Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Botany
  • Ecology

His primary scientific interests are in Botany, Symbiosis, Rhizobia, Burkholderia and Burkholderia phymatum. J. Peter W. Young has researched Botany in several fields, including Biodiversity, Mycorrhiza, Glomeromycota and Rhizobium. J. Peter W. Young works mostly in the field of Biodiversity, limiting it down to concerns involving Habitat and, occasionally, Phylogenetics.

In his study, Polymerase chain reaction is strongly linked to Ascomycota, which falls under the umbrella field of Glomeromycota. His Symbiosis research also works with subjects such as

  • Evolutionary biology, which have a strong connection to Fungus, Mucoromycotina, Rhizophagus irregularis, Genomic organization and Genome,
  • Nitrogen fixation and related Alphaproteobacteria. As a member of one scientific family, J. Peter W. Young mostly works in the field of Rhizobia, focusing on Horizontal gene transfer and, on occasion, Species complex and Introduced species.

His most cited work include:

  • The role of ecological theory in microbial ecology (655 citations)
  • The genome of Rhizobium leguminosarum has recognizable core and accessory components (463 citations)
  • Improved PCR primers for the detection and identification of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (452 citations)

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

J. Peter W. Young mainly focuses on Botany, Genetics, Rhizobia, Gene and Genome. His Botany study incorporates themes from Mesorhizobium, Burkholderia, Symbiosis, Root nodule and Rhizobium. J. Peter W. Young combines subjects such as Microbiology and Cupriavidus with his study of Burkholderia.

His Rhizobia research integrates issues from Genetic transfer and Genetic diversity. His Genome research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Evolutionary biology and Glomeromycota. J. Peter W. Young focuses mostly in the field of Phylogenetics, narrowing it down to topics relating to Phylogenetic tree and, in certain cases, Sequence analysis.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (50.83%)
  • Genetics (26.67%)
  • Rhizobia (22.50%)

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

  • Rhizobia (22.50%)
  • Gene (20.00%)
  • Symbiosis (15.83%)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Rhizobia, Gene, Symbiosis, Genetics and Genome. His Rhizobia study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Allele, Allele frequency, Root nodule and Systematics, Taxonomy. Botany covers he research in Taxonomy.

His research in the fields of Phylogenetics, Replicon and Synthetic DNA overlaps with other disciplines such as Profiling and Multiplexing. His research in Symbiosis intersects with topics in Nitrogen fixation and Host. The various areas that he examines in his Genome study include Evolutionary biology and Rhizobium leguminosarum.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Horizontal Transfer of Symbiosis Genes within and Between Rhizobial Genera: Occurrence and Importance (51 citations)
  • Coordinated regulation of core and accessory genes in the multipartite genome of Sinorhizobium fredii (22 citations)
  • Defining functional diversity for lignocellulose degradation in a microbial community using multi-omics studies (19 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Ecology
  • Botany

J. Peter W. Young mostly deals with Rhizobia, Symbiosis, Genome, Plasmid and Genetics. His work deals with themes such as Ecology, Systematics, Botany, Taxonomy and Gene transfer, which intersect with Rhizobia. He has included themes like Evolutionary biology, Evolutionary ecology, Host plants, Nitrogen fixation and Plant science in his Symbiosis study.

J. Peter W. Young interconnects Rhizobium, Biodiversity, Fabaceae and Phylogenetic tree in the investigation of issues within Genome. His study with Plasmid involves better knowledge in Gene. Comparative genomics, Niche adaptation and Operon are the core of his Genetics study.
