Overview

Terence A. Brown is affiliated with the University of Manchester in the United Kingdom. Their research primarily spans the fields of Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology, as well as Agricultural and Biological Sciences. Within these fields, their work focuses notably on Plant Science, Genetics, and Molecular Biology, with additional interests in Atmospheric Science and Endocrinology.

Their publications reflect a strong emphasis on wheat and barley genetics and pathology, genetic diversity and population structure, and genetic mapping and diversity in plants and animals. Related research topics also include plant and fungal interactions, studies on yeasts and rust fungi, tree-ring climate responses, and aspects of archaeology and ancient environmental studies.

Terence A. Brown has contributed to several recent papers, including:

  • Ancient DNA typing indicates that the "new" glume wheat of early Eurasian agriculture is a cultivated member of the Triticum timopheevii group, 2020, Journal of Archaeological Science
  • Multiregional origins of the domesticated tetraploid wheats, 2020, PLoS ONE
  • Episodes of gene flow and selection during the evolutionary history of domesticated barley, 2021, BMC Genomics
  • Climatic controls on the survival and loss of ancient types of barley on North Atlantic Islands, 2023, Climatic Change
  • Genetic erosion in domesticated barley and a hypothesis of a North African centre of diversity, 2024, Ecology and Evolution

Their frequent coauthors include Peter Civáň, Konstantina Drosou, B. Czajkowska, Hugo R. Oliveira, and Sandra Kennedy. Most of their collaborative work has involved topics related to plant genetics and evolutionary biology.

In terms of publication venues, Terence A. Brown has multiple works featured in the Journal of Archaeological Science, with additional contributions to PLoS ONE, Climatic Change, BMC Genomics, and Ecology and Evolution.
