Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Genus

Karol Marhold mostly deals with Cardamine, Genetics, Botany, Polyploid and Evolutionary biology. His Cardamine study improves the overall literature in Brassicaceae. The study incorporates disciplines such as Chloroplast DNA, Plant genetics and Reticulate evolution in addition to Genetics.

In general Botany, his work in Taxon, Nomenclature and Centaurea stoebe is often linked to Chalcone synthase linking many areas of study. His work deals with themes such as Genome size, Nuclear gene, Internal transcribed spacer and Introgression, which intersect with Polyploid. His work carried out in the field of Evolutionary biology brings together such families of science as Plant ecology, Asteraceae, Centaurea and Sympatric speciation.

His most cited work include:

  • International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (Melbourne Code) (712 citations)
  • International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (Melbourne Code) adopted by the Eighteenth International Botanical Congress Melbourne, Australia (511 citations)
  • International Code of Nomenclature for algae, fungi, and plants (Shenzhen Code) adopted by the Nineteenth International Botanical Congress Shenzhen, China, July 2017 (465 citations)

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

Karol Marhold mainly focuses on Botany, Taxon, Brassicaceae, Taxonomy and Cardamine. His Botany research includes themes of Subspecies, Amplified fragment length polymorphism and Morphometrics. His Taxon study is concerned with the larger field of Ecology.

The Brassicaceae study combines topics in areas such as Cardamine amara and Genus. His research integrates issues of Polyploid and Biogeography in his study of Cardamine. His research in Polyploid intersects with topics in Evolutionary biology, Genetics, Genetic variation and Genome size.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (67.46%)
  • Taxon (44.84%)
  • Brassicaceae (38.49%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Evolutionary biology (35.32%)
  • Genetics (30.16%)
  • Chromosome (10.32%)

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

Evolutionary biology, Genetics, Chromosome, Arabidopsis arenosa and Polyploid are his primary areas of study. His Evolutionary biology research integrates issues from Range, Allopatric speciation and Gene flow, Genetic structure, Genetic variation. His Genetic structure research incorporates elements of Plant ecology and Ecology.

His study looks at the relationship between Arabidopsis arenosa and topics such as Niche differentiation, which overlap with Genetic diversity and Demographic history. His Polyploid study frequently links to other fields, such as Cardamine. His studies in Cardamine integrate themes in fields like Chromosomal inversion, Karyotype and Genome evolution.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Pervasive population genomic consequences of genome duplication in Arabidopsis arenosa. (37 citations)
  • Pervasive population genomic consequences of genome duplication in Arabidopsis arenosa. (37 citations)
  • The story of promiscuous crucifers: origin and genome evolution of an invasive species, Cardamine occulta (Brassicaceae), and its relatives (12 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Genus

His primary scientific interests are in Evolutionary biology, Arabidopsis arenosa, Polyploid, Karyotype and Genome evolution. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Ecological niche, Genetic structure, Demographic history, Genetic variation and Niche differentiation. His study in Arabidopsis arenosa is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Population genetics, Gene flow, Genetic diversity, Genomics and Negative selection.

His Polyploid research includes elements of Allopatric speciation, Incipient speciation, Species complex, Repens and Disjunct. The study of Karyotype is intertwined with the study of Cardamine in a number of ways.
