Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Genus

Ecology, Botany, Competition, Species richness and Annotation are his primary areas of study. Peter G. Kennedy merges Ecology with Biological dispersal in his study. His study in the field of Evergreen forest, Canopy and Evergreen also crosses realms of Boletales.

His research in Competition intersects with topics in Ectomycorrhiza and Interspecific competition. His study in Species richness is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Edaphic, Taxon, Host, Understory and Biogeography. His research investigates the connection between Annotation and topics such as Computational biology that intersect with problems in Bioinformatics.

His most cited work include:

  • FUNGuild: An open annotation tool for parsing fungal community datasets by ecological guild (1027 citations)
  • The UNITE database for molecular identification of fungi: handling dark taxa and parallel taxonomic classifications. (550 citations)
  • A strong species–area relationship for eukaryotic soil microbes: island size matters for ectomycorrhizal fungi (275 citations)

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

Peter G. Kennedy focuses on Ecology, Botany, Host, Species richness and Symbiosis. His study involves Ecosystem, Community structure, Taxon, Biodiversity and Ecology, a branch of Ecology. The various areas that Peter G. Kennedy examines in his Taxon study include Evergreen and Abiotic component.

Peter G. Kennedy combines subjects such as Frankia, Rhizopogon, Competition and Ectomycorrhiza with his study of Botany. His research integrates issues of Abundance, Fungus, Generalist and specialist species and Suillus in his study of Host. His work in Species richness addresses issues such as Biogeography, which are connected to fields such as Edaphic.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (56.38%)
  • Botany (55.32%)
  • Host (27.66%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Ecology (56.38%)
  • Carbon cycle (11.70%)
  • Botany (55.32%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Ecology, Carbon cycle, Botany, Host and Decomposer. His Guild, Ecosystem and Species richness study, which is part of a larger body of work in Ecology, is frequently linked to Pseudoomphalina kalchbrenneri and Tricholoma, bridging the gap between disciplines. His Carbon cycle research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Subtropics, Decomposition, Soil carbon, Agroforestry and Nitrogen cycle.

His Botany research includes themes of Nutrient cycle, Organic matter and Plant litter. His Host study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Fungus and Suillus. His study in Decomposer is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Substrate, Vegetation types and Community structure.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The UNITE database for molecular identification of fungi: handling dark taxa and parallel taxonomic classifications. (550 citations)
  • Genome-based estimates of fungal rDNA copy number variation across phylogenetic scales and ecological lifestyles. (63 citations)
  • Fungal functional ecology: bringing a trait-based approach to plant-associated fungi. (35 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Fungus

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Ecology, Guild, Taxon, Ecosystem and Carbon cycle. The concepts of his Guild study are interwoven with issues in Functional ecology and Functional diversity. His Taxon research spans across into areas like Genome size, Research council, Biological classification, Excellence and Molecular identification.

His Ecosystem study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Peat, Soil carbon and Nitrogen cycle. While the research belongs to areas of Carbon cycle, Peter G. Kennedy spends his time largely on the problem of Soil organic matter, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Botany. His research in Botany intersects with topics in Organic matter, Nutrient and Decomposition.
