Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Bacteria
  • Gene
  • Ecology

His scientific interests lie mostly in Symbiosis, Phylogenetics, Insect, Symbiotic bacteria and Botany. His Symbiosis study incorporates themes from Zoology, Host, Burkholderia and Midgut. In his work, Fenitrothion and Pest control is strongly intertwined with PEST analysis, which is a subfield of Host.

His study in Phylogenetics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Microbiology and Phylogenetic tree. His study with Insect involves better knowledge in Ecology. His study in Obligate and Mutualism is carried out as part of his Botany studies.

His most cited work include:

  • Wolbachia as a bacteriocyte-associated nutritional mutualist (494 citations)
  • Symbiont-mediated insecticide resistance (390 citations)
  • Symbiont-mediated insecticide resistance (390 citations)

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

Burkholderia, Symbiosis, Host, Insect and Microbiology are his primary areas of study. His work carried out in the field of Burkholderia brings together such families of science as Zoology, Fenitrothion, Botany and Coreoidea. His research in Symbiosis intersects with topics in Riptortus pedestris and Midgut.

He has researched Host in several fields, including PEST analysis, Mutant and Antimicrobial peptides. Yoshitomo Kikuchi interconnects Mutualism, Nymph, Evolutionary biology and Cell biology in the investigation of issues within Insect. As part of the same scientific family, Yoshitomo Kikuchi usually focuses on Microbiology, concentrating on Phylogenetics and intersecting with Phylogenetic tree.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Burkholderia (63.85%)
  • Symbiosis (61.54%)
  • Host (54.62%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Burkholderia (63.85%)
  • Midgut (42.31%)
  • Insect (56.92%)

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

Yoshitomo Kikuchi mostly deals with Burkholderia, Midgut, Insect, Symbiosis and Bacteria. His Burkholderia study also includes fields such as

  • Aposymbiotic, which have a strong connection to Zoology,
  • Microorganism, which have a strong connection to Instar, Alydidae, Heteroptera, Botany and Detoxification,
  • Obligate, Coreus marginatus, Paraburkholderia and Monophyly most often made with reference to Coreoidea,
  • Lygaeoidea and related Comparative genomics, Largidae and Clade. Yoshitomo Kikuchi combines subjects such as Whole genome sequencing, Togo hemipterus, Gene, Cell biology and Burkholderia sp with his study of Midgut.

Yoshitomo Kikuchi has included themes like Gut flora, Host, Physiology and Genomics in his Insect study. A large part of his Symbiosis studies is devoted to Symbiotic bacteria. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Metabolic pathway, Mutant and Microbiology.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Host-symbiont specificity determined by microbe-microbe competition in an insect gut. (29 citations)
  • Host-symbiont specificity determined by microbe-microbe competition in an insect gut. (29 citations)
  • Comparative cytology, physiology and transcriptomics of Burkholderia insecticola in symbiosis with the bean bug Riptortus pedestris and in culture. (16 citations)

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

  • Bacteria
  • Gene
  • Ecology

Yoshitomo Kikuchi mainly investigates Burkholderia, Bacteria, Insect, Symbiosis and Midgut. His Bacteria research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Morphogenesis and Physiology. The concepts of his Morphogenesis study are interwoven with issues in Marine invertebrates and Microbiology.

His Physiology research incorporates themes from Symbiotic bacteria and Metabolic pathway. His studies in Human pathogen integrate themes in fields like Zoology, Host, Competition and Colonization.
