Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Gene

Her main research concerns Evolutionary biology, Phylogenetics, Botany, Genetics and Phylogenetic tree. The concepts of her Evolutionary biology study are interwoven with issues in Supertree, Mesangiospermae, Genetic diversity and Plant evolution. Many of her research projects under Phylogenetics are closely connected to Diversification with Diversification, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

Her Botany research integrates issues from Caryophyllales and Monophyly. Her work in Genetics addresses subjects such as Tragopogon, which are connected to disciplines such as Tragopogon mirus, Meiosis and Genetic variation. Her work is dedicated to discovering how Phylogenetic tree, Subfamily are connected with Apiales and other disciplines.

Her most cited work include:

  • An update of the Angiosperm Phylogeny Group classification for the orders and families of flowering plants: APG II (5112 citations)
  • Ancestral polyploidy in seed plants and angiosperms (1360 citations)
  • Angiosperm phylogeny inferred from 18S rDNA, rbcL, and atpB sequences (1130 citations)

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

Pamela S. Soltis mostly deals with Evolutionary biology, Botany, Phylogenetics, Genetics and Phylogenetic tree. In her study, Genetic variability and Population genetics is inextricably linked to Genetic variation, which falls within the broad field of Evolutionary biology. Her Botany study combines topics in areas such as Chloroplast DNA and Monophyly.

She has researched Phylogenetics in several fields, including Ecology and Plastid. Pamela S. Soltis focuses mostly in the field of Genetics, narrowing it down to matters related to Tragopogon and, in some cases, Tragopogon mirus and Tragopogon miscellus. Her study on Molecular phylogenetics is often connected to Supermatrix as part of broader study in Phylogenetic tree.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Evolutionary biology (47.94%)
  • Botany (31.01%)
  • Phylogenetics (33.23%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Evolutionary biology (47.94%)
  • Phylogenetics (33.23%)
  • Phylogenetic tree (30.22%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Evolutionary biology, Phylogenetics, Phylogenetic tree, Ecology and Biodiversity. The Evolutionary biology study combines topics in areas such as Clade, Polyploid, Plant evolution, Species richness and Gene. The Polyploid portion of her research involves studies in Ploidy and Genetics.

She has included themes like Gene duplication, Genome and Plastid in her Phylogenetics study. Her Phylogenetic tree research includes elements of Tree and Taxon. Pamela S. Soltis usually deals with Ecology and limits it to topics linked to Phylogenetic diversity and Flora and Species diversity.

Between 2017 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Earth BioGenome Project: Sequencing life for the future of life. (291 citations)
  • TRY plant trait database : Enhanced coverage and open access (285 citations)
  • Origin of angiosperms and the puzzle of the Jurassic gap (187 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Gene

Pamela S. Soltis spends much of her time researching Phylogenetics, Evolutionary biology, Genome, Clade and Phylogenetic tree. The study incorporates disciplines such as Ecology, Saturation and Phenotypic trait in addition to Phylogenetics. Her Evolutionary biology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sesquiterpene, Ceratopteris richardii and Mesangiospermae.

Her Genome study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Computational biology, DNA sequencing and Coalescent theory. While the research belongs to areas of Clade, Pamela S. Soltis spends her time largely on the problem of Plastid, intersecting her research to questions surrounding Population genetics, Crown, Flowering plant and Chloroplast DNA. Her work on Phylogenetic diversity as part of her general Phylogenetic tree study is frequently connected to Iridoid, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.
