Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study Peter Witzgall is best known for:

Insect
Pheromone
Larva

Botany connects with themes related to Herbivore in his study. His research ties Pheromone trap and Ecology together. His work on PEST analysis expands to the thematically related Pheromone trap. His research combines Semiochemical and PEST analysis. His Semiochemical study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Ecology. His studies link Mating disruption with Lepidoptera genitalia. His work on Mating disruption is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Zoology. His work on Mating expands to the thematically related Zoology. Mating and Pheromone are two areas of study in which Peter Witzgall engages in interdisciplinary research.

His most cited work include:

Sex Pheromones and Their Impact on Pest Management (729 citations)
Codling Moth Management and Chemical Ecology (339 citations)
Yeast, not fruit volatiles mediate Drosophila melanogaster attraction, oviposition and development (313 citations)

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

In his works, Peter Witzgall undertakes multidisciplinary study on Botany and Food science. In his research, Peter Witzgall performs multidisciplinary study on Food science and Botany. His Lepidoptera genitalia study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Codling moth. Peter Witzgall regularly links together related areas like Lepidoptera genitalia in his Codling moth studies. Peter Witzgall integrates Sex pheromone and Mating disruption in his research. In his research, he performs multidisciplinary study on Mating disruption and Pheromone trap. His Pheromone trap study typically links adjacent topics like Sex pheromone. By researching both Pheromone and Olfaction, Peter Witzgall produces research that crosses academic boundaries. Peter Witzgall performs multidisciplinary study in Olfaction and Pheromone in his work.

In recent works Peter Witzgall was focusing on the following fields of study:

His work in Wine addresses subjects such as Food science, which are connected to disciplines such as Aroma. His Aroma study frequently links to other fields, such as Food science. Botany is closely attributed to Prunus in his research. Prunus and Botany are frequently intertwined in his study. His work in Ecology is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Host (biology). His study brings together the fields of Ecology and Host (biology). He connects Insect with Foraging in his research. Peter Witzgall merges Foraging with Herbivore in his study. In his study, Peter Witzgall carries out multidisciplinary Herbivore and Larva research.

Between 2017 and 2022, his most popular works were:

Chemical signaling and insect attraction is a conserved trait in yeasts (55 citations)
Yeast Volatomes Differentially Affect Larval Feeding in an Insect Herbivore (25 citations)
Plant odor and sex pheromone are integral elements of specific mate recognition in an insect herbivore (17 citations)
