Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Mary C. Savin's research focuses on soil microbiology, with an emphasis on the impact of agricultural management practices on microbial communities and the prevalence of antibiotic resistance genes. Her work investigates how factors such as land use, topography, and the application of animal manures influence the structure and function of soil ecosystems.
Savin has published research examining bacterial diversity in silvopastoral systems and variations in microbial communities and antimicrobial resistance genes in cattle manure and poultry litter. Her studies also explore the persistence of herbicides in soil and the resistance of weeds to these chemicals. She has investigated the leaching of antibiotic resistance genes and microbial assemblages in different landscape types following poultry litter application and the long-term effects of conservation pasture management on microbiomes and antibiotic resistance genes. Savin also studies the cardinal temperatures for cover crop species and the fungal microbiota associated with grape cultivation.
She leads a research group and has a collaborative network with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Matthew B. Bertucci, Nilda R. Burgos, Cammy Willett, and P. Moore. Savin's scholarly contributions are recognized by her h-index of 28 and over 2,200 citations.
