What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Botany, Host, Herbivore, Jasmonic acid and Ecology.
The concepts of his Botany study are interwoven with issues in Plant defense against herbivory, Inbreeding, Inbreeding depression and Parasitic plant.
His research integrates issues of Vector, Virology, Plant virus, Aphid and Cucurbita pepo in his study of Host.
The Aphid study combines topics in areas such as Genetics and Cucumber mosaic virus.
His Herbivore research integrates issues from Lymantria dispar, Insect, Caterpillar and Heliothis virescens.
His Heliothis virescens study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Green leaf volatiles and Nicotiana tabacum.
His most cited work include:
- Caterpillar-induced nocturnal plant volatiles repel conspecific females (766 citations)
- Plant defense priming against herbivores: getting ready for a different battle. (351 citations)
- Deceptive chemical signals induced by a plant virus attract insect vectors to inferior hosts (340 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Mark C. Mescher spends much of his time researching Botany, Herbivore, Ecology, Plant defense against herbivory and Host.
His Botany study which covers Parasitic plant that intersects with Cuscuta.
His Herbivore study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Zoology, Solanum, Caterpillar, Inbreeding and Insect.
His Foraging, Range, Predation and Ecology study, which is part of a larger body of work in Ecology, is frequently linked to Sensory cue, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His Plant defense against herbivory research focuses on subjects like Solidago altissima, which are linked to Gall and Eurosta solidaginis.
His Host research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Plant virus, Virus and Vector.
He most often published in these fields:
- Botany (50.36%)
- Herbivore (51.82%)
- Ecology (43.07%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?
- Herbivore (51.82%)
- Zoology (16.79%)
- Plant defense against herbivory (26.28%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary areas of investigation include Herbivore, Zoology, Plant defense against herbivory, Solidago altissima and Aphid.
His Herbivore research entails a greater understanding of Botany.
His work on Parasitoid as part of general Botany study is frequently linked to Rhizobacteria, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.
His study in Zoology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Pieris brassicae, Inbreeding, Inbreeding depression, Reproduction and Insect.
His Plant defense against herbivory study incorporates themes from Arabidopsis thaliana, Chemical defense, Horticulture, Trichome and Pseudomonas.
He has included themes like Rhopalosiphum maidis, Sorghum and Alate in his Aphid study.
Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- Variation in growth and defence traits among plant populations at different elevations: Implications for adaptation to climate change (12 citations)
- Bumble bees damage plant leaves and accelerate flower production when pollen is scarce (10 citations)
- A key floral scent component (β‐trans‐bergamotene) drives pollinator preferences independently of pollen rewards in seep monkeyflower (10 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
Mark C. Mescher mainly focuses on Herbivore, Plant defense against herbivory, Horticulture, Pollinator and Pollen.
Mark C. Mescher integrates Herbivore with Esfenvalerate in his research.
His work deals with themes such as Gall, Alate, Plant physiology, Pesticide and Priming, which intersect with Plant defense against herbivory.
His work in the fields of Horticulture, such as Lymantria dispar and Vaccinium macrocarpon, overlaps with other areas such as Sparganothis.
The concepts of his Pollinator study are interwoven with issues in Environmental change, Key, Phenology and Mimulus guttatus.
Botany covers Mark C. Mescher research in Pollen.
