Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Ecology

Michael G. Ritchie mainly focuses on Evolutionary biology, Sexual selection, Genetics, Ecology and Courtship. His Evolutionary biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Adaptation, Subspecies, Sympatry and Molecular phylogenetics. His Sexual selection research includes themes of Developmental psychology, Mate choice, Mating and Genetic algorithm.

His work investigates the relationship between Courtship and topics such as Reproductive isolation that intersect with problems in Species complex and Drosophila willistoni. His work carried out in the field of Drosophila mojavensis brings together such families of science as Drosophila sechellia, Molecular evolution, Drosophila Protein, Genomics and Drosophila yakuba. His Genome research incorporates elements of Sociality and Phylogenetics.

His most cited work include:

  • Evolution of genes and genomes on the Drosophila phylogeny. (1731 citations)
  • Hybridization and speciation (1223 citations)
  • Sexual Selection and Speciation (520 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Evolutionary biology, Ecology, Sexual selection, Genetics and Mating. Michael G. Ritchie is interested in Genetic algorithm, which is a field of Evolutionary biology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Zoology and Hybrid zone.

As a member of one scientific family, Michael G. Ritchie mostly works in the field of Sexual selection, focusing on Drosophila pseudoobscura and, on occasion, Experimental evolution. His study in the field of Mating system and Nuptial gift is also linked to topics like Demography. The study incorporates disciplines such as Allopatric speciation, Drosophila mojavensis and Incipient speciation in addition to Reproductive isolation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Evolutionary biology (48.11%)
  • Ecology (27.36%)
  • Sexual selection (25.94%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Evolutionary biology (48.11%)
  • Sexual selection (25.94%)
  • Drosophila (7.55%)

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

Michael G. Ritchie mostly deals with Evolutionary biology, Sexual selection, Drosophila, Drosophila melanogaster and Zoology. His Evolutionary biology research includes elements of Teleogryllus oceanicus, Genome, Mating, Adaptation and Genetic variation. The various areas that he examines in his Mating study include Courtship and Reproductive success.

His Sexual selection study incorporates themes from Interspecific competition, Drosophila pseudoobscura, Reproductive isolation, Species richness and Sperm. His Drosophila melanogaster research is included under the broader classification of Genetics. He is studying Allele, which is a component of Genetics.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Sexual selection predicts species richness across the animal kingdom. (28 citations)
  • Genomic Analysis of European Drosophila melanogaster Populations Reveals Longitudinal Structure, Continent-Wide Selection, and Previously Unknown DNA Viruses (23 citations)
  • Inter and Intraspecific Genomic Divergence in Drosophila montana Shows Evidence for Cold Adaptation. (17 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Ecology

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Evolutionary biology, Adaptation, Drosophila, Population genomics and Genetic variation. He integrates Evolutionary biology with Biological sciences in his research. His studies deal with areas such as Genome and Teleogryllus oceanicus, Field cricket as well as Adaptation.

His Drosophila study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Courtship and Courtship display. As a part of the same scientific family, Michael G. Ritchie mostly works in the field of Intraspecific competition, focusing on Allopatric speciation and, on occasion, Reproductive isolation. His Ecology research is mostly focused on the topic Sexual selection.
