Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Zoology
  • Gene

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Zoology, Phylogenetic tree, Phylogenetics, Monophyly and Ribosomal RNA. His studies in Zoology integrate themes in fields like Ecology, Protozoa and Molecular phylogenetics. Within one scientific family, Weibo Song focuses on topics pertaining to Taxon under Phylogenetics, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Philasterida.

His work deals with themes such as Evolutionary biology, Phyllopharyngea, Incertae sedis and Frontonia, which intersect with Monophyly. His study in Ciliate extends to Ribosomal RNA with its themes. The study incorporates disciplines such as Bay, Hypotrichida, Marine ecosystem, Anatomy and Marine habitats in addition to Ciliate.

His most cited work include:

  • The All-Data-Based Evolutionary Hypothesis of Ciliated Protists with a Revised Classification of the Phylum Ciliophora (Eukaryota, Alveolata). (178 citations)
  • Periphytic ciliate colonization: annual cycle and responses to environmental conditions (107 citations)
  • Faunistic studies on marine ciliates from the Antarctic benthic area, including descriptions of one epizoic form, 6 new species and, 2 new genera (Protozoa: Ciliophora) (84 citations)

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

Weibo Song mainly investigates Zoology, Ciliate, Phylogenetics, Phylogenetic tree and Taxonomy. His work investigates the relationship between Zoology and topics such as Protozoa that intersect with problems in Macronucleus. His study explores the link between Ciliate and topics such as Anatomy that cross with problems in Cyrtophorida and Membranelle.

Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Taxon and Phylogenetics. His Phylogenetic tree research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Evolutionary biology and Ribosomal RNA. His work carried out in the field of Monophyly brings together such families of science as Karyorelictea and Philasterida.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Zoology (57.27%)
  • Ciliate (44.85%)
  • Phylogenetics (39.70%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Phylogenetics (39.70%)
  • Taxonomy (36.36%)
  • Zoology (57.27%)

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

Weibo Song spends much of his time researching Phylogenetics, Taxonomy, Zoology, Evolutionary biology and Phylogenetic tree. Weibo Song works in the field of Phylogenetics, namely Monophyly. His Taxonomy research incorporates themes from Ribosomal RNA and Protozoa, Oligotrich.

His Zoology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Ontogeny and Molecular phylogenetics. Weibo Song combines subjects such as Genomic data, Genome, Ciliate, Macronucleus and Systematics with his study of Evolutionary biology. His research in Phylogenetic tree intersects with topics in Taxon, Protist and Zooid.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The All-Data-Based Evolutionary Hypothesis of Ciliated Protists with a Revised Classification of the Phylum Ciliophora (Eukaryota, Alveolata). (178 citations)
  • Beyond the “Code”: A Guide to the Description and Documentation of Biodiversity in Ciliated Protists (Alveolata, Ciliophora) (52 citations)
  • Disentangling sources of variation in SSU rDNA sequences from single cell analyses of ciliates: impact of copy number variation and experimental error. (49 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Gene
  • Botany

Phylogenetics, Zoology, Evolutionary biology, Taxonomy and Genetics are his primary areas of study. Weibo Song mostly deals with Ribosomal DNA in his studies of Phylogenetics. He has researched Zoology in several fields, including Sister group, Protozoa, Monophyly, Prostomatea and Karyorelictea.

His Evolutionary biology research integrates issues from Phylogenetic tree, Paleontology, Morphology, Trachelocercidae and Ssu rrna gene. His Phylogenetic tree research focuses on Clade in particular. His Taxonomy study improves the overall literature in Ecology.
