Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Bacteria
  • 16S ribosomal RNA
  • Enzyme

Wen-Ming Chen mainly focuses on Botany, Burkholderia, Burkholderia phymatum, Microbiology and Paraburkholderia. His research on Botany focuses in particular on Taxonomy. His Burkholderia research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Rhizobia and Nitrogen fixation.

In his work, Nitrogenase, Fabaceae and Mimosa diplotricha is strongly intertwined with Cupriavidus taiwanensis, which is a subfield of Burkholderia phymatum. Wen-Ming Chen has included themes like Proteobacteria and 16S ribosomal RNA in his Microbiology study. His Paraburkholderia study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Burkholderia caribensis and Root nodule.

His most cited work include:

  • Ralstonia taiwanensis sp. nov., isolated from root nodules of Mimosa species and sputum of a cystic fibrosis patient. (462 citations)
  • Fermentative hydrogen production with Clostridium butyricum CGS5 isolated from anaerobic sewage sludge (331 citations)
  • Legume symbiotic nitrogen fixation by beta-proteobacteria is widespread in nature. (307 citations)

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

16S ribosomal RNA, Botany, Microbiology, Phylogenetic tree and Strain are his primary areas of study. His 16S ribosomal RNA research integrates issues from genomic DNA, Taxonomy and Phylogenetics. His Botany study also includes fields such as

  • Burkholderia which is related to area like Rhizobia and Cupriavidus,
  • Burkholderia phymatum which intersects with area such as Cupriavidus taiwanensis.

He usually deals with Microbiology and limits it to topics linked to Sphingomonadaceae and Alphaproteobacteria and Novosphingobium. His study in the field of Flavobacteriaceae also crosses realms of Phosphatidylglycerol. His Strain research incorporates themes from Genus, Lineage and Terpenoid.

He most often published in these fields:

  • 16S ribosomal RNA (70.24%)
  • Botany (47.40%)
  • Microbiology (47.06%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • 16S ribosomal RNA (70.24%)
  • Phylogenetic tree (43.94%)
  • Gene (23.18%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include 16S ribosomal RNA, Phylogenetic tree, Gene, Microbiology and genomic DNA. His 16S ribosomal RNA research incorporates elements of Genus, Botany and Strain. His studies examine the connections between Botany and genetics, as well as such issues in Gammaproteobacteria, with regards to Flagellum.

His work deals with themes such as Flavobacterium, Betaproteobacteria, Alphaproteobacteria and Taxonomy, which intersect with Phylogenetic tree. His work in Gene covers topics such as Spermidine which are related to areas like Sphingobium. The Microbiology study combines topics in areas such as Peptidoglycan, Phylogenetics and Type species.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The oil-contaminated soil diazotroph Azoarcus olearius DQS-4T is genetically and phenotypically similar to the model grass endophyte Azoarcus sp. BH72 (20 citations)
  • Comparative genomics: Dominant coral-bacterium Endozoicomonas acroporae metabolizes dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP). (14 citations)
  • Paracoccus fontiphilus sp. nov., isolated from a freshwater spring (14 citations)

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

  • Bacteria
  • 16S ribosomal RNA
  • Enzyme

Wen-Ming Chen mostly deals with 16S ribosomal RNA, Phylogenetic tree, Microbiology, Strain and Bacteroidetes. His 16S ribosomal RNA research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Phylogenetics, Botany and Type species. His Botany study combines topics in areas such as Nitrogen fixation, rpoB and Gammaproteobacteria.

The various areas that Wen-Ming Chen examines in his Phylogenetic tree study include genomic DNA, Betaproteobacteria, Burkholderiales and Alphaproteobacteria. His work in Strain tackles topics such as Genus which are related to areas like Aestuariibacter and Glaciecola. His Bacteroidetes research includes elements of Flavobacterium, Cytophagaceae, Sequence analysis and Ribosomal RNA.
