Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Genus

Angus J. Carnegie mainly investigates Botany, Mycosphaerella, Eucalyptus, Teratosphaeria and Myrtaceae. His study in Eucalyptus globulus, Eucalyptus dunnii, Eucalyptus pilularis, Corymbia and Tree breeding falls under the purview of Botany. His Eucalyptus research includes elements of Taxonomy, Eucalyptus sieberi and Botryosphaeriaceae, Neofusicoccum.

Microfungi is closely connected to Cercospora in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Teratosphaeria. His studies deal with areas such as Ascospore, Woody plant and Taxon as well as Myrtaceae. The concepts of his Ecology study are interwoven with issues in Agroforestry and Common name.

His most cited work include:

  • Introducing the Consolidated Species Concept to resolve species in the Teratosphaeriaceae. (129 citations)
  • Unravelling Mycosphaerella: do you believe in genera? (123 citations)
  • Uredo rangelii , a taxon in the guava rust complex, newly recorded on Myrtaceae in Australia (107 citations)

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

His main research concerns Botany, Eucalyptus, Ecology, Myrtaceae and Mycosphaerella. Botany is frequently linked to Horticulture in his study. His Eucalyptus study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Host, Agronomy, Leaf spot and Plant litter.

His Myrtaceae research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Plant community and Native plant. His study on Mycosphaerella also encompasses disciplines like

  • Teratosphaeria which intersects with area such as Genus,
  • Eucalyptus globulus that intertwine with fields like Leaf disease. His work deals with themes such as Agroforestry, Biosecurity and Introduced species, which intersect with Invasive species.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (47.69%)
  • Eucalyptus (34.62%)
  • Ecology (30.77%)

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

  • Botany (47.69%)
  • Eucalyptus (34.62%)
  • Myrtaceae (27.69%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Botany, Eucalyptus, Myrtaceae, Phyllosticta and Invasive species. His work carried out in the field of Botany brings together such families of science as Pathogen and Resistance. His Eucalyptus study incorporates themes from Corymbia ficifolia and Twig.

Myrtaceae is a subfield of Ecology that Angus J. Carnegie explores. Angus J. Carnegie has included themes like Geastrum and Plant litter in his Phyllosticta study. His Invasive species research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in National park, Agroforestry and Botanical garden.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Genera of phytopathogenic fungi: GOPHY 2. (40 citations)
  • Fungal planet description sheets: 868–950 (35 citations)
  • New and Interesting Fungi. 2. (25 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Genus

Angus J. Carnegie mainly focuses on Eucalyptus, Botany, Phyllosticta, Mycology and Plant litter. He studies Teratosphaeria, a branch of Eucalyptus. His work on Genus, Pyricularia and Eucalyptus microcorys is typically connected to Microdochium and Diaporthe as part of general Botany study, connecting several disciplines of science.

Angus J. Carnegie interconnects Strelitzia, Prunus padus and Twig in the investigation of issues within Phyllosticta. His Mycology study combines topics in areas such as Corymbia, Elsinoë, Neofusicoccum and Nomen novum. The study incorporates disciplines such as Corymbia ficifolia and Geastrum in addition to Plant litter.
