About Roger
Roger T. Koide is a Professor in the Department of Biology at Brigham Young University since 2012, contributing to Agricultural and Veterinary Science through his research on plant-microbe symbioses and sustainable agriculture. He earned a B.A. in Zoology (magna cum laude) from Pomona College in 1980 and a Ph.D. in Botany from the University of California, Berkeley in 1984. Prior to BYU, Koide served as Professor in the Department of Horticulture at Penn State University from 1996 to 2012, Associate Professor there from 1992 to 1996, and Assistant Professor in the Department of Biology at Penn State from 1986 to 1992. He held a postdoctoral position at Stanford University from 1984 to 1986. His research interests include mycorrhizal fungi, nutrient ecology, soil carbon sequestration, biodiversity, ectomycorrhizal and arbuscular mycorrhizal communities, plant reproduction, endophytic fungi, biochar effects, and climate change impacts on ecosystems.
Koide has received major awards such as the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science Fellowship in 2018, Fulbright Senior Scholar Award in Australia from 1992 to 1993, and NSF Presidential Young Investigator Award from 1987 to 1992. His influential publications include 'A meta-analysis of context-dependency in plant response to inoculation with mycorrhizal fungi' (2010, Ecology Letters), 'Effects of soil resources on plant invasion and community structure in Californian serpentine grassland' (1990, Ecology), 'Nutrient supply, nutrient demand and plant response to mycorrhizal infection' (1991, New Phytologist), 'A history of research on arbuscular mycorrhiza' (2004, Mycorrhiza), and 'Vertical niche differentiation of ectomycorrhizal hyphae in soil as shown by T-RFLP analysis' (2002, New Phytologist). These works have significantly advanced understanding of mycorrhizal symbioses and plant nutrient foraging strategies, with over 20,000 citations on Google Scholar. Koide's contributions extend to early studies on vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal effects on plant growth and reproduction.
