Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Bacteria
  • Microbiology

Michael Goodfellow spends much of his time researching Microbiology, Botany, Biochemistry, Bacteria and Streptomyces. His Microbiology research includes themes of Genetics, 16S ribosomal RNA, Actinobacteria, Actinomycetales and Nocardia. The various areas that he examines in his 16S ribosomal RNA study include Ribosomal RNA, DNA sequencing and Ribosomal DNA, Phylogenetic tree.

His studies deal with areas such as Micromonospora and Micromonosporaceae as well as Botany. His research investigates the connection between Biochemistry and topics such as Mycobacterium that intersect with problems in Tuberculostearic acid. His Bacteria research includes elements of Chromatography, Strain and Terpenoid.

His most cited work include:

  • Nucleic acid techniques in bacterial systematics (3954 citations)
  • AN INTEGRATED PROCEDURE FOR THE EXTRACTION OF BACTERIAL ISOPRENOID QUINONES AND POLAR LIPIDS (3860 citations)
  • Distribution of Menaquinones in Actinomycetes and Corynebacteria (1691 citations)

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

Microbiology, Botany, 16S ribosomal RNA, Streptomyces and Phylogenetic tree are his primary areas of study. Michael Goodfellow has included themes like Nocardia, Mycobacterium, Bacteria, Actinomycetales and Strain in his Microbiology study. His Bacteria study typically links adjacent topics like Biochemistry.

His study in Botany is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Amycolatopsis, Soil microbiology and Actinobacteria. Michael Goodfellow interconnects Phylogenetics, Clade, Ribosomal RNA, Strain and Taxonomy in the investigation of issues within 16S ribosomal RNA. He does research in Streptomyces, focusing on Streptomycetaceae specifically.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Microbiology (39.97%)
  • Botany (31.76%)
  • 16S ribosomal RNA (30.72%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Botany (31.76%)
  • 16S ribosomal RNA (30.72%)
  • Phylogenetic tree (16.58%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Botany, 16S ribosomal RNA, Phylogenetic tree, Strain and Phylogenetics. The study incorporates disciplines such as Clade, Actinomycetales, Streptomyces, Actinobacteria and Soil microbiology in addition to Botany. His Streptomyces research incorporates themes from Antibiotics, Biochemistry and Sequence analysis.

His 16S ribosomal RNA research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Subclade, Ribosomal RNA, Strain, Microbiology and Genus. His Microbiology research focuses on Rhodococcus equi and how it relates to Rhodococcus. The Phylogenetic tree study which covers Systematics that intersects with Evolutionary biology and Phylum.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genome-Based Taxonomic Classification of the Phylum Actinobacteria (161 citations)
  • Mycetoma: a unique neglected tropical disease (112 citations)
  • Induction of diverse secondary metabolites in Aspergillus fumigatus by microbial co-culture (68 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Bacteria
  • Microbiology

Michael Goodfellow focuses on Phylogenetic tree, Actinobacteria, Botany, Phylogenetics and Strain. His work in Phylogenetic tree addresses subjects such as Streptomyces, which are connected to disciplines such as Sequence analysis. His research in Botany is mostly focused on Elaeagnus.

His Strain research is multidisciplinary, relying on both 16S ribosomal RNA, Lineage, Genotype and Genome size. In 16S ribosomal RNA, Michael Goodfellow works on issues like Ribosomal RNA, which are connected to Streptomyces fragilis, Nocardia, Nocardiosis, Soil microbiology and Diamino acid. His study in Microbiology focuses on Geotrichum in particular.
