Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Genetics
  • Gene
  • Genome

Genetics, Botany, Stem rust, Gene and Locus are his primary areas of study. His Genetics study is mostly concerned with Chromosome and Genetic marker. His research investigates the connection with Chromosome and areas like Chromosomal translocation which intersect with concerns in Common wheat.

His studies in Stem rust integrate themes in fields like Plant disease resistance, Gene mapping and Quantitative trait locus, Marker-assisted selection. His study in the field of Ug99 also crosses realms of Gene nomenclature. His work is dedicated to discovering how Poaceae, Cultivar are connected with Virulence and other disciplines.

His most cited work include:

  • Characterization of wheat-alien translocations conferring resistance to diseases and pests: current status (701 citations)
  • The Gene Sr33, an Ortholog of Barley Mla Genes, Encodes Resistance to Wheat Stem Rust Race Ug99 (229 citations)
  • Powdery mildew resistance and Lr34/Yr18 genes for durable resistance to leaf and stripe rust cosegregate at a locus on the short arm of chromosome 7D of wheat (204 citations)

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

His primary areas of study are Genetics, Gene, Botany, Plant disease resistance and Stem rust. His Genetics study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Powdery mildew. Robert McIntosh studied Gene and Resistance that intersect with Agriculture.

His Botany research integrates issues from Genetic linkage and Virulence. His Plant disease resistance research includes themes of Germplasm and Microbiology. The concepts of his Stem rust study are interwoven with issues in Aegilops ventricosa, Marker-assisted selection, Puccinia and Backcrossing.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (47.31%)
  • Gene (46.24%)
  • Botany (39.78%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Gene (46.24%)
  • Genetics (47.31%)
  • Plant disease resistance (36.56%)

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

Robert McIntosh mainly focuses on Gene, Genetics, Plant disease resistance, Chromosome and Allele. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Rust and Cultivar. His Genetics research incorporates elements of Gene pool and Botany.

His Plant disease resistance study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Mutant, Doubled haploidy, Locus and Stem rust. His Chromosome study which covers Gene cluster that intersects with Nicotiana benthamiana, R gene and Blumeria graminis. His Allele research focuses on Wheat leaf rust and how it connects with Resistance, Necrosis, Genetic marker and Hybrid.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The wheat Sr50 gene reveals rich diversity at a cereal disease resistance locus. (93 citations)
  • BED-domain-containing immune receptors confer diverse resistance spectra to yellow rust. (71 citations)
  • Complementary resistance genes in wheat selection 'Avocet R' confer resistance to stripe rust. (29 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Genome

Robert McIntosh mainly investigates Gene, Genetics, Locus, Plant disease resistance and Virulence. Robert McIntosh works in the field of Gene, focusing on Genetic analysis in particular. His Locus research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Evolutionary biology, Stripe rust and Plant breeding.

His work carried out in the field of Plant disease resistance brings together such families of science as Chromosomal translocation, Genetic linkage, Gene mapping, Avocet and Doubled haploidy. His study in Virulence is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Pathogen, Rust, Chromosome, Gene cluster and Haplotype. His Haplotype study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Complementation and Ug99, Stem rust.
