Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Genus

Botany, Cupressaceae, Taxon, RAPD and Chromatography are his primary areas of study. As part of his studies on Botany, Robert P. Adams frequently links adjacent subjects like Hesperocyparis. The Cupressaceae study combines topics in areas such as Sabinene, Terpene, Juniperus oxycedrus and Juniperus scopulorum.

His Taxon study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Systematics, Chemotaxonomy and Genetics. His research in Chromatography intersects with topics in Guar, Polysaccharide, Identification and Carrageenan. His Identification research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Mass spectrum, Elution, Chemical nomenclature, Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry and Essential oil.

His most cited work include:

  • Identification of Essential Oil Components By Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (2333 citations)
  • Identification of Essential Oils by Ion trap Mass Spectroscopy (900 citations)
  • Dynamic knee extension as model for study of isolated exercising muscle in humans. (339 citations)

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

Robert P. Adams spends much of his time researching Botany, Cupressaceae, Taxon, Horticulture and Terpenoid. Botany is closely attributed to Geographic variation in his work. His research integrates issues of Range, RAPD, Cedrol, Juniperus scopulorum and Systematics in his study of Cupressaceae.

His Taxon study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Juniper, Clade and Chemotaxonomy. His Terpenoid study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Terpene. Many of his studies on Essential oil apply to Monoterpene as well.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (71.53%)
  • Cupressaceae (27.01%)
  • Taxon (16.06%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2021)?

  • Botany (71.53%)
  • Horticulture (13.14%)
  • Taxon (16.06%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Botany, Horticulture, Taxon, Taxonomy and DNA sequencing. His studies in Botany integrate themes in fields like Range, Terpene and Geographic variation. The concepts of his Horticulture study are interwoven with issues in Composition, Citronellol, Myrcene, Sabinene and Essential oil.

His Taxon research focuses on Phylogenetic tree and how it connects with Phylogenetics and Evolutionary biology. Robert P. Adams works mostly in the field of Taxonomy, limiting it down to concerns involving Chloroplast DNA and, occasionally, Sequence analysis and Juniperus communis. His study in Cupressaceae is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Taxodium and Introgression.

Between 2010 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Predominant and Substoichiometric Isomers of the Plastid Genome Coexist within Juniperus Plants and Have Shifted Multiple Times during Cupressophyte Evolution (67 citations)
  • Phylogeny of Juniperus using nrDNA and four cpDNA regions. (22 citations)
  • Phenolic Components and Antioxidant Activity of Wood Extracts from 10 Main Spanish Olive Cultivars. (17 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Genus

Robert P. Adams mainly investigates Botany, Taxon, Ecology, Evolutionary biology and Terpene. His Botany study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Range, Decanal and DNA sequencing. Robert P. Adams combines subjects such as Chloroplast DNA, Clade, Phylogenetic tree, Juniperus phoenicea and Sequence analysis with his study of Taxon.

Robert P. Adams interconnects Ordination, Citronellol, Terpenoid, Neutral Detergent Fiber and Animal science in the investigation of issues within Terpene. His study focuses on the intersection of Terpenoid and fields such as Horticulture with connections in the field of Essential oil, Extraction, Steam distillation and Sabinene. The concepts of his Animal science study are interwoven with issues in Negatively associated, Chemical composition, Juniper, Digestion and Nutrient.
