Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Ecology
  • Gene

Nicolas Lopez-Villalobos focuses on Animal science, Dry matter, Dairy cattle, Pasture and Grazing. Nicolas Lopez-Villalobos has included themes like Pregnancy, Ice calving and Lactation in his Animal science study. His Dairy cattle research includes elements of Hectare, Crossbreed and Genotype, Gene–environment interaction.

His study focuses on the intersection of Crossbreed and fields such as Breed with connections in the field of Veterinary medicine. His Grazing study is concerned with the field of Agronomy as a whole. His Herd study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Milking and Beef cattle.

His most cited work include:

  • Profitabilities of Some Mating Systems for Dairy Herds in New Zealand (90 citations)
  • The effect of ewe maternal behaviour score on lamb and litter survival (70 citations)
  • Effects of stocking rate, supplementation, genotype and their interactions on grazing dairy systems: a review. (69 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Animal science, Lactation, Herd, Dairy cattle and Pasture. Nicolas Lopez-Villalobos frequently studies issues relating to Ice calving and Animal science. His work in Lactation covers topics such as Heritability which are related to areas like Random effects model.

His Herd study necessitates a more in-depth grasp of Veterinary medicine. Nicolas Lopez-Villalobos combines subjects such as Weaning, Dry matter and Grazing with his study of Pasture. His Grazing research integrates issues from Willow and Domestic sheep reproduction.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Animal science (62.26%)
  • Lactation (19.14%)
  • Herd (19.41%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Animal science (62.26%)
  • Breed (16.44%)
  • Herd (19.41%)

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

Nicolas Lopez-Villalobos mainly investigates Animal science, Breed, Herd, Lactation and Crossbreed. His Animal science research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Grazing, Pasture and Heritability. His Breed research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Jersey cattle, Variance components, Milk yield and Random effects model.

As part of one scientific family, Nicolas Lopez-Villalobos deals mainly with the area of Herd, narrowing it down to issues related to the Ice calving, and often Body weight. Nicolas Lopez-Villalobos works mostly in the field of Lactation, limiting it down to topics relating to Milking and, in certain cases, Silage and Lactose, as a part of the same area of interest. His work deals with themes such as Dairy cattle and Reproduction, which intersect with Crossbreed.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Clinical characteristics and risk factors for mortality of patients with COVID-19 in a large data set from Mexico. (24 citations)
  • Invited review: Milk lactose-Current status and future challenges in dairy cattle. (21 citations)
  • Hot topic: Selecting cattle for low residual feed intake did not affect daily methane production but increased methane yield. (21 citations)

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

  • Internal medicine
  • Ecology
  • Gene

Nicolas Lopez-Villalobos mainly focuses on Animal science, Breed, Lactation, Herd and Live weight. His study connects Pasture and Animal science. His Breed research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Livestock, Beef cattle and Milk yield.

His work in Lactation tackles topics such as Heritability which are related to areas like Dairy cattle and Food science. Within one scientific family, Nicolas Lopez-Villalobos focuses on topics pertaining to Ice calving under Herd, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Genetic variability. His work in Live weight addresses subjects such as Dairy heifer, which are connected to disciplines such as Milk production and Random regression.
