Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Genus

Thomas Jung mainly focuses on Phytophthora, Botany, Phytophthora plurivora, Phytophthora citricola and Ecology. The study of Phytophthora is intertwined with the study of Phytophthora alni in a number of ways. His work on Botany deals in particular with Fagaceae, Taxonomy, Banksia attenuata, Eucalyptus and Banksia.

His Phytophthora plurivora study combines topics in areas such as Beech, Fagus sylvatica and Alnus glutinosa. Thomas Jung has researched Phytophthora citricola in several fields, including Eucalyptus gomphocephala, Agonis flexuosa, Phytophthora cambivora and Quercus robur. His Quercus robur research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Phytophthora drechsleri, Phytophthora cactorum, Pythium and Root rot.

His most cited work include:

  • Biogeographical patterns and determinants of invasion by forest pathogens in Europe (298 citations)
  • Involvement of soilborne Phytophthora species in Central European oak decline and the effect of site factors on the disease (237 citations)
  • Isolation, identification and pathogenicity of Phytophthora species from declining oak stands (232 citations)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Phytophthora, Botany, Ecology, Phytophthora cinnamomi and Phytophthora plurivora. His Phytophthora research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Taxon and Beech. His Botany study often links to related topics such as Phytophthora citricola.

His research in Ecology focuses on subjects like Agronomy, which are connected to Alder. Thomas Jung interconnects Biodiversity, Chlamydospore, Inoculation and Oospore in the investigation of issues within Phytophthora cinnamomi. The Phytophthora plurivora study combines topics in areas such as Alnus glutinosa, Fagaceae, Root rot and Quercus robur.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Phytophthora (80.00%)
  • Botany (62.73%)
  • Ecology (30.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Phytophthora (80.00%)
  • Ecology (30.00%)
  • Phytophthora cinnamomi (18.18%)

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

Phytophthora, Ecology, Phytophthora cinnamomi, Horticulture and Invasive species are his primary areas of study. His Phytophthora research is included under the broader classification of Botany. His research in the fields of Prunus laurocerasus and Fraxinus overlaps with other disciplines such as Montenegro, Diaporthe eres and Fusarium sambucinum.

When carried out as part of a general Ecology research project, his work on Erysiphe alphitoides is frequently linked to work in Spatial distribution, Distribution and Species complex, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His studies deal with areas such as Rainforest, Biodiversity and Drimys winteri as well as Phytophthora cinnamomi. In his work, Fagus sylvatica, Beech and Phytophthora cambivora is strongly intertwined with Bark, which is a subfield of Horticulture.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Canker and decline diseases caused by soil- and airborne Phytophthora species in forests and woodlands. (53 citations)
  • A Survey in Natural Forest Ecosystems of Vietnam Reveals High Diversity of both New and Described Phytophthora Taxa including P. ramorum (16 citations)
  • From leaf to continent: The multi-scale distribution of an invasive cryptic pathogen complex on oak (14 citations)

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

  • Botany
  • Ecology
  • Genus

Thomas Jung focuses on Invasive species, Botany, Phytophthora, Spatial distribution and Erysiphe alphitoides. His Invasive species research incorporates Consistency, Business, Variation, Political action and Cross country. His research is interdisciplinary, bridging the disciplines of Oomycete and Botany.

In general Phytophthora study, his work on Phytophthora cinnamomi often relates to the realm of Clade, thereby connecting several areas of interest. Spatial distribution combines with fields such as Erysiphe, Distribution, Species complex, Niche differentiation and Scale in his investigation. His research on Erysiphe alphitoides is centered around Powdery mildew and Ecology.
