Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Gene
  • Genetics

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Zoology, Haemoproteus, Avian malaria and Acrocephalus. His research links Evolutionary biology with Ecology. His Haemoproteus research includes themes of Cytochrome b, Haemosporida, Phylogenetic tree, Host and Polymerase chain reaction.

The concepts of his Avian malaria study are interwoven with issues in Sparrow and Plasmodium relictum. In his articles, Staffan Bensch combines various disciplines, including Acrocephalus and Great reed warbler. Many of his research projects under Plasmodium are closely connected to Transmission with Transmission, tying the diverse disciplines of science together.

His most cited work include:

  • Links between worlds: unraveling migratory connectivity (884 citations)
  • Good genes, oxidative stress and condition-dependent sexual signals (741 citations)
  • Correlation between male song repertoire, extra-pair paternity and offspring survival in the great reed warbler (604 citations)

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

Staffan Bensch mostly deals with Ecology, Zoology, Genetics, Acrocephalus and Haemoproteus. Ecology is often connected to Biological dispersal in his work. His Zoology study incorporates themes from Host, Avian malaria, Plasmodium and Phylogenetics.

Staffan Bensch interconnects Evolutionary biology and Amplified fragment length polymorphism in the investigation of issues within Genetics. His study in the fields of Sylviidae under the domain of Acrocephalus overlaps with other disciplines such as Great reed warbler. His Haemoproteus research incorporates elements of Cytochrome b, Lineage, Haemosporida, Phylogenetic tree and Leucocytozoon.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (41.90%)
  • Zoology (40.14%)
  • Genetics (21.48%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Zoology (40.14%)
  • Haemoproteus (19.01%)
  • Evolutionary biology (16.55%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Zoology, Haemoproteus, Evolutionary biology, Leucocytozoon and Avian malaria. His Zoology study incorporates themes from Phylloscopus trochilus, Bird migration and Host. His Haemoproteus research is under the purview of Plasmodium.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Adaptive evolution, Nuclear gene, Mitochondrial DNA and Phylogenetic tree. The concepts of his Avian malaria study are interwoven with issues in Ecology and Sympatry. Staffan Bensch regularly ties together related areas like Cospeciation in his Ecology studies.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Urban environment shortens telomere length in nestling great tits, Parus major (60 citations)
  • Embracing Colonizations: A New Paradigm for Species Association Dynamics (57 citations)
  • Genetic rescue in a severely inbred wolf population. (48 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Gene
  • Genetics

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Leucocytozoon, Haemoproteus, Habitat and Plasmodium. In his papers, Staffan Bensch integrates diverse fields, such as Ecology and Urban environment. His work carried out in the field of Haemoproteus brings together such families of science as Medical microbiology, Multiplex polymerase chain reaction, Computational biology and Parasitology.

His study looks at the relationship between Host and fields such as Abiotic component, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems. Passerine is the subject of his research, which falls under Zoology. The Zoology study which covers Lineage that intersects with Clade, Haemosporida, Fauna, Cytochrome b and Evolutionary biology.
