Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Ecology

Samuel Rezende Paiva spends much of his time researching Breed, Genetics, Coat, Genetic structure and Heat tolerance. His studies in Breed integrate themes in fields like Inbreeding and Animal breeding. His work in Domestication and Genetic distance are all subfields of Genetics research.

The concepts of his Domestication study are interwoven with issues in Evolutionary biology, Livestock, Phylogeography and Introduced species. His Livestock research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Effective population size and Population genetics. His study focuses on the intersection of Genetic structure and fields such as Genetic variability with connections in the field of Animal science, Herd and Diagnostic marker.

His most cited work include:

  • Genome-wide analysis of the world's sheep breeds reveals high levels of historic mixture and strong recent selection. (477 citations)
  • Heat tolerance in Brazilian sheep: physiological and blood parameters. (146 citations)
  • A new polymorphism in the Growth and Differentiation Factor 9 (GDF9) gene is associated with increased ovulation rate and prolificacy in homozygous sheep (100 citations)

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

Samuel Rezende Paiva mostly deals with Breed, Genetics, Genetic diversity, Animal science and Ecology. His research in Breed intersects with topics in Herd, Population structure, Inbreeding and Crossbreed. His Genetics study typically links adjacent topics like Evolutionary biology.

While the research belongs to areas of Evolutionary biology, Samuel Rezende Paiva spends his time largely on the problem of Domestication, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Livestock. Samuel Rezende Paiva combines subjects such as Zoology, Genetic variability, Microsatellite and Genetic variation with his study of Genetic diversity. His Litter, Texel and Weaning study, which is part of a larger body of work in Animal science, is frequently linked to Trait and Weight gain, bridging the gap between disciplines.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Breed (35.34%)
  • Genetics (30.08%)
  • Genetic diversity (20.30%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Breed (35.34%)
  • Genetic diversity (20.30%)
  • Evolutionary biology (12.03%)

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

Samuel Rezende Paiva focuses on Breed, Genetic diversity, Evolutionary biology, Single-nucleotide polymorphism and Genetic structure. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Cephalic index, Flock, Rump, Principal component analysis and White. His research integrates issues of Zoology, Ovis, Phylogenetic tree, Genotype and Population structure in his study of Genetic diversity.

Samuel Rezende Paiva has included themes like Old World, Mitochondrial DNA, Domestication, Crossbreed and Runs of Homozygosity in his Evolutionary biology study. His work on Snp markers as part of general Single-nucleotide polymorphism research is frequently linked to Georeference, bridging the gap between disciplines. His study in Genetic structure is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Arid, SNP and Animal science.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Mobilizing crop biodiversity. (6 citations)
  • Dynamics of genomic architecture during composite breed development in cattle (3 citations)
  • How to better conserve with genetic data: origin and population structure of Brazilian locally adapted hair sheep (Ovis aries) breeds (3 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Ecology

Samuel Rezende Paiva mainly focuses on Breed, Evolutionary biology, Population structure, Genotype and Crossbreed. His Breed study frequently draws connections between related disciplines such as Runs of Homozygosity. His Evolutionary biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Purebred, Inbreeding depression, Genetic drift, Genetic variation and Genetic architecture.

His Population structure research includes elements of Ecology and Genetic diversity. His study in Genotype is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Zoology, Endangered species, Ovis and Phylogenetic tree. Samuel Rezende Paiva has researched Crossbreed in several fields, including Subspecies, Genotyping, Inbreeding and Beef cattle.
