Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Fungus
  • Bacteria

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Botany, Biochemistry, Plant litter and Laccase. Ecosystem, Soil organic matter, Soil microbiology, Soil water and Carbon cycle are the primary areas of interest in his Ecology study. His studies deal with areas such as Rhizosphere and Mycelium as well as Ecosystem.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Microbial population biology, Polysaccharide, Soil pH, Topsoil and Soil horizon in addition to Botany. Petr Baldrian has researched Plant litter in several fields, including Temperate climate, Temperate rainforest, Decomposer and Litter. Petr Baldrian interconnects Xenobiotic, Chromatography and Lignin in the investigation of issues within Laccase.

His most cited work include:

  • Fungal laccases - occurrence and properties. (1549 citations)
  • The Variability of the 16S rRNA Gene in Bacterial Genomes and Its Consequences for Bacterial Community Analyses (586 citations)
  • Degradation of cellulose by basidiomycetous fungi. (566 citations)

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

Petr Baldrian mainly focuses on Botany, Ecology, Ecosystem, Laccase and Litter. The Botany study combines topics in areas such as Acidobacteria, Cellulose, Decomposer and Soil microbiology. His research investigates the connection between Ecology and topics such as Microbial population biology that intersect with problems in Soil organic matter and Bioremediation.

His research investigates the link between Ecosystem and topics such as Species richness that cross with problems in Microbiome. His study in Laccase is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Enzyme assay, Food science and Pleurotus ostreatus. His research in Litter intersects with topics in Abundance, Quercus petraea, Topsoil and Plant litter.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Botany (32.22%)
  • Ecology (30.13%)
  • Ecosystem (15.90%)

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

  • Ecosystem (15.90%)
  • Ecology (30.13%)
  • Botany (32.22%)

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

Petr Baldrian mostly deals with Ecosystem, Ecology, Botany, Species richness and DNA sequencing. His Ecosystem research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Soil organic matter, Microbial ecology, Habitat and Biogeography. His Soil organic matter research incorporates elements of Agroforestry, Thinning and Microbial population biology.

Ecology is closely attributed to Microorganism in his research. His Botany research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Biomass, Organic matter, Rhizosphere and Litter. His Litter research integrates issues from Cellulose and Microbial DNA.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Mycobiome diversity: high-throughput sequencing and identification of fungi. (193 citations)
  • A meta-analysis of global fungal distribution reveals climate-driven patterns (46 citations)
  • Insights from enzymatic degradation of cellulose and hemicellulose to fermentable sugars– a review (29 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Fungus
  • Bacteria

Petr Baldrian mainly investigates Ecosystem, Ecology, Metagenomics, Microbial ecology and Taxon. His work carried out in the field of Ecosystem brings together such families of science as Soil science, Soil water, Agronomy and Biogeography. His Agronomy research incorporates themes from Litter, Picea abies, Ecological succession and Basidiomycota.

His Ecology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Sporocarp and Boletus edulis. His Metagenomics research includes elements of Sequence analysis and Bacterial genome size. His Taxon study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Biodiversity, Biological dispersal, Decomposer and Habitat.
