Overview

Sven Buerki is affiliated with Boise State University in the United States. Their research primarily focuses on the fields of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology, and Environmental Science. Within these broad fields, their work covers several subfields including Ecology, Evolution, Behavior and Systematics, Molecular Biology, Plant Science, Global and Planetary Change, and Nature and Landscape Conservation.

The scientist's research topics include Plant and Fungal Species Descriptions, Plant and Animal Studies, Plant Diversity and Evolution, Ecology and Vegetation Dynamics Studies, Rangeland and Wildlife Management, Pacific and Southeast Asian Studies, and Plant Water Relations and Carbon Dynamics.

Among their recent publications are several papers in recognized scientific venues:

  • "Phylogenomics and the rise of the angiosperms" (2024), published in Nature
  • "New Guinea has the world's richest island flora" (2020), published in Nature
  • "Phylogenetics and comparative plastome genomics of two of the largest genera of angiosperms, Piper and Peperomia (Piperaceae)" (2021), published in Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution
  • "An updated infra-familial classification of Sapindaceae based on targeted enrichment data" (2021), published in American Journal of Botany
  • "Phylogenomic analyses of Sapindales support new family relationships, rapid Mid-Cretaceous Hothouse diversification, and heterogeneous histories of gene duplication" (2023), published in Frontiers in Plant Science

The scientist frequently publishes in journals such as American Journal of Botany, Taxon, Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research), Plants, and Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution. They have contributed most notably with six publications in the American Journal of Botany and several others distributed among these noted venues.

Collaborative work is also a significant component of their research output. Sven Buerki has worked extensively with several coauthors, including Martin W. Callmander (18 joint publications), Marcelo D. Serpe (13 joint publications), Félix Forest (10 joint publications), Stephen J. Novak (10 joint publications), and Anthony E. Melton (8 joint publications).
