Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Essential oil

His main research concerns Botany, Biotechnology, Essential oil, Culex quinquefasciatus and Food science. His Biotechnology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Plant species and Biopesticide. The concepts of his Essential oil study are interwoven with issues in Traditional medicine and Cutworm.

His studies deal with areas such as Mentha pulegium and Spodoptera littoralis as well as Traditional medicine. His Food science research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Minimum inhibitory concentration and Fusarium. His work deals with themes such as Larva and Horticulture, which intersect with Satureja hortensis.

His most cited work include:

  • Essential Oils as Ecofriendly Biopesticides? Challenges and Constraints (365 citations)
  • Essential oils for the development of eco-friendly mosquito larvicides: A review (325 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Essential oil, Botany, Spodoptera littoralis, Culex quinquefasciatus and Traditional medicine. His Essential oil research integrates issues from Acute toxicity, Pesticide, Toxicology and Horticulture. Many of his studies on Botany involve topics that are commonly interrelated, such as Biopesticide.

His study in Spodoptera littoralis is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Carvacrol, Thymol, Eisenia fetida and Apiaceae. His study looks at the relationship between Culex quinquefasciatus and fields such as Housefly, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. His study in the field of Medicinal plants and Lamiaceae is also linked to topics like St louis encephalitis.

He most often published in these fields:

His primary areas of investigation include Essential oil, Traditional medicine, Spodoptera littoralis, Horticulture and Culex quinquefasciatus. His study in the fields of Carlina acaulis under the domain of Essential oil overlaps with other disciplines such as Environmental pollution. His Traditional medicine study incorporates themes from Mosquito larvicide, Ylang-ylang, Cananga odorata and Toxicity.

His Spodoptera littoralis study contributes to a more complete understanding of Botany. His Horticulture research incorporates themes from Sabinene and Camphene. His Culex quinquefasciatus research includes elements of Perillaldehyde, Bark and DEET.

Between 2019 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Outstanding insecticidal activity and sublethal effects of Carlina acaulis root essential oil on the housefly, Musca domestica, with insights on its toxicity on human cells (21 citations)
  • Insecticidal and mosquito repellent efficacy of the essential oils from stem bark and wood of Hazomalania voyronii. (9 citations)
  • Phenolic monoterpene-rich essential oils from Apiaceae and Lamiaceae species: insecticidal activity and safety evaluation on non-target earthworms (7 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Essential oil

Roman Pavela mostly deals with Spodoptera littoralis, Traditional medicine, Essential oil, Culex quinquefasciatus and Larva. His research integrates issues of Lamiaceae and Eisenia fetida in his study of Spodoptera littoralis. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Traditional medicine, narrowing it down to issues related to the Housefly, and often Biopesticide, Flora, Medicinal plants, Carlina acaulis and Acute toxicity.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Pesticide, Toxicology, Terpene and Integrated pest management in addition to Essential oil. His Culex quinquefasciatus study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Perillaldehyde, Bark and DEET. He combines subjects such as Carvacrol, Thymol, Monoterpene, Satureja and Apiaceae with his study of Horticulture.
