Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Genetics
  • Gene
  • Ecology

Drosophila melanogaster, Zoology, Fertility, Evolutionary biology and Drosophilidae are his primary areas of study. His work investigates the relationship between Drosophila melanogaster and topics such as Body size that intersect with problems in Phenotypic plasticity, Mutant and Selective advantage. His work on Fluctuating asymmetry as part of general Zoology study is frequently linked to Trait, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His Fertility research includes themes of Reproduction, Physiology and Longevity. His Evolutionary biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Genetics, Natural selection and Inbred strain. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Drosophilidae, Population genetics and Evolution of ageing is strongly linked to Larva.

His most cited work include:

  • Do sexual ornaments demonstrate heightened condition-dependent expression as predicted by the handicap hypothesis? (490 citations)
  • A cost of mating in female fruitflies (425 citations)
  • EVOLUTION AND DEVELOPMENT OF BODY SIZE AND CELL SIZE IN DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER IN RESPONSE TO TEMPERATURE. (343 citations)

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

Kevin Fowler focuses on Genetics, Zoology, Drosophila melanogaster, Evolutionary biology and Sexual selection. His Zoology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Fecundity, Ecology, Fertility and Sperm. His study in Fertility is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Longevity, Physiology and Reproduction.

His Drosophila melanogaster research focuses on subjects like Larva, which are linked to Anatomy. His studies in Evolutionary biology integrate themes in fields like Genetic correlation, Genetic variation, Inbreeding and Phenotypic plasticity. His work deals with themes such as Mate choice, Stalk-eyed fly and Sexual dimorphism, which intersect with Sexual selection.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (36.89%)
  • Zoology (38.83%)
  • Drosophila melanogaster (36.89%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Meiotic drive (10.68%)
  • Evolutionary biology (33.98%)
  • Drosophila melanogaster (36.89%)

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

Kevin Fowler focuses on Meiotic drive, Evolutionary biology, Drosophila melanogaster, Genetics and Sperm. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Zoology, Sexual selection, Mating, Stalk and Genetic element. His Zoology study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Fecundity.

His Evolutionary biology research incorporates elements of Drosophila and Sexual dimorphism. He has researched Drosophila melanogaster in several fields, including Balancing selection, Genetic variation, Reproductive success, Adaptation and Fitness landscape. Kevin Fowler has included themes like Fertility and X chromosome in his Sperm study.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genome-wide sexually antagonistic variants reveal long-standing constraints on sexual dimorphism in fruit flies (30 citations)
  • Sex and genotype effects on nutrient-dependent fitness landscapes in Drosophila melanogaster. (22 citations)
  • Dietary choices are influenced by genotype, mating status, and sex in Drosophila melanogaster. (17 citations)

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

  • Genetics
  • Gene
  • Ecology

Kevin Fowler mainly focuses on Sexual dimorphism, Evolutionary biology, Drosophila melanogaster, Sperm and Sexual selection. His Sexual dimorphism research incorporates themes from Evolutionary dynamics, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Phenotypic plasticity. His studies deal with areas such as Balancing selection, Natural selection and Genome-wide association study as well as Evolutionary biology.

His Drosophila melanogaster study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Range, Genotype, Mating and Sex specific. Kevin Fowler combines subjects such as Meiotic drive, Zoology, Fertility and Stalk-eyed fly with his study of Sperm. His Fertility research includes elements of Spermatheca, Meiosis, Spermatogenesis and Reproduction.
