What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
Richard Karban spends much of his time researching Ecology, Herbivore, Botany, Resistance and Plant tolerance to herbivory.
His study in Host, Adaptation, Kin recognition, Phenotypic plasticity and Evolutionary ecology falls within the category of Ecology.
Richard Karban is studying Types of tobacco, which is a component of Herbivore.
He has included themes like Jasmonic acid and Solanaceae in his Botany study.
His Plant tolerance to herbivory study combines topics in areas such as Plant growth, Agricultural crops and Habitat.
Richard Karban combines subjects such as Entomology, Agriculture and Inducible plant defenses against herbivory with his study of Ecology.
His most cited work include:
- Induced responses to herbivory (2189 citations)
- Induced Plant Responses to Herbivory (685 citations)
- Explaining evolution of plant communication by airborne signals. (399 citations)
What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?
Richard Karban mostly deals with Ecology, Herbivore, Botany, Resistance and Host.
In his research on the topic of Ecology, Nymph and Fecundity is strongly related with Periodical cicadas.
Richard Karban is interested in Plant tolerance to herbivory, which is a branch of Herbivore.
His Botany study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Horticulture.
His Host study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Thrips, Thripidae and Larva.
His work carried out in the field of Acariformes brings together such families of science as Spider and Spider mite.
He most often published in these fields:
- Ecology (59.90%)
- Herbivore (55.21%)
- Botany (33.85%)
What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

- Ecology (59.90%)
- Resistance (17.19%)
In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
His primary scientific interests are in Herbivore, Ecology, Resistance, Predation and Agronomy.
His Herbivore study is associated with Botany.
In his research, he performs multidisciplinary study on Ecology and Context.
His research integrates issues of Plant tissue, Evolutionary ecology, Agriculture, Trophic level and Priming in his study of Resistance.
His Predation research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Abundance, Substrate, Caterpillar and Mucilage.
His studies deal with areas such as Artemisia, Harvester ant and Beetle larvae, Larva as well as Agronomy.
Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- The ecology and evolution of induced responses to herbivory and how plants perceive risk (16 citations)
- As temperature increases, predator attack rate is more important to survival than a smaller window of prey vulnerability (10 citations)
- Wet years have more caterpillars: interacting roles of plant litter and predation by ants. (10 citations)
In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:
Richard Karban mostly deals with Ecology, Herbivore, Predation, Resistance and Abundance.
His study in Agronomy extends to Ecology with its themes.
His Herbivore study frequently involves adjacent topics like Trophic level.
His Predation research integrates issues from Dragonfly, Damselfly, Odonata, Structural complexity and Nymph.
His Resistance study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Plant tissue, Specific-information, Evolutionary ecology and Priming.
His Abundance research focuses on Caterpillar and how it relates to Climate change.
