Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Richard D. Noyes' research focuses on plant reproduction, genetics, and evolution within the Asteraceae family. His work has investigated mechanisms of apomixis, a form of asexual reproduction in flowering plants, particularly in species like Erigeron annuus. Noyes has also utilized DNA sequence data, specifically ITS regions, to explore phylogenetic relationships and evolutionary insights within genera such as Erigeron, Helianthus, and Psiadia. His publications have addressed topics including the role of specific compounds in plant disease, the genetic control of reproductive modes, and the biogeographical dispersal and speciation of plants on islands. Noyes has an h-index of 19 and has authored 37 publications, which have been cited over 1,200 times. He has collaborated with researchers from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville and the University of Central Arkansas.
