Lavern W. Timmer

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Botany
• Ecology
• Fungus

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Botany, Colletotrichum acutatum, Alternaria alternata, Fungi imperfecti and Alternaria. Botany is closely attributed to Horticulture in his study. His Horticulture research includes elements of Windbreak and Xanthomonas campestris.

His research in Colletotrichum acutatum intersects with topics in Fungicide, Benomyl, Abscission, Colletotrichum and Petal. His Alternaria alternata course of study focuses on Alternaria citri and Phylogenetics. The study incorporates disciplines such as Host, Leaf spot and Rough lemon in addition to Alternaria.

His most cited work include:

• Compendium of citrus diseases. (259 citations)
• Lifestyles of Colletotrichum acutatum. (205 citations)
• Molecular systematics of citrus-associated Alternaria species. (139 citations)

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

Lavern W. Timmer mostly deals with Botany, Horticulture, Rutaceae, Fungicide and Alternaria. The Botany study combines topics in areas such as Colletotrichum acutatum and Inoculation. As part of one scientific family, Lavern W. Timmer deals mainly with the area of Rutaceae, narrowing it down to issues related to the Phytophthora nicotianae, and often Phycomycetes.

His research in the fields of Benomyl and Metalaxyl overlaps with other disciplines such as Disease control. His work investigates the relationship between Alternaria and topics such as Alternaria alternata that intersect with problems in Alternaria citri, Spore, Host and Tangor. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Elsinoë fawcettii and Leaf spot.

He most often published in these fields:

• Botany (70.10%)
• Horticulture (54.64%)
• Rutaceae (36.08%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2015)?

• Botany (70.10%)
• Horticulture (54.64%)
• Fungicide (29.90%)

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

His primary areas of study are Botany, Horticulture, Fungicide, Orange and Inoculation. Botany is closely attributed to Colletotrichum acutatum in his research. His studies deal with areas such as Ribosomal RNA and Blight as well as Colletotrichum acutatum.

He combines subjects such as Alternaria alternata and Tangor with his study of Fungicide. In his research on the topic of Abscission, Petal is strongly related with Conidium. He focuses mostly in the field of Rutaceae, narrowing it down to matters related to Citrus fruit and, in some cases, Fresh market and Colonization.

Between 2005 and 2015, his most popular works were:

• Discord between morphological and phylogenetic species boundaries: incomplete lineage sorting and recombination results in fuzzy species boundaries in an asexual fungal pathogen (56 citations)
• Postbloom fruit drop of citrus and key lime anthracnose are caused by distinct phylogenetic lineages of Colletotrichum acutatum. (46 citations)
• Comparison of Molecular Procedures for Detection and Identification of Guignardia citricarpa and G. mangiferae. (40 citations)

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

• Botany
• Ecology
• Genetics

Lavern W. Timmer spends much of his time researching Botany, Orange, Guignardia, Citrus black spot and Horticulture. His work on Fungi imperfecti as part of general Botany study is frequently linked to Intergenic region, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. His studies in Fungi imperfecti integrate themes in fields like Colletotrichum and Colletotrichum acutatum, Colletotrichum fragariae.

His Guignardia study incorporates themes from Tangor, Pyrimethanil, Fungicide and Rutaceae. His Citrus black spot research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Biotechnology, Fludioxonil and Postharvest. His work deals with themes such as Elsinoë fawcettii, Elsinoë, Rough lemon and Ascomycota, which intersect with Genetic analysis.
