2009 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Genus

Stephen G. Weller mainly investigates Ecology, Dioecy, Inbreeding depression, Schiedea and Selfing. His work is connected to Invasive species, Introduced species, Pollination, Habitat and Species diversity, as a part of Ecology. His research investigates the connection between Invasive species and topics such as Genetic diversity that intersect with problems in Adaptation, EICA hypothesis, Population biology and Population genetics.

His Inbreeding depression research focuses on Outcrossing and how it connects with Inbreeding and Outbreeding depression. The subject of his Schiedea research is within the realm of Botany. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Selfing, narrowing it down to issues related to the Gynodioecy, and often Zoology and Germination.

His most cited work include:

  • The Population Biology of Invasive Species (2950 citations)
  • The evolution of wind pollination in angiosperms (277 citations)
  • Gender and Sexual Dimorphism in Flowering Plants: A review of Terminology, Biogeographic Patterns, Ecological Correlates, and Phylogenetic Approaches (162 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Botany, Ecology, Schiedea, Inbreeding depression and Zoology. His Botany study which covers Fecundity that intersects with Lithospermum caroliniense and Sand dune stabilization. His study in Oxalis alpina, Invasive species, Endangered species, Endemism and Introduced species falls within the category of Ecology.

His work on Native plant as part of general Introduced species study is frequently linked to Alien, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science. His Schiedea study also includes

  • Alsinidendron, which have a strong connection to Biogeography,
  • Caryophyllaceae together with Genus,
  • Evolutionary biology that connect with fields like Genetic diversity. His work deals with themes such as Mating system, Outcrossing, Selfing and Outbreeding depression, which intersect with Inbreeding depression.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (47.75%)
  • Ecology (44.14%)
  • Schiedea (36.04%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2008-2020)?

  • Ecology (44.14%)
  • Botany (47.75%)
  • Schiedea (36.04%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Ecology, Botany, Schiedea, Oxalis alpina and Inbreeding depression. His biological study deals with issues like Evolutionary biology, which deal with fields such as Genetic diversity. The concepts of his Botany study are interwoven with issues in Habitat fragmentation, Abundance and Environmental change.

Stephen G. Weller interconnects Zoology, Anemophily, Schiedea kaalae, Pollinator and Caryophyllaceae in the investigation of issues within Schiedea. His Inbreeding depression research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Outcrossing, Outbreeding depression and Mating system. The various areas that Stephen G. Weller examines in his Invasive species study include Understory and Introduced species.

Between 2008 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Global angiosperm family richness revisited: linking ecology and evolution to climate (76 citations)
  • The different forms of flowers – what have we learned since Darwin? (35 citations)
  • Estimating the species tree for Hawaiian Schiedea (Caryophyllaceae) from multiple loci in the presence of reticulate evolution. (33 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Genus
  • Botany

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Botany, Schiedea, Heterostyly and Zoology. His research on Ecology often connects related areas such as Evolutionary biology. His Botany study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Quantitative genetics and Sexual dimorphism.

Stephen G. Weller has included themes like Genetic correlation and Genetic variation in his Schiedea study. His research integrates issues of Alsinidendron, Intraspecific breeding, Population size, Heritability and Gynodioecy in his study of Zoology. His Pollen research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Adaptation, Adaptive value and Genetic divergence.
