About Peter Kennedy

Peter Kennedy, With an exceptional h-index of 49 and a recent h-index of 36 (since 2020), a distinguished researcher at University of Minnesota-Twin Cities, specializes in the field of mycorrhizal fungi, plant-microbe interactions, community ecology, ecosystem C and N cycling.

His recent articles reflect a diverse array of research interests and contributions to the field:

A cryptically diverse microbial community drives organic matter decomposition in forests

Primer pairs, PCR conditions, and peptide nucleic acid clamps affect fungal diversity assessment from plant root tissues

Seasonality regulates the structure and biogeochemical impact of ectomycorrhizal fungal communities across environmentally divergent neotropical dry forests

Genomic determination of breeding systems and trans-specific evolution of HD MAT genes in suilloid fungi

Herbarium specimens reveal that mycorrhizal type does not mediate declining temperate tree nitrogen status over a century of environmental change

Changing balance between dormancy and mortality determines the trajectory of ectomycorrhizal fungal spore longevity over a 15-yr burial experiment

Defining a core microbial necrobiome associated with decomposing fungal necromass

Microbial community attributes supersede plant and soil parameters in predicting fungal necromass decomposition rates in a 12-tree species common garden experiment
