Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study Markus Knaden is best known for:

  • Insect
  • Pheromone
  • Larva

His research on Evolutionary biology often connects related areas such as Coevolution and Genetic algorithm. His research brings together the fields of Evolutionary biology and Coevolution. As part of his studies on Genetic algorithm, Markus Knaden often connects relevant subjects like Genetics. His Genetics study often links to related topics such as Yeast. He performs integrative Yeast and Gene research in his work. His Gene study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Drosophila (subgenus). Neuroscience and Computational biology are two areas of study in which he engages in interdisciplinary research. Borrowing concepts from Neuroscience, he weaves in ideas under Computational biology. His work on Ecology is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Foraging.

His most cited work include:

  • A Conserved Dedicated Olfactory Circuit for Detecting Harmful Microbes in Drosophila (478 citations)
  • Pheromones mediating copulation and attraction in Drosophila (201 citations)
  • Olfactory Specialization in Drosophila suzukii Supports an Ecological Shift in Host Preference from Rotten to Fresh Fruit (166 citations)

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

Drosophila melanogaster and Drosophila (subgenus) are the subject areas of his Gene study. Markus Knaden integrates many fields, such as Drosophila melanogaster and Gene, in his works. Many of his studies on Ecology involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Host (biology). As part of his studies on Host (biology), he often connects relevant subjects like Ecology. His Olfactory cues research extends to the thematically linked field of Neuroscience. His Olfactory cues study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Neuroscience. Markus Knaden integrates several fields in his works, including Olfaction and Pheromone. He performs integrative Pheromone and Olfaction research in his work. His study ties his expertise on Nest (protein structural motif) together with the subject of Biochemistry.

Markus Knaden most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (63.77%)
  • Neuroscience (63.77%)
  • Olfaction (49.28%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2019-2022)?

  • Neuroscience (66.67%)
  • Evolutionary biology (66.67%)
  • Ecology (66.67%)

In recent works Markus Knaden was focusing on the following fields of study:

Markus Knaden links adjacent fields of study such as Genetic algorithm, Coevolution and Function (biology) in the subject of Evolutionary biology. Genetic algorithm is closely attributed to Genetics in his study. His Genetics study frequently links to other fields, such as Sex pheromone. His Coevolution study typically links adjacent topics like Evolutionary biology. He integrates many fields, such as Function (biology) and Gene, in his works. Markus Knaden undertakes interdisciplinary study in the fields of Gene and Genome through his works. His multidisciplinary approach integrates Genome and Olfactory receptor in his work. Markus Knaden integrates Neuroscience and Computational biology in his studies. He incorporates Computational biology and Neuroscience in his studies.

Between 2019 and 2022, his most popular works were:

  • Olfactory receptor and circuit evolution promote host specialization (102 citations)
  • The Molecular Basis of Host Selection in a Crucifer-Specialized Moth (41 citations)
  • Mate discrimination among subspecies through a conserved olfactory pathway (34 citations)
