Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • DNA

Luther E. Talbert focuses on Genetics, Genetic variation, Agronomy, Cultivar and Genetic diversity. His Genetics research focuses on Genome, Genetic marker, Ploidy, DNA sequencing and Sequence-tagged site. Directional selection is the focus of his Genetic variation research.

His work in the fields of Agronomy, such as Poaceae, intersects with other areas such as Spring and Seed specific. His work deals with themes such as Transgenic lines and Starch, which intersect with Cultivar. His Genetic diversity research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Molecular marker, SNP genotyping, Population bottleneck, Domestication and Genotype.

His most cited work include:

  • Genome-wide comparative diversity uncovers multiple targets of selection for improvement in hexaploid wheat landraces and cultivars. (664 citations)
  • Enhanced ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase activity in wheat endosperm increases seed yield (261 citations)
  • Population- and genome-specific patterns of linkage disequilibrium and SNP variation in spring and winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) (168 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Cultivar, Genetics, Poaceae and Spring. When carried out as part of a general Agronomy research project, his work on Germplasm, Yield and Infestation is frequently linked to work in Spring and Engineering, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His work focuses on many connections between Cultivar and other disciplines, such as Quantitative trait locus, that overlap with his field of interest in Sawfly.

In his study, Genetic variation is strongly linked to Genetic diversity, which falls under the umbrella field of Genetics. Luther E. Talbert has researched Poaceae in several fields, including Field experiment, Sowing, New Variety, Wheat flour and Protein content. In his research on the topic of Botany, Wheat streak mosaic virus is strongly related with Plant disease resistance.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (55.24%)
  • Cultivar (37.76%)
  • Genetics (29.37%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Agronomy (55.24%)
  • Quantitative trait locus (16.78%)
  • Allele (14.69%)

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

Luther E. Talbert spends much of his time researching Agronomy, Quantitative trait locus, Allele, Sawfly and Genetics. In general Agronomy study, his work on Cultivar and Germplasm often relates to the realm of Spring and Spring, thereby connecting several areas of interest. Luther E. Talbert combines subjects such as PEST analysis, Pith, Genotype and Introgression with his study of Cultivar.

His work in Allele addresses issues such as Botany, which are connected to fields such as Plant biochemistry. His Sawfly study incorporates themes from Genetic variation, Resistance and Genetic diversity. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Negative selection, Genome and Directional selection.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • A haplotype map of allohexaploid wheat reveals distinct patterns of selection on homoeologous genomes (151 citations)
  • The genetic architecture of genome‐wide recombination rate variation in allopolyploid wheat revealed by nested association mapping (49 citations)
  • Association Analysis of Stem Solidness and Wheat Stem Sawfly Resistance in a Panel of North American Spring Wheat Germplasm (24 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • DNA

Quantitative trait locus, Genetics, Botany, Allele and Sawfly are his primary areas of study. His study involves Plant disease resistance, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genetic marker, Gene mapping and Haplotype, a branch of Genetics. His Genetic marker research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Agronomy, Genetic load and Genetic architecture.

His research in Allele focuses on subjects like Genetic diversity, which are connected to Host and Infestation. Sawfly is frequently linked to Genetic variation in his study. The concepts of his Genetic variation study are interwoven with issues in Genetic variability, Resistance and Genetic association.
