Murray B. Isman

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Botany
• Ecology
• Insect

His scientific interests lie mostly in Botany, Essential oil, Biotechnology, Azadirachtin and Pesticide. Botany is closely attributed to Bioassay in his research. Murray B. Isman has included themes like Toxicity, Acute toxicity and Cutworm in his Essential oil study.

The Biotechnology study combines topics in areas such as Pest control, Agriculture, Integrated pest management and Commercialization. Murray B. Isman works mostly in the field of Azadirachtin, limiting it down to topics relating to Toxicology and, in certain cases, Spodoptera litura, Aphid, PEST analysis, Myzus persicae and Pesticide formulation. His Pesticide research integrates issues from Developing country, Food processing and Environmental engineering.

His most cited work include:

• BOTANICAL INSECTICIDES, DETERRENTS, AND REPELLENTS IN MODERN AGRICULTURE AND AN INCREASINGLY REGULATED WORLD (2271 citations)
• PLANT ESSENTIAL OILS FOR PEST AND DISEASE MANAGEMENT (1671 citations)
• Acute, sublethal, antifeedant, and synergistic effects of monoterpenoid essential oil compounds on the tobacco cutworm, Spodoptera litura (Lep., Noctuidae). (382 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Botany, Noctuidae, Horticulture, Trichoplusia and Cabbage looper. His study in Botany focuses on Larva, Peridroma saucia, Meliaceae, Essential oil and Spodoptera litura. His studies deal with areas such as Terpene, Acute toxicity and Terpenoid as well as Essential oil.

His Noctuidae research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Toxicology and Instar. His PEST analysis research incorporates themes from Biological pest control and Agronomy. Murray B. Isman has researched Pesticide in several fields, including Agriculture, Food processing and Agroforestry.

He most often published in these fields:

• Botany (57.01%)
• Noctuidae (21.50%)
• Horticulture (19.16%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2020)?

• Cabbage looper (17.29%)
• Botany (57.01%)
• Essential oil (15.42%)

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

Murray B. Isman mainly focuses on Cabbage looper, Botany, Essential oil, Trichoplusia and Food science. His study in Botany is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Terpene and Horticulture. His Essential oil research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Biotechnology, Piperonyl butoxide and Terpenoid.

His research investigates the link between Trichoplusia and topics such as Toxicity that cross with problems in Chromatography. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Bioassay, Noctuidae and Maize weevil. The concepts of his Toxicology study are interwoven with issues in Cimex lectularius and Pesticide.

Between 2010 and 2020, his most popular works were:

• Commercial opportunities for pesticides based on plant essential oils in agriculture, industry and consumer products (261 citations)
• Botanical insecticide research: many publications, limited useful data. (231 citations)
• Botanical insecticides inspired by plant-herbivore chemical interactions (155 citations)

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

• Botany
• Ecology
• Insect

Murray B. Isman mostly deals with Cabbage looper, Botany, Essential oil, Biotechnology and Food science. His Cabbage looper study combines Trichoplusia and Horticulture studies. His Botany research focuses on Cymbopogon citratus, Thymus vulgaris and Cinnamomum zeylanicum.

His Essential oil research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Lauraceae, Lamiaceae, Syzygium and Myrtaceae. In his study, Plant species and Azadirachta is strongly linked to Integrated pest management, which falls under the umbrella field of Biotechnology. His studies in Food science integrate themes in fields like Bioassay, Noctuidae and Terpenoid.
