Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Insect

Lynn M. Riddiford mostly deals with Juvenile hormone, Endocrinology, Manduca sexta, Metamorphosis and Cell biology. His Juvenile hormone research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Cuticle and Imaginal disc. His Endocrinology study combines topics in areas such as Drosophila melanogaster and Transcription factor.

Lynn M. Riddiford has researched Manduca sexta in several fields, including Ecdysteroid, Molecular biology, 20-Hydroxyecdysone and Gene isoform. His Metamorphosis research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Pupa, Instar, Nuclear receptor, Ecdysone receptor and Insect. His study on Epidermis is often connected to Arthropod Antennae as part of broader study in Cell biology.

His most cited work include:

  • Pheromone binding and inactivation by moth antennae (873 citations)
  • Cellular and Molecular Actions of Juvenile Hormone I. General Considerations and Premetamorphic Actions (500 citations)
  • Ecdysone receptors and their biological actions. (466 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Manduca sexta, Juvenile hormone, Endocrinology, Metamorphosis and Cell biology. His Manduca sexta study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Ecdysteroid, Ecdysis and Epidermis. His study in Juvenile hormone is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Drosophila melanogaster and Cuticle.

His Endocrinology research incorporates elements of Hemolymph and Instar. Within one scientific family, Lynn M. Riddiford focuses on topics pertaining to Insect under Metamorphosis, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Zoology and Hormone. His Cell biology research incorporates themes from Anatomy, Morphogenesis, Botany and Ecdysone receptor.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Manduca sexta (56.67%)
  • Juvenile hormone (50.00%)
  • Endocrinology (49.58%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2001-2020)?

  • Juvenile hormone (50.00%)
  • Metamorphosis (34.17%)
  • Endocrinology (49.58%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Juvenile hormone, Metamorphosis, Endocrinology, Cell biology and Drosophila melanogaster. His Juvenile hormone research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Ecdysteroid, Instar, Epidermis and Imaginal disc. Lynn M. Riddiford combines subjects such as Regulation of gene expression, Insect, Pupa and Moulting with his study of Metamorphosis.

Endocrinology and Manduca sexta are commonly linked in his work. A large part of his Manduca sexta studies is devoted to Manduca. His work carried out in the field of Cell biology brings together such families of science as Cuticle, Botany, Morphogenesis and Anatomy.

Between 2001 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • The Juvenile Hormone Signaling Pathway in Insect Development (438 citations)
  • Insights into the molecular basis of the hormonal control of molting and metamorphosis from Manduca sexta and Drosophila melanogaster. (424 citations)
  • The Role of the Prothoracic Gland in Determining Critical Weight for Metamorphosis in Drosophila melanogaster (353 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • Insect

His main research concerns Metamorphosis, Juvenile hormone, Endocrinology, Drosophila melanogaster and Cell biology. His work in Metamorphosis addresses issues such as Ecdysone receptor, which are connected to fields such as Ecdysis and Cellular differentiation. His work deals with themes such as Pupa and Epidermis, which intersect with Juvenile hormone.

His Endocrinology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Evolutionary biology and Manduca, Manduca sexta. The various areas that Lynn M. Riddiford examines in his Drosophila melanogaster study include Developmental biology and Corpus allatum. The study incorporates disciplines such as Morphogenesis, Anatomy and Imaginal disc in addition to Cell biology.
