Zeyaur R. Khan

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Agriculture
• Ecology
• Agronomy

His primary scientific interests are in Agronomy, Stemborer, Striga, Desmodium and Intercropping. Zeyaur R. Khan applies his multidisciplinary studies on Agronomy and Pennisetum purpureum in his research. His Stemborer research incorporates elements of Busseola fusca and Crop.

His work carried out in the field of Striga brings together such families of science as Trap crop, Agriculture and Agroforestry. His studies in Intercropping integrate themes in fields like Companion planting, Monocropping and Infestation. Zeyaur R. Khan has included themes like Biological pest control and Push–pull strategy in his Integrated pest management study.

His most cited work include:

• The Use of Push-Pull Strategies in Integrated Pest Management (924 citations)
• Intercropping increases parasitism of pests (315 citations)
• BIOLOGY AND MANAGEMENT OF ECONOMICALLY IMPORTANT LEPIDOPTERAN CEREAL STEM BORERS IN AFRICA (298 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Agronomy, Striga, Stemborer, Desmodium and Striga hermonthica. His work on Intercropping, Trap crop and Crop as part of his general Agronomy study is frequently connected to Pennisetum purpureum, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science. His Striga research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Agroforestry, Agriculture and Agricultural science.

His Stemborer research includes elements of Melinis minutiflora, Busseola fusca and Herbivore. His studies deal with areas such as Sorghum, Cropping system, Crop yield and Cultural control as well as Desmodium. His research investigates the connection with Striga hermonthica and areas like Allelopathy which intersect with concerns in Exudate.

He most often published in these fields:

• Agronomy (52.56%)
• Striga (31.63%)
• Stemborer (32.09%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

• Agronomy (52.56%)
• Stemborer (32.09%)
• Striga (31.63%)

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

Zeyaur R. Khan spends much of his time researching Agronomy, Stemborer, Striga, Agriculture and Integrated pest management. The Agronomy study combines topics in areas such as Herbivore and Monocropping. Stemborer is the subject of his research, which falls under Chilo.

In general Striga, his work in Striga hermonthica is often linked to Environmental niche modelling linking many areas of study. His research in Agriculture tackles topics such as Poverty which are related to areas like Food security, Farm income and Public economics. His work on Sorghum expands to the thematically related Integrated pest management.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• Tests of General Relativity with GW170817 (210 citations)
• A climate-adapted push-pull system effectively controls fall armyworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J E Smith), in maize in East Africa (92 citations)
• Push–pull farming system in Kenya: Implications for economic and social welfare (15 citations)

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

• Agriculture
• Botany
• Ecology

His scientific interests lie mostly in Striga, Stemborer, Agronomy, Chilo and Integrated pest management. Zeyaur R. Khan does research in Striga, focusing on Striga hermonthica specifically. He combines subjects such as Melinis minutiflora, Herbivore, Monocropping, Desmodium and Parasitism with his study of Stemborer.

His Agronomy research focuses on Sorghum, Intercropping, Companion planting, Sowing and Crop. His Chilo study incorporates themes from Cultivar, Crop protection, Parasitoid, Crambidae and Poaceae. His Integrated pest management research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Poverty, Farm income, Agriculture and Public economics.
