2017 - 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:

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Ecology

His scientific interests lie mostly in Genetics, Arabidopsis, Botany, Arabidopsis thaliana and Ecology. His study in Quantitative trait locus, Gene, Genetic variation, Genome and Genomics are all subfields of Genetics. His study explores the link between Arabidopsis and topics such as Glucosinolate that cross with problems in Biochemistry.

His work deals with themes such as Plant defense against herbivory and Crop, which intersect with Botany. His research integrates issues of Ecotype, Genetic correlation and Polygonum arenastrum in his study of Arabidopsis thaliana. His work on Adaptation and Herbivore as part of general Ecology research is often related to Inequality and Sampling, thus linking different fields of science.

His most cited work include:

  • Regression analysis of natural selection statistical inference and biological interpretation (818 citations)
  • The draft genome of the transgenic tropical fruit tree papaya (Carica papaya Linnaeus) (816 citations)
  • Comparative Evolutionary Analysis of Chalcone Synthase and Alcohol Dehydrogenase Loci in Arabidopsis, Arabis, and Related Genera (Brassicaceae) (737 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Genetics, Ecology, Arabidopsis, Evolutionary biology and Genetic variation. Gene, Quantitative trait locus, Genome, Boechera and Arabidopsis lyrata are among the areas of Genetics where the researcher is concentrating his efforts. His study in the field of Local adaptation, Phenotypic plasticity and Life history also crosses realms of Context.

His Arabidopsis research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Arabidopsis thaliana and Insect, Botany. His Evolutionary biology study deals with Genomics intersecting with Ecology. His Genetic variation research focuses on subjects like Population genetics, which are linked to Molecular evolution.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Genetics (44.29%)
  • Ecology (24.76%)
  • Arabidopsis (25.71%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Boechera stricta (15.71%)
  • Ecology (24.76%)
  • Genetics (44.29%)

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

His main research concerns Boechera stricta, Ecology, Genetics, Evolutionary biology and Adaptation. His Boechera stricta study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Gene flow, Glucosinolate, Botany and Genetic architecture. His Botany study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Microbiome, Soil microbiology and Genetic diversity.

His Local adaptation and Phenotypic plasticity study, which is part of a larger body of work in Ecology, is frequently linked to Environmental gradient and Context, bridging the gap between disciplines. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Balancing selection, Pleiotropy and Ecological genetics. Thomas Mitchell-Olds interconnects Arabidopsis thaliana, Cold acclimation and Phenology in the investigation of issues within Arabidopsis.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Host genotype and age shape the leaf and root microbiomes of a wild perennial plant (326 citations)
  • Natural soil microbes alter flowering phenology and the intensity of selection on flowering time in a wild Arabidopsis relative. (157 citations)
  • The evolution of quantitative traits in complex environments. (66 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Genetics
  • Ecology

Thomas Mitchell-Olds mainly investigates Boechera stricta, Ecology, Local adaptation, Adaptation and Botany. To a larger extent, Thomas Mitchell-Olds studies Arabidopsis with the aim of understanding Boechera stricta. Thomas Mitchell-Olds works mostly in the field of Ecology, limiting it down to topics relating to Reproductive success and, in certain cases, Fitness landscape, Genetic Fitness, Ecological genetics, Robustness and Evolutionary biology.

His Local adaptation research incorporates themes from Quantitative genetics, Social ecological model and Mating system. The concepts of his Adaptation study are interwoven with issues in Ecotype, Genetic variation and Genetic diversity. His Botany research includes themes of Brachypodium distachyon, Genetic variability, Brachypodium, Gene–environment interaction and Soil microbiology.
