Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Bacteria
  • Ecology
  • Gene

His main research concerns Microbiology, Bacteria, Ecosystem, Ecology and Homology. His Microbiology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both 16S ribosomal RNA and Microbial population biology. His study focuses on the intersection of Microbial population biology and fields such as Clostridium with connections in the field of Community structure.

William E. Holben interconnects Southern blot, Restriction enzyme, Broiler and Ileum in the investigation of issues within Bacteria. His research investigates the connection between Ecosystem and topics such as Abundance that intersect with issues in Soil microbiology. His study in the fields of Introduced species, Invasive species and Centaurea maculosa under the domain of Ecology overlaps with other disciplines such as Charcoal.

His most cited work include:

  • Soil biota and exotic plant invasion (713 citations)
  • DNA Probe Method for the Detection of Specific Microorganisms in the Soil Bacterial Community (480 citations)
  • Wildfire‐Produced Charcoal Directly Influences Nitrogen Cycling in Ponderosa Pine Forests (352 citations)

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

Ecology, Microbial population biology, Bacteria, Microbiology and Genetics are his primary areas of study. His Ecology study frequently links to related topics such as Sediment. His studies deal with areas such as Temperature gradient gel electrophoresis, Hyporheic zone, Soil water, Microbial ecology and Environmental chemistry as well as Microbial population biology.

He works mostly in the field of Bacteria, limiting it down to topics relating to Fractionation and, in certain cases, Computational biology and DNA, as a part of the same area of interest. The Microbiology study combines topics in areas such as Sphingomonas paucimobilis, 16S ribosomal RNA, Soil microbiology and Homology. His research integrates issues of Lysis, Nucleic acid and Real-time polymerase chain reaction in his study of Hybridization probe.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (31.71%)
  • Microbial population biology (28.05%)
  • Bacteria (21.95%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2010-2018)?

  • Microbial population biology (28.05%)
  • Ecology (31.71%)
  • Fractionation (4.88%)

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

William E. Holben spends much of his time researching Microbial population biology, Ecology, Fractionation, Greenland ice sheet and Microbial biodegradation. His Microbial population biology research incorporates elements of Isolation, Microbiology, Environmental chemistry, Carbon dioxide and Bacterial dna. His Carbon dioxide research integrates issues from Abundance, Functional genes and Soil microbiology.

His Ecology research includes elements of Microbial ecology and Stable-isotope probing. In his research, DNA is intimately related to Species evenness, which falls under the overarching field of Fractionation. As part of one scientific family, William E. Holben deals mainly with the area of Bacteria, narrowing it down to issues related to the Competition, and often Botany and Microorganism.

Between 2010 and 2018, his most popular works were:

  • Linking bacterial identities and ecosystem processes: can 'omic' analyses be more than the sum of their parts? (99 citations)
  • Isolation and Purification of Bacterial DNA from Soil (68 citations)
  • Bacterial endophytes enhance competition by invasive plants. (53 citations)

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

  • Bacteria
  • Ecology
  • Gene

Microbial population biology, Ecology, Isolation, Bacterial dna and Microbiology are his primary areas of study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Microcosm, Greenland ice sheet, Ice sheet, Mineralization and Metagenomics. His work deals with themes such as Microbial ecology and Stable-isotope probing, which intersect with Ecology.
