Applied Fungi
Science Newsroom

Ranks authors by distinct articles already passing this newsroom’s rolling six-month source and relevance screen. A paper counts only when its abstract contains at least one fungal term and at least one applied-context term. Each coauthor receives one count per DOI.

Keyword examples — fungal: fungus/fungi/fungal, mycete/mycota forms, mycelium, mushroom, mycorrhiza, endophyte, yeast, mould/mold, and lichen. Applied: mycoprotein, fermentation/bioconversion, enzymes, bioremediation, biocontrol, biofertilizers, mycelium biomaterials, food/health, plant/host, soil, ecology, and restoration. ORCID is used when Crossref supplies it; otherwise names are normalized, so same-name authors may be conflated. Missing Crossref abstracts or author metadata are omitted. Counts are not lifetime totals or measures of paper quality.
