What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Ecology
- Biodiversity
- Botany
His primary areas of study are Biodiversity, Ecology, Genetic diversity, In situ conservation and Crop wild relative.
The concepts of his Biodiversity study are interwoven with issues in Conservation status, Protected area, Sustainability and Threatened species.
Nigel Maxted combines subjects such as Genetic erosion and Environmental resource management with his study of Sustainability.
His research in Ecology tackles topics such as Agroforestry which are related to areas like Resource.
His Genetic diversity study combines topics in areas such as Agricultural biodiversity, Domestication, Biotechnology and Germplasm.
His Crop wild relative study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Environmental planning, Taxon, Cultivated plant taxonomy, Ecology and Food security.
His most cited work include:
- Defining and identifying crop landraces (264 citations)
- Plant Genetic Conservation: The in situ approach (258 citations)
- Global conservation priorities for crop wild relatives (222 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Agroforestry, Ecology, Genetic diversity, In situ conservation and Crop are his primary areas of study.
His Agroforestry research integrates issues from Biodiversity, Agriculture, Food security, Agricultural science and Sustainability.
His research in Ecology focuses on subjects like Crop wild relative, which are connected to Climate change.
As part of one scientific family, Nigel Maxted deals mainly with the area of Genetic diversity, narrowing it down to issues related to the Germplasm, and often Domestication.
His In situ conservation research includes elements of Environmental resource management and Ex situ conservation.
His Crop research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Biotechnology and Plant breeding.
He most often published in these fields:
- Agroforestry (29.53%)
- Ecology (28.86%)
- Genetic diversity (22.82%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?
- Agroforestry (29.53%)
- Food security (11.07%)
- Crop (22.15%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His scientific interests lie mostly in Agroforestry, Food security, Crop, Crop wild relative and Ex situ conservation.
His Agroforestry research incorporates elements of Agriculture, Biodiversity and In situ conservation.
His work carried out in the field of Food security brings together such families of science as Sustainable agriculture and Sustainability.
The study incorporates disciplines such as Domestication, Vicia faba and Nature Conservation in addition to Crop.
His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Taxon and Ecology.
His Ex situ conservation study contributes to a more complete understanding of Genetic diversity.
