Claude Murat

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Ecology
• Fungus
• Gene

Claude Murat mainly investigates Botany, Genome, Ecology, Genetics and Gene. His study in the field of Fungus, Agaricomycetes and Mycelium also crosses realms of Laccaria bicolor. His Ecology research integrates issues from Tuber melanosporum, Truffle and Pyrosequencing.

The various areas that Claude Murat examines in his Truffle study include Evolutionary biology, Sister group and Genetic variation. His work on Comparative genomics and Haustorium is typically connected to Fungal genetics as part of general Genetics study, connecting several disciplines of science. His Gene study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Mushroom, Agaricus bisporus and Agaricus.

His most cited work include:

• The paleozoic origin of enzymatic lignin decomposition reconstructed from 31 fungal genomes (1059 citations)
• 454 Pyrosequencing analyses of forest soils reveal an unexpectedly high fungal diversity (722 citations)
• Convergent losses of decay mechanisms and rapid turnover of symbiosis genes in mycorrhizal mutualists. (527 citations)

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

Claude Murat spends much of his time researching Botany, Truffle, Tuber melanosporum, Ecology and Genome. His work on Fungus as part of general Botany research is often related to Pezizomycetes, thus linking different fields of science. In Fungus, he works on issues like Tuber magnatum, which are connected to Thelephoraceae and Molecular typing.

His studies deal with areas such as Genotype, Genetic structure and Horticulture, Orchard as well as Truffle. Claude Murat combines subjects such as Sexual reproduction, Black truffle, Genetic variability and Heterothallic, Mating type with his study of Tuber melanosporum. His work in the fields of Genome, such as Genomics and Genome size, overlaps with other areas such as Fungal genetics.

He most often published in these fields:

• Botany (69.16%)
• Truffle (57.01%)
• Tuber melanosporum (34.58%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

• Truffle (57.01%)
• Botany (69.16%)
• Fungus (28.97%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Truffle, Botany, Fungus, Tuber melanosporum and Tuber aestivum. His Truffle research incorporates themes from Mating type and Horticulture, Orchard. His work in the fields of Hypha overlaps with other areas such as Pezizomycetes.

His Fungus study incorporates themes from Phenotype, Gene expression, Genome and Gene. His Genome research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Evolutionary biology, Mucoromycotina, Ascomycota, Cantharellales and Thelephorales. His Tuber melanosporum study which covers Heterothallic that intersects with Reproduction, Genetic structure, Genotype and Sexual reproduction.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• Comparative genomics and transcriptomics depict ericoid mycorrhizal fungi as versatile saprotrophs and plant mutualists (68 citations)
• Pezizomycetes genomes reveal the molecular basis of ectomycorrhizal truffle lifestyle (37 citations)
• Large-scale genome sequencing of mycorrhizal fungi provides insights into the early evolution of symbiotic traits. (25 citations)

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

• Ecology
• Fungus
• Gene

His main research concerns Botany, Tuber melanosporum, Truffle, Genome and Comparative genomics. His studies in Botany integrate themes in fields like Meiosis and Mating. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Heterothallic and Horticulture, Orchard.

In his research on the topic of Genome, Phylogenetics is strongly related with Russulales. His Comparative genomics study is concerned with the field of Gene as a whole. The Tuber aestivum study combines topics in areas such as Range, Fungus and Abiotic component.
