Cyperus rotundus as part of his general Horticulture study is frequently connected to Toxicity, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. The various areas that John W. Wilcut examines in his Weed control study include Lambsquarters and Tillage.

His most cited work include:

  • Tolerance and accumulation of shikimic acid in response to glyphosate applications in glyphosate-resistant and nonglyphosate-resistant cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.). (124 citations)
  • Weed Efficacy Evaluations for Bromoxynil, Glufosinate, Glyphosate, Pyrithiobac, and Sulfosate (114 citations)
  • Cost and weed management with herbicide programs in glyphosate-resistant cotton (Gossypium hirsutum). (87 citations)

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

John W. Wilcut spends much of his time researching Agronomy, Weed control, Horticulture, Weed and Glyphosate. His studies in Arachis hypogaea, Lambsquarters, Bentazon, Sowing and Metolachlor are all subfields of Agronomy research. While the research belongs to areas of Weed control, he spends his time largely on the problem of Crop, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Yield.

His studies in Horticulture integrate themes in fields like Pesticide and Botany. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Gossypium hirsutum and Growing season. In his research, Gossypium is intimately related to Malvaceae, which falls under the overarching field of Glyphosate.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (78.11%)
  • Weed control (36.32%)
  • Horticulture (26.87%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2014)?

  • Agronomy (78.11%)
  • Weed control (36.32%)
  • Glyphosate (25.37%)

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

His main research concerns Agronomy, Weed control, Glyphosate, Weed and Glufosinate. All of his Agronomy and Lint, Amaranth, Pesticide resistance, Arachis hypogaea and Metolachlor investigations are sub-components of the entire Agronomy study. His work deals with themes such as Lambsquarters, Tillage and Sowing, which intersect with Weed control.

His research in Glyphosate intersects with topics in Conventional tillage and Fluometuron. His Weed research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Shoot, Crop and Growing season. His work carried out in the field of Glufosinate brings together such families of science as Imazapyr, Ipomoea lacunosa, Amaranthus palmeri and Digitaria sanguinalis.

Between 2005 and 2014, his most popular works were:

  • U.S. Grower Views on Problematic Weeds and Changes in Weed Pressure in Glyphosate-Resistant Corn, Cotton, and Soybean Cropping Systems (76 citations)
  • Palmer Amaranth Interference and Seed Production in Peanut (57 citations)
  • U.S. Farmer Awareness of Glyphosate-Resistant Weeds and Resistance Management Strategies (43 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Agronomy
  • Pesticide

His primary scientific interests are in Agronomy, Weed, Weed control, Glufosinate and Amaranth. His study in Pesticide resistance, Arachis hypogaea, Malvaceae and Point of delivery falls under the purview of Agronomy. His research in Arachis hypogaea intersects with topics in Chlorosis and Sowing.

The concepts of his Weed study are interwoven with issues in Growing season, Poaceae, Yield and Crop. His Weed control study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Glyphosate. His study focuses on the intersection of Glufosinate and fields such as Lambsquarters with connections in the field of Late season, Lint and Pendimethalin.
