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

His primary areas of study are Botany, Fusarium, Eucalyptus, Species complex and Phylogenetics. With his scientific publications, his incorporates both Botany and Plant litter. His Fusarium study also includes

  • Fusarium oxysporum, which have a strong connection to Cavendish banana, Fungus and Phylogenetic inference,
  • Abundance, Internal transcribed spacer, Gene and Genetic variation most often made with reference to Fusarium wilt.

His Species complex research integrates issues from Evolutionary biology, Type, Identification and Morphology. Lorenzo Lombard has researched Phylogenetics in several fields, including Taxonomy, Nomenclature, Species diversity and Phylogenetic tree. His Phyllosticta study combines topics in areas such as Diaporthe, Genus and Pyricularia.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Phylogeny and genetic diversity of the banana Fusarium wilt pathogen Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense in the Indonesian centre of origin (48 citations)
  • Genera of phytopathogenic fungi: GOPHY 2. (40 citations)
  • Epitypification of Fusarium oxysporum - clearing the taxonomic chaos. (26 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Genus
  • Fungus

His scientific interests lie mostly in Botany, Fusarium oxysporum, Phyllosticta, Fusarium and Taxon. Lorenzo Lombard mostly deals with Geastrum in his studies of Botany. His Fusarium oxysporum research includes elements of Species complex, Phylogenetic inference, Identification and Fungus.

He interconnects Eucalyptus and Corymbia ficifolia in the investigation of issues within Phyllosticta. The various areas that Lorenzo Lombard examines in his Fusarium study include Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. cubense, Fusarium wilt, Chaos and Cavendish banana. The Taxon study combines topics in areas such as Zoology, Nomenclature, Phylogenetic tree, Phylogenetics and Species diversity.
