Ward M. Tingey

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Botany
• Insect
• Ecology

His scientific interests lie mostly in Botany, Trichome, Exudate, Aphid and Myzus persicae. His work in the fields of Lycopersicon, Homoptera, Empoasca fabae and PEST analysis overlaps with other areas such as Acylsugar. As part of his studies on Trichome, Ward M. Tingey frequently links adjacent subjects like Cultivar.

His Exudate study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Polyphenol oxidase, Biochemistry, Enzyme, Peroxidase and Oxidase test. His research combines Aphididae and Aphid. His research integrates issues of Sesquiterpene, Solanum tuberosum and Pest control in his study of Myzus persicae.

His most cited work include:

• Glycoalkaloids as pest resistance factors (121 citations)
• Aphid deterrence by glucose esters in glandular trichome exudate of the wild tomato,Lycopersicon pennellii. (107 citations)
• Aspects of Interaction Between Plant Genotypes and Biological Control (90 citations)

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

Ward M. Tingey spends much of his time researching Botany, Trichome, Aphid, Agronomy and Cultivar. His study brings together the fields of Horticulture and Botany. Ward M. Tingey interconnects Solanum, Insect and Exudate in the investigation of issues within Trichome.

His Aphid research incorporates elements of Macrosiphum euphorbiae and Aphididae. In the subject of general Agronomy, his work in Infestation, Resistance, Pest control and Crop is often linked to Lygus, thereby combining diverse domains of study. His work carried out in the field of Cultivar brings together such families of science as Integrated pest management and Seedling.

He most often published in these fields:

• Botany (64.77%)
• Trichome (43.18%)
• Aphid (31.82%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1997-2012)?

• Agronomy (29.55%)
• Cultivar (27.27%)
• Solanum tuberosum (23.86%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Agronomy, Cultivar, Solanum tuberosum, Phthorimaea operculella and Lepidoptera genitalia. His Agronomy research integrates issues from Aphis craccivora, Aphididae and Horticulture. Ward M. Tingey focuses mostly in the field of Cultivar, narrowing it down to matters related to Homoptera and, in some cases, Exudate.

Solanum tuberosum is a primary field of his research addressed under Botany. His work on Gelechiidae as part of general Lepidoptera genitalia research is often related to Preharvest, thus linking different fields of science. His Pupa research includes themes of Pest control, PEST analysis and Hybrid.

Between 1997 and 2012, his most popular works were:

• Glandular trichomes of Solanum berthaultii and its hybrids with potato deter oviposition and impair growth of potato tuber moth (39 citations)
• Multiple evolutionary origins of knockdown resistance (kdr) in pyrethroid-resistant Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata (33 citations)
• Stylet Penetration Activities by Aphis craccivora (Homoptera: Aphididae) on Plants and Excised Plant Parts of Resistant and Susceptible Cultivars of Cowpea (Leguminosae) (28 citations)

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

• Botany
• Genus
• Ecology

His primary areas of study are Cultivar, Single-nucleotide polymorphism, Genotyping, Pyrethroid and Leptinotarsa. The Cultivar study combines topics in areas such as Vigna, Aphid and Aphis craccivora, Aphididae. His Single-nucleotide polymorphism research overlaps with Knockdown resistance, Colorado potato beetle and Genetics.
