Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Photosynthesis

Malcolm C. Press mostly deals with Ecology, Botany, Arctic, Shrub and Growing season. His work on Biomass, Abiotic component, Dryas octopetala and Phenology as part of general Ecology research is frequently linked to Environmental science, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. Malcolm C. Press focuses mostly in the field of Abiotic component, narrowing it down to topics relating to Range and, in certain cases, Herbivore and Global change.

His Botany study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Animal science. His work in Arctic covers topics such as Subarctic climate which are related to areas like Ecosystem, Graminoid, Terrestrial ecosystem, Deciduous and Betula nana. He has researched Growing season in several fields, including Vaccinium myrtillus, Evergreen and Horticulture.

His most cited work include:

  • Herbivory in global climate change research: direct effects of rising temperature on insect herbivores (1725 citations)
  • Global change and arctic ecosystems: is lichen decline a function of increases in vascular plant biomass? (363 citations)
  • Impacts of parasitic plants on natural communities. (318 citations)

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

Malcolm C. Press mainly investigates Botany, Ecology, Photosynthesis, Agronomy and Parasitic plant. His studies in Botany integrate themes in fields like Host, Nutrient and Horticulture. The Climate change, Arctic, Herbivore and Arctic vegetation research Malcolm C. Press does as part of his general Ecology study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Environmental science, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

His Climate change research incorporates themes from Phenology and Temperate climate. His work in the fields of Photosynthesis, such as Stomatal conductance, Photosynthetic capacity and Carbon fixation, overlaps with other areas such as Dryobalanops lanceolata. His Parasitic plant research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Shoot, Xylem, Dry matter and Striga hermonthica.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (56.47%)
  • Ecology (35.29%)
  • Photosynthesis (34.12%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2013)?

  • Ecology (35.29%)
  • Quantitative trait locus (3.53%)
  • Botany (56.47%)

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

Ecology, Quantitative trait locus, Botany, Agronomy and Backcrossing are his primary areas of study. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Seedling and Ecology. His Quantitative trait locus research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Striga hermonthica and Drug resistance.

His study brings together the fields of Abiotic component and Botany. His studies deal with areas such as Climate change and Ecosystem as well as Agronomy. His Backcrossing study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Germplasm, Host, Parasitic plant, Oryza and Striga.

Between 2005 and 2013, his most popular works were:

  • A novel form of resistance in rice to the angiosperm parasite Striga hermonthica (127 citations)
  • Striga infestation of cereal crops - an unsolved problem in resource limited agriculture. (114 citations)
  • Global patterns of gene expression in rice cultivars undergoing a susceptible or resistant interaction with the parasitic plant Striga hermonthica. (96 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Photosynthesis

His main research concerns Quantitative trait locus, Striga, Backcrossing, Striga hermonthica and Germplasm. His Quantitative trait locus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Host and Botany. His Host research integrates issues from Sorghum, Agronomy and Weed.

His Botany study combines topics in areas such as Oryza and Parasitic plant. His WRKY protein domain research spans across into areas like Drug resistance, Abiotic stress, Gene, ATP-binding cassette transporter and Gene expression. His Drug resistance study is concerned with Genetics in general.
