Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

Takuji Sasaki mostly deals with Genetics, Quantitative trait locus, Gene, Genome and Gene mapping. His works in Restriction fragment length polymorphism, Oryza sativa, Expressed sequence tag, Genetic marker and Chromosome are all subjects of inquiry into Genetics. His study looks at the relationship between Oryza sativa and topics such as Botany, which overlap with Domestication.

His Quantitative trait locus research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Backcrossing, Genetic linkage, Allele, Japonica and Mendelian inheritance. His study ties his expertise on Molecular biology together with the subject of Gene. His research in the fields of Genome project, Genomics and Whole genome sequencing overlaps with other disciplines such as Database.

His most cited work include:

  • The map-based sequence of the rice genome (2891 citations)
  • Hd1, a Major Photoperiod Sensitivity Quantitative Trait Locus in Rice, Is Closely Related to the Arabidopsis Flowering Time Gene CONSTANS (1169 citations)
  • Hd3a, a rice ortholog of the Arabidopsis FT gene, promotes transition to flowering downstream of Hd1 under short-day conditions. (828 citations)

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

Takuji Sasaki mainly focuses on Genetics, Gene, Genome, Biochemistry and Molecular biology. His work on Genetics deals in particular with Restriction fragment length polymorphism, Gene mapping, Chromosome, Quantitative trait locus and Genetic marker. His Restriction fragment length polymorphism research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of RAPD, Genetic linkage, Yeast artificial chromosome and Contig.

Takuji Sasaki has included themes like Epistasis, Backcrossing, Allele, Japonica and Inbred strain in his Quantitative trait locus study. He has researched Genome in several fields, including Oryza sativa and DNA sequencing. His Molecular biology research includes elements of Southern blot, DNA, Protein subunit, Mutant and Open reading frame.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (51.49%)
  • Gene (35.31%)
  • Genome (30.69%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2020)?

  • Genome (30.69%)
  • Genetics (51.49%)
  • Genomics (11.88%)

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

Takuji Sasaki focuses on Genome, Genetics, Genomics, Gene and Whole genome sequencing. The Genome study combines topics in areas such as Biotechnology, Oryza sativa and DNA sequencing. His study on Genetics is mostly dedicated to connecting different topics, such as Japonica.

His work on Functional genomics as part of general Genomics study is frequently linked to Database, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Gene study frequently links to other fields, such as Poales. His study focuses on the intersection of Whole genome sequencing and fields such as Reference genome with connections in the field of Evolutionary biology.

Between 2006 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Rice Annotation Project Database (RAP-DB): an integrative and interactive database for rice genomics. (361 citations)
  • The Rice Annotation Project Database (RAP-DB): 2008 update (291 citations)
  • Curated genome annotation of Oryza sativa ssp. japonica and comparative genome analysis with Arabidopsis thaliana (230 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

His primary areas of investigation include Genome, Genetics, Genomics, Gene and Whole genome sequencing. Takuji Sasaki works in the field of Genome, namely Genome project. His study in Arabidopsis, Arabidopsis thaliana and Regulation of gene expression is carried out as part of his studies in Genetics.

His Genomics research incorporates elements of Computational biology and Musa acuminata. His study of Oryza sativa is a part of Gene. His studies examine the connections between Whole genome sequencing and genetics, as well as such issues in Synteny, with regards to Raphanus, Gene expression, Transcriptome, Musa balbisiana and Comparative genomics.
