Sherwin Carlquist

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Botany
• Ecology
• Genus

Sherwin Carlquist spends much of his time researching Botany, Ecology, Anatomy, Xylem and Tracheid. With his scientific publications, his incorporates both Botany and Vessel origin. In the field of Ecology, his study on Biota, Flora and Plant geography overlaps with subjects such as Habit.

His Anatomy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Piperales, Perforation, Chloranthaceae and Axial parenchyma. His Xylem research includes themes of Boryaceae, Asteliaceae, Phloem and Cyclanthaceae. His research integrates issues of Eudicots, Basal angiosperms, Vessel element and Liana in his study of Tracheid.

His most cited work include:

• Comparative Wood Anatomy (586 citations)
• Ecological strategies of xylem evolution (535 citations)
• ECOLOGICAL FACTORS IN WOOD EVOLUTION: A FLORISTIC APPROACH (230 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Botany, Anatomy, Tracheid, Xylem and Ecology. His Botany study frequently draws connections to adjacent fields such as Perforation. Sherwin Carlquist combines subjects such as Rhizome and Neoteny with his study of Perforation.

His study in the fields of Ultrastructure under the domain of Anatomy overlaps with other disciplines such as Lateral wall. His Tracheid research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Genus, Chloranthaceae, Vessel element and Fern. Many of his research projects under Ecology are closely connected to Habit with Habit, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

He most often published in these fields:

• Botany (68.01%)
• Anatomy (46.46%)
• Tracheid (28.62%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2020)?

• Botany (68.01%)
• Xylem (23.23%)
• Tracheid (28.62%)

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

Botany, Xylem, Tracheid, Anatomy and Perforation are his primary areas of study. His research on Botany frequently connects to adjacent areas such as Neoteny. His Xylem research includes elements of Orchidaceae, Boryaceae, Reticulate and Asteliaceae.

His Tracheid study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Autapomorphy, Equisetum and Vessel element. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Caryophyllales, Synapomorphy, Parenchyma and Vascular bundle. His study in Perforation is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Staphyleaceae, Cleomaceae, Cabombaceae, Mineralogy and Encephalartos.

Between 2005 and 2020, his most popular works were:

• Successive cambia revisited: ontogeny, histology, diversity, and functional significance (87 citations)
• Xylem heterochrony: an unappreciated key to angiosperm origin and diversifications. (67 citations)
• Monocot Xylem Revisited: New Information, New Paradigms (44 citations)

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

• Botany
• Ecology
• Genus

His main research concerns Xylem, Tracheid, Botany, Anatomy and Parenchyma. His Xylem research incorporates elements of Reticulate, Epidendroideae, Vanilloideae, Cypripedioideae and Orchidoideae. His work deals with themes such as Anatomical terminology and Vessel element, which intersect with Tracheid.

His study involves Phloem, Vascular cambium, Sympodial, Basal angiosperms and Cambium, a branch of Botany. His studies in Sympodial integrate themes in fields like Clade, Perforation plate, Eudicots, Ranunculales and Liana. The concepts of his Anatomy study are interwoven with issues in Caryophyllales, Statistical model and Vascular bundle.
