  • 2005 - Fellow of the American Society of Agronomy (ASA)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Botany

His primary areas of study are Genetics, Quantitative trait locus, RAPD, Phaseolus and Plant disease resistance. His Genetics study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Gene pool. As part of his studies on Quantitative trait locus, Phillip N. Miklas often connects relevant areas like Horticulture.

The various areas that Phillip N. Miklas examines in his RAPD study include Polymerase chain reaction and Major gene. His Phaseolus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Domestication and Cultivar. His Plant disease resistance research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, Agronomy, Marker-assisted selection and Gene mapping.

His most cited work include:

  • A reference genome for common bean and genome-wide analysis of dual domestications (689 citations)
  • Common bean breeding for resistance against biotic and abiotic stresses: From classical to MAS breeding (390 citations)
  • Tagging and mapping of genes and QTL and molecular marker-assisted selection for traits of economic importance in bean and cowpea (226 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Phaseolus, Genetics, Plant disease resistance, Horticulture and Botany. Phillip N. Miklas works mostly in the field of Phaseolus, limiting it down to concerns involving Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and, occasionally, White and Sclerotinia. As a part of the same scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Genetics, focusing on RAPD and, on occasion, Gene pool.

As part of one scientific family, Phillip N. Miklas deals mainly with the area of Plant disease resistance, narrowing it down to issues related to the Uromyces appendiculatus, and often Bean common mosaic virus. In general Horticulture, his work in Cultivar and Pinto bean is often linked to Coat linking many areas of study. His work on Germplasm and Tepary Bean is typically connected to West indies as part of general Botany study, connecting several disciplines of science.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Phaseolus (37.82%)
  • Genetics (37.18%)
  • Plant disease resistance (28.85%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Phaseolus (37.82%)
  • Genetics (37.18%)
  • Horticulture (26.92%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Phaseolus, Genetics, Horticulture, Agronomy and Candidate gene. His study in Quantitative trait locus, Gene and Plant disease resistance falls within the category of Genetics. His Quantitative trait locus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Resistance, Bulked segregant analysis, Genetic linkage, Dormancy and White.

His Plant disease resistance study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Plant breeding, RAPD, Genotype and Backcrossing. His work in the fields of Horticulture, such as Cultivar and Cayenne, intersects with other areas such as Quality characteristics, Red bean and Correlation coefficient. His study in Agronomy is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Canopy and Abiotic stress.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genome-Wide Association Study Identifies Candidate Loci Underlying Agronomic Traits in a Middle American Diversity Panel of Common Bean. (71 citations)
  • Meta-QTL for resistance to white mold in common bean. (25 citations)
  • Single and Multi-trait GWAS Identify Genetic Factors Associated with Production Traits in Common Bean Under Abiotic Stress Environments. (22 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Botany

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Agronomy, Genetics, Quantitative trait locus, Candidate gene and Genome-wide association study. Phillip N. Miklas has included themes like Canopy and Botany in his Agronomy study. His work on Genetics is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Race.

His Quantitative trait locus research incorporates elements of Phaseolus and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. His Phaseolus study results in a more complete grasp of Horticulture. In his research on the topic of Genetic marker, Cultivar is strongly related with Gene pool.
