  • 2017 - Fellow of the American Phytopathological Society

Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Agriculture
  • Agronomy

Gary P. Munkvold spends much of his time researching Fusarium, Mycotoxin, Agronomy, Fungi imperfecti and Botany. His Fusarium research entails a greater understanding of Horticulture. In the subject of general Mycotoxin, his work in Mycotoxin contamination is often linked to Animal health, thereby combining diverse domains of study.

His Agronomy study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Geographic distribution, European corn borer and Spore. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Veterinary medicine and Poaceae. He has researched Poaceae in several fields, including Fumonisin and Stalk.

His most cited work include:

  • Fumonisins in Maize: Can We Reduce Their Occurrence? (403 citations)
  • Cultural and genetic approaches to managing mycotoxins in maize. (337 citations)
  • Comparison of Fumonisin Concentrations in Kernels of Transgenic Bt Maize Hybrids and Nontransgenic Hybrids. (305 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Agronomy, Horticulture, Botany, Fusarium and Mycotoxin. His Agronomy study frequently draws connections between adjacent fields such as Stalk. His Botany study frequently links to adjacent areas such as Veterinary medicine.

His research integrates issues of Fungi imperfecti, Hybrid and Root rot in his study of Fusarium. The various areas that Gary P. Munkvold examines in his Hybrid study include Genetically modified maize and European corn borer. His Mycotoxin study often links to related topics such as Aspergillus.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (43.92%)
  • Horticulture (26.98%)
  • Botany (25.40%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2014-2021)?

  • Fusarium oxysporum (6.35%)
  • Botany (25.40%)
  • Seedling (11.11%)

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

Fusarium oxysporum, Botany, Seedling, Fusarium and Horticulture are his primary areas of study. His Seedling study introduces a deeper knowledge of Agronomy. His Agronomy study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Aspergillus species and Stalk.

His study in Fusarium is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Clade, Mycotoxin, Genus, Taxonomy and Blight. His study of Fumonisin is a part of Mycotoxin. His Germination study in the realm of Horticulture connects with subjects such as Xanthomonas vasicola.

Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Fusarium Species and Their Associated Mycotoxins (57 citations)
  • Mycotoxins in Corn: Occurrence, Impacts, and Management (40 citations)
  • Transcriptome profiling of soybean ( Glycine max ) roots challenged with pathogenic and non-pathogenic isolates of Fusarium oxysporum (33 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Agriculture
  • Agronomy

Fusarium, Fusarium oxysporum, Seedling, Agronomy and Blight are his primary areas of study. Gary P. Munkvold combines subjects such as Taxonomy, Mycotoxin and Agricultural crops with his study of Fusarium. Fusarium oxysporum is a subfield of Botany that Gary P. Munkvold studies.

His studies deal with areas such as Rhizoctonia solani, Root length, Seed treatment, Fusarium temperatum and Nematode as well as Seedling. Many of his studies on Agronomy apply to Pratylenchus penetrans as well. His Blight research includes elements of Plant disease resistance, Plant defense against herbivory and Root rot.
