Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

His main research concerns Transgene, Tilapia, Reporter gene, Gene expression and Genetics. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Fish farming and Aquaculture. Tilapia is closely attributed to Oreochromis in his research.

His Reporter gene study frequently involves adjacent topics like Molecular biology. Norman Maclean works in the field of Gene expression, namely Regulatory sequence. In the subject of general Genetics, his work in Gene, Mitochondrial DNA, Microsatellite and Genotype is often linked to Genetic recombination, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

His most cited work include:

  • Genetic structure of an aphid studied using microsatellites: cyclic parthenogenesis, differentiated lineages and host specialization (222 citations)
  • Divergent selection during speciation of Lake Malawi cichlid fishes inferred from parallel radiations in nuptial coloration. (206 citations)
  • Expression of a novel piscine growth hormone gene results in growth enhancement in transgenic tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). (137 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Genetics, Molecular biology, Transgene, Gene and Tilapia. As a part of the same scientific family, Norman Maclean mostly works in the field of Genetics, focusing on Evolutionary biology and, on occasion, Phylogenetic tree. His Molecular biology study incorporates themes from Gene expression, Regulatory sequence, Xenopus, Ribosomal RNA and Zebrafish.

His study in Gene is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Rainbow trout, Carp and Cell biology. His research integrates issues of Fish farming, Embryo and Oreochromis in his study of Tilapia. His Oreochromis study combines topics in areas such as Endocrinology and Reporter gene.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (25.90%)
  • Molecular biology (27.34%)
  • Transgene (20.86%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2015)?

  • Zoology (17.27%)
  • Ecology (7.91%)
  • mtDNA control region (4.32%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Zoology, Ecology, mtDNA control region, Wildlife and Evolutionary biology. His studies deal with areas such as Danaus, Range, Sympatric speciation and Phylogenetic tree as well as Evolutionary biology. In his study, Gene is strongly linked to Crustacean, which falls under the umbrella field of Phylogenetic tree.

The Gene study combines topics in areas such as Molecular biology and Ocean pout. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Danaus chrysippus, Botany is strongly linked to Genetics. His studies in RNA integrate themes in fields like Endocrinology, Tilapia and Oreochromis.

Between 2004 and 2015, his most popular works were:

  • Phylogeography, genetic structure, and diversity in the dhole (Cuon alpinus). (56 citations)
  • Analysis of museum specimens suggests extreme genetic drift in the adonis blue butterfly (Polyommatus bellargus) (51 citations)
  • The hypervariable domain of the mitochondrial control region in Atlantic spiny lobsters and its potential as a marker for investigating phylogeographic structuring. (50 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genetics

Norman Maclean mostly deals with Evolutionary biology, Genetic diversity, mtDNA control region, Ecology and Endocrinology. His work deals with themes such as Genetics, Allopatric speciation, Phylogenetic tree, DNA microarray and Fishery, which intersect with Evolutionary biology. His work carried out in the field of Genetic diversity brings together such families of science as Phylogeography and Conservation genetics.

His Endocrinology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Messenger RNA, Transgene and Insulin-like growth factor. Norman Maclean interconnects RNA, Tilapia, Gene expression and Oreochromis in the investigation of issues within Messenger RNA. His Transgene study is concerned with the larger field of Gene.
