Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Insect

Peter W. Price mainly investigates Ecology, Herbivore, Botany, Gall and Ecology. His Ecology study which covers Zoology that intersects with Coevolution. His research in Herbivore intersects with topics in Trophic level, Food web and Insect.

His Botany research focuses on Intraspecific competition and how it connects with Pollinator, Reproductive success, Bumblebee and Pollen. His Ecology study incorporates themes from Functional ecology and Life history theory. His Sawfly research integrates issues from Willow, Salicaceae and Shoot.

His most cited work include:

  • Interactions Among Three Trophic Levels: Influence of Plants on Interactions Between Insect Herbivores and Natural Enemies (1949 citations)
  • Playing Chutes and Ladders: Heterogeneity and the Relative Roles of Bottom-Up and Top-Down Forces in Natural Communities (1363 citations)
  • Evolutionary biology of parasites (1208 citations)

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

Peter W. Price mostly deals with Ecology, Botany, Sawfly, Herbivore and Gall. His work on Ecology deals in particular with Host, Ecology, Insect ecology, Parasitoid and Species richness. His Host research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Zoology, Homoptera and Fecundity.

His work deals with themes such as Willow, Tenthredinidae and Guild, which intersect with Sawfly. Peter W. Price has included themes like Population density, Agronomy, Habitat, Trophic level and Insect in his Herbivore study. In his work, Competition is strongly intertwined with Interspecific competition, which is a subfield of Salicaceae.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (61.14%)
  • Botany (41.48%)
  • Sawfly (32.75%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2004-2021)?

  • Ecology (61.14%)
  • Insect ecology (7.86%)
  • Entomology (5.68%)

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

Ecology, Insect ecology, Entomology, Herbivore and Gall are his primary areas of study. His study in Sawfly, Species richness, Trophic cascade, Trophic level and Biodiversity is carried out as part of his Ecology studies. In his study, Willow, Diprionidae, Petiole and Aphididae is strongly linked to Tenthredinidae, which falls under the umbrella field of Sawfly.

He interconnects Evolutionary biology, Sociality and Superorganism in the investigation of issues within Entomology. His Herbivore research incorporates elements of Lepidoptera genitalia, Prodoxidae and Evolutionary ecology. His Gall research includes themes of Insect, Host and Hymenoptera.

Between 2004 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Evolutionary Strategies of Parasitic Insects and Mites (157 citations)
  • Insect Ecology: Taxonomic Index (154 citations)
  • Insect Ecology: Species interactions (154 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Insect
  • Botany

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Herbivore, Gall, Zoology and Sawfly. Peter W. Price regularly links together related areas like Ecosystem engineer in his Herbivore studies. His Gall research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Hymenoptera and Tenthredinidae.

As a member of one scientific family, Peter W. Price mostly works in the field of Tenthredinidae, focusing on Petiole and, on occasion, Host. His Zoology study incorporates themes from Lepidoptera genitalia, Insect ecology and Sex ratio. His biological study deals with issues like Vital rates, which deal with fields such as Biological dispersal.
