Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genome

His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Retrotransposon, Centromere, DNA and Kinetochore. Chromatin, Genome, Transposable element, Gene and Heterochromatin are the primary areas of interest in his Genetics study. His Genome research focuses on Genome evolution in particular.

His work in Retrotransposon addresses issues such as Gene mapping, which are connected to fields such as Copy-number variation and Ploidy. His research in Centromere focuses on subjects like Histone H3, which are connected to Satellite DNA and Chromosome movement. His Kinetochore research incorporates elements of Meiosis, Anaphase, Tandem repeat and Mitosis.

His most cited work include:

  • The B73 Maize Genome: Complexity, Diversity, and Dynamics (3021 citations)
  • A standardized kinesin nomenclature. (590 citations)
  • Improved maize reference genome with single-molecule technologies (559 citations)

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

R. Kelly Dawe mainly investigates Genetics, Centromere, Genome, Kinetochore and Cell biology. His works in Chromosome, Chromatin, Meiotic drive, Retrotransposon and Gene are all subjects of inquiry into Genetics. His Retrotransposon research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Sequence analysis, Repeated sequence and Gene mapping.

His Centromere research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Evolutionary biology, Tandem repeat and Histone, DNA, DNA sequencing. When carried out as part of a general Genome research project, his work on Transposable element and Genomics is frequently linked to work in Sequence assembly, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Genetic marker and Copy-number variation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (70.83%)
  • Centromere (53.13%)
  • Genome (34.38%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Genome (34.38%)
  • Centromere (53.13%)
  • Computational biology (12.50%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Genome, Centromere, Computational biology, Heterochromatin and Gene. Genome is a subfield of Genetics that R. Kelly Dawe explores. His work on Ploidy, Null allele and Genotype as part of his general Genetics study is frequently connected to Gametogenesis and Arabidopsis, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.

His Computational biology research focuses on Chromosome 3 and how it connects with Tandem repeat. R. Kelly Dawe has included themes like Meiotic drive, Transposable element and Sequence in his Heterochromatin study. His work carried out in the field of Gene brings together such families of science as Chromosome and Synthetic biology.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genome-scale Sequence Disruption Following Biolistic Transformation in Rice and Maize (28 citations)
  • Gapless assembly of maize chromosomes using long-read technologies (20 citations)
  • Effect of sequence depth and length in long-read assembly of the maize inbred NC358. (10 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Genome

R. Kelly Dawe mostly deals with Genome, Centromere, Computational biology, Genetics and Resource allocation. His biological study focuses on Tandem repeat. His studies deal with areas such as Contig, Chromosome 9, Genomics, Chromosome 3 and Meiotic drive as well as Tandem repeat.

His study in the fields of Transformation, Chromosome and Whole genome sequencing under the domain of Genetics overlaps with other disciplines such as Lambda phage and Chromothripsis. His research in Transformation intersects with topics in Plasmid and DNA. His study on Resource allocation is intertwined with other disciplines of science such as Heterochromatin, Sequence, Line, Sequence assembly and Transposable element.
