Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Fungus
  • Ecology

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Botany, Mycorrhiza, Ectomycorrhiza, Eucalyptus and Pisolithus. His Botany research integrates issues from Soil water and Plant nutrition. His Mycorrhiza research includes elements of Agronomy, Pasture, Grassland, Trifolium repens and Root system.

His study explores the link between Ectomycorrhiza and topics such as Myrtaceae that cross with problems in Tannin, Hysterangium, Eucalyptus globulus, Hebeloma and Eucalyptus camaldulensis. His Eucalyptus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Agroforestry and Woody plant. His Pisolithus study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Laccaria laccata, Inoculation and Seedling.

His most cited work include:

  • Working with Mycorrhizas in Forestry and Agriculture (960 citations)
  • Ectomycorrhizal formation in Eucalyptus. I. Pure culture synthesis, host specificity and mycorrhizal compatibility with Pinus radiata (153 citations)
  • Underground transfer of nitrogen between pasture plants infected with vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (133 citations)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Botany, Eucalyptus, Ectomycorrhiza, Mycorrhiza and Inoculation. Nicholas Malajczuk combines subjects such as Pisolithus and Horticulture with his study of Botany. His research integrates issues of Nutrient, Agronomy and Pinus radiata in his study of Eucalyptus.

The various areas that Nicholas Malajczuk examines in his Ectomycorrhiza study include Hysterangium, Laccaria, Mycelium, Laccaria laccata and Fungus. His Mycorrhiza study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Eucalyptus marginata and Agar. The Inoculation study combines topics in areas such as Colonization and Seedling.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (66.98%)
  • Eucalyptus (31.13%)
  • Ectomycorrhiza (30.19%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1996-2013)?

  • Botany (66.98%)
  • Eucalyptus (31.13%)
  • Horticulture (20.75%)

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

His primary areas of study are Botany, Eucalyptus, Horticulture, Pisolithus and Ectomycorrhiza. Nicholas Malajczuk interconnects Nutrient, Laccaria and Scleroderma in the investigation of issues within Botany. His Eucalyptus research incorporates themes from Productivity, Agronomy, Human fertilization and Myrtaceae.

His Horticulture study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Ectosymbiosis and Spore. His Pisolithus research focuses on Sporocarp and how it relates to Introduced species, Eucalyptus camaldulensis, Spore germination and Germination. His Ectomycorrhiza study introduces a deeper knowledge of Mycorrhiza.

Between 1996 and 2013, his most popular works were:

  • The diversity of ectomycorrhizal fungi associated with introduced Pinus spp. in the Southern Hemisphere, with particular reference to Western Australia (67 citations)
  • Effects of bacteria on mycorrhizal development and growth of container grown Eucalyptus diversicolor F. Muell. seedlings (58 citations)
  • Mycorrhiza formation and growth of Eucalyptus globulus seedlings inoculated with spores of various ectomycorrhizal fungi (45 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Fungus
  • Ecology

Nicholas Malajczuk mainly focuses on Botany, Ectomycorrhiza, Laccaria, Mycorrhiza and Pisolithus. Nicholas Malajczuk frequently studies issues relating to Scleroderma and Botany. His Ectomycorrhiza research includes themes of Rhizobacteria, Eucalyptus globulus, Shoot, Eucalyptus diversicolor and Laccaria laccata.

His Eucalyptus globulus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Basidiocarp, Nutrient cycle and Plant litter. His work focuses on many connections between Dry weight and other disciplines, such as Nutrient, that overlap with his field of interest in Agronomy. His Pinus radiata research integrates issues from Flora, Ectosymbiosis and Hebeloma crustuliniforme.
