Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Organic chemistry
  • Ecology

Botany, Tephritidae, PEST analysis, Sex pheromone and Horticulture are his primary areas of study. Noctuidae and Lepidoptera genitalia are among the areas of Botany where he concentrates his study. Many of his research projects under Lepidoptera genitalia are closely connected to Beet armyworm with Beet armyworm, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

His study looks at the relationship between Tephritidae and topics such as Toxicology, which overlap with Sterile insect technique. The study incorporates disciplines such as Persea borbonia, Ambrosia beetle and Persea in addition to PEST analysis. His study in Sex pheromone is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Chromatography, Pheromone and Predation.

His most cited work include:

  • Diurnal cycle of emission of induced volatile terpenoids by herbivore-injured cotton plant. (337 citations)
  • Isolation and identification of allelochemicals that attract the larval parasitoid,Cotesia marginiventris (Cresson), to the microhabitat of one of its hosts. (267 citations)
  • Volatile Semiochemicals Released from Undamaged Cotton Leaves (A Systemic Response of Living Plants to Caterpillar Damage). (251 citations)

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

Robert R. Heath mainly focuses on Botany, Tephritidae, Sex pheromone, PEST analysis and Horticulture. His study in Lepidoptera genitalia and Noctuidae is done as part of Botany. The Tephritidae study combines topics in areas such as Fruit tree and Toxicology.

His studies deal with areas such as Cylas formicarius, Chromatography, Pheromone and Stereochemistry as well as Sex pheromone. His work carried out in the field of Pheromone brings together such families of science as Toxotrypana curvicauda and Odor. His Horticulture research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Ammonium acetate and Larva.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (62.94%)
  • Tephritidae (35.03%)
  • Sex pheromone (32.99%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2019)?

  • Botany (62.94%)
  • Tephritidae (35.03%)
  • Anastrepha suspensa (14.21%)

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

Robert R. Heath focuses on Botany, Tephritidae, Anastrepha suspensa, Horticulture and Persea. His research investigates the connection between Botany and topics such as Host that intersect with issues in PEST analysis. His work on Anastrepha as part of general Tephritidae study is frequently connected to Borax, therefore bridging the gap between diverse disciplines of science and establishing a new relationship between them.

His Anastrepha suspensa research also works with subjects such as

  • Food science which is related to area like Biochemistry, Diamine and Ammonium,
  • Toxicology which is related to area like Cylas formicarius, Sex pheromone, Wax matrix, Pest control and Integrated pest management. His Horticulture study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Range and Larva. Robert R. Heath has researched Persea in several fields, including Xyleborus glabratus, Ambrosia beetle, Laurel wilt, Lauraceae and Seedling.

Between 2007 and 2019, his most popular works were:

  • Attraction of the Redbay Ambrosia Beetle, Xyleborus glabratus, to Avocado, Lychee, and Essential Oil Lures (53 citations)
  • Attraction and electroantennogram responses of male Mediterranean fruit fly to volatile chemicals from Persea, Litchi and Ficus wood. (34 citations)
  • Comparative Analysis of Terpenoid Emissions from Florida Host Trees of the Redbay Ambrosia Beetle, Xyleborus glabratus (Coleoptera: Curculionidae: Scolytinae) (33 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Organic chemistry
  • Ecology

His primary scientific interests are in Botany, Persea, Tephritidae, Xyleborus glabratus and Laurel wilt. Botany is closely attributed to Horticulture in his work. His Persea research incorporates themes from Fruit tree, Lauraceae, Host and Ficus benjamina.

His Host study combines topics in areas such as Dendrology and Seedling. His studies in Tephritidae integrate themes in fields like Ficus and Electroantennography. He usually deals with Xyleborus glabratus and limits it to topics linked to PEST analysis and Persea borbonia.
