Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Botany

His primary areas of investigation include Biochemistry, Callosobruchus maculatus, Lectin, Midgut and Weevil. To a larger extent, he studies Botany with the aim of understanding Callosobruchus maculatus. His Botany research includes themes of Wheat germ agglutinin and Microbiology.

His Lectin study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Plant defense against herbivory, Protease and Galactose. His research in Midgut intersects with topics in Melanogaster, Drosophila melanogaster, Cytochrome P450 and Genetics. The subject of his Weevil research is within the realm of Agronomy.

His most cited work include:

  • Transgenic Pea Seeds Expressing the α-Amylase Inhibitor of the Common Bean are Resistant to Bruchid Beetles (288 citations)
  • Cysteine digestive proteinases in Coleoptera (195 citations)
  • Lipoxygenase Trypsin Inhibitor, and Lectin from Soybeans: Effects on Larval Growth of Manduca sexta (Lepidoptera: Sphingidae) (147 citations)

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

Larry L. Murdock spends much of his time researching Callosobruchus maculatus, Agronomy, Biochemistry, Botany and Horticulture. Larry L. Murdock has included themes like Vigna, Larva, Plastic bag and Weevil in his Callosobruchus maculatus study. His study looks at the relationship between Weevil and topics such as Cysteine, which overlap with Recombinant DNA.

As a part of the same scientific family, Larry L. Murdock mostly works in the field of Agronomy, focusing on Postharvest and, on occasion, Stored grain. His Biochemistry study frequently links to other fields, such as Midgut. The concepts of his Botany study are interwoven with issues in Complementary DNA, Bioassay and Single layer.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Callosobruchus maculatus (28.80%)
  • Agronomy (27.20%)
  • Biochemistry (23.20%)

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

  • Agronomy (27.20%)
  • Postharvest (12.00%)
  • Crop (12.80%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Agronomy, Postharvest, Crop, Horticulture and Germination. Larry L. Murdock interconnects Moisture and Abiotic component in the investigation of issues within Agronomy. The study incorporates disciplines such as Callosobruchus maculatus, PEST analysis, Stored grain and Reproductive success in addition to Postharvest.

His Callosobruchus maculatus study introduces a deeper knowledge of Botany. His Crop study incorporates themes from Arachis hypogaea, Legume and Maruca vitrata. The Grain weight and Cajanus research Larry L. Murdock does as part of his general Horticulture study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Humidity and Triple layer, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Storage of Maize in Purdue Improved Crop Storage (PICS) Bags. (22 citations)
  • Hypoxia Treatment of Callosobruchus maculatus Females and Its Effects on Reproductive Output and Development of Progeny Following Exposure. (11 citations)
  • An assessment of the risk of Bt-cowpea to non-target organisms in west Africa (10 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Botany

His scientific interests lie mostly in Agronomy, Crop, Germination, Postharvest and Grain quality. His research related to Vigna and Maruca vitrata might be considered part of Agronomy. His Crop research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Legume, Agriculture, Subsistence agriculture, Fauna and Arid.

His Germination study deals with the bigger picture of Horticulture. His Postharvest study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Callosobruchus maculatus, Reproductive success, Animal science and Sweet sorghum. His research investigates the connection between Grain quality and topics such as Sitophilus that intersect with problems in Integrated pest management.
