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

  • Gene
  • Botany
  • DNA

His scientific interests lie mostly in Botany, Gene, Genetics, Transcriptome and Abscission. As part of his studies on Botany, Manuel Talon often connects relevant areas like Horticulture. His study in Gene concentrates on Gene expression, Gene expression profiling, Whole genome sequencing, Genetic marker and Single-nucleotide polymorphism.

His Transcriptome study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sugar, Ripening and Receptor. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Abscission, narrowing it down to issues related to the Gene family, and often Cell wall and Cell wall modification. The various areas that Manuel Talon examines in his Genome study include Meiosis, Linkage disequilibrium, Panicle, Genetic association and Japonica.
