    Programme de recherche

    Depuis le début ma carrière de scientifique à Montpellier en 1989 mes recherches se placent toujours dans le cadre historique, bio-géographique et paysager particulièrement fascinant de la région Méditerranéenne et se focalisent sur l’écologie, l’évolution et la conservation de la flore.

    Dans cette région les changements historiques et contemporains pourraient avoir des conséquences profondes aussi bien pour la dynamique et la viabilité des populations et des communautés, que pour la capacité de réponse évolutive rapide des espèces, aspect scientifique trop souvent négligé. n élément clé dans mes recherches concerne mon investissement dans une recherche qui s'articule autour de collaborations interdisciplinaires très étroites (sciences humaines) et l'animation d'une interface fonctionnelle entre problématique scientifique et enjeux de conservation.

    Ces recherches s’articulent autour des thèmes suivants :

    • L’application de notre connaissance sur l’évolution de la flore à la conservation conservation du potentiel évolutif.
    • L’ évaluation de l’état de conservation des populations d’espèces rares, endémique où en limite d’aire.
    • La connaissance de la niche fine des espèces en tant que connaissance fondamentale pour la gestion de la flore.
    • L’analyse des interfaces entre connaissances écologique, perceptions culturelles et savoirs-faire locaux (notamment pour la cueillette) dans la conservation de la flore.

    Actuellement je mène des recherches dans le cadre du programme « Transitions écologiques et flore protégée : la gestion conservatoire à l’échelle de la niche (TRANECOL) financé par l’OFB et le CEMEB. Ce programme a pour but d’analyser la variabilité de la niche des espèces végétales protégées en situations de transitions écologiques où le fonctionnement des milieux est particulièrement contrasté en région méditerranéenne: en l’occurence la mosaïque de milieux côtiers où la micro-topographie et la salinité varie de manière très forte sur des espaces très restraints, les gradients d’altitude en arrière pays et sur les écotones entre grands types de substrat. L’objectif ici est d’informer les stratégies et actions des gestionnaires sur l’importance d’identifier la niche écologique des espèces à l’échelle très fine du fonctionnement des individus en milieu hétérogène.

    Notre travail se fait en étroite collaboration avec les gestionnaires dans trois contextes :

    • le territoire du Parc National du Mercantour,
    • la Réserve Naturelle Régionale de Sainte Lucie et d’autres sites sur le territoire du Parc Naturel Régional de la Narbonnaise en Méditerranée,
    • le site Natura 2000 de la Grande Maïre à Portiragnes dont la gestion est attribuée à la Communauté d’Agglomération Hérault Méditerranée et d’autres espaces de près salés sur le pourtour Méditerranéen.

    Plant Evolution in the Mediterranean

    My first book - Plant Evolution in the Mediterranean - was published in 2005. It provided the first synthetic account of the majors processes of evolution in the Mediterranean flora in relation to the history and ecology of the region. It analyzed patterns of species’ distributions and traits in the evolution of the remarkable diversity and degree of endemism that characterize the Mediterranean flora.

    CoverfrontminiEver since 2005 here has been an immense amount of new and fascinating work on the history, ecology, and evolution of the Mediterranean flora. During this time, human impacts have continued to increase dramatically, significantly influencing both the ecology and evolution of the region’s biota.

    My second book, Plant Evolution in the Mediterranean - Insights for conservation, published in 2020 represents a comprehensive update on these issues.

    This is not a traditional book on plant evolution, but rather a novel integration of a diverse and scattered literature to produce a synthetic account of Mediterranean plant evolutionary ecology that maintains the accessible style of the previous version but in a new structural framework. History, ecology, biogeography, and evolution are all set in the context of a dramatically increasing footprint. I argue how an understanding of the evolutionary ecology of the region’s flora can be used to provide insights into its conservation and management.

    Who am I?

    I am an evolutionary biologist, cognitive scientist and naturalist. My main objective is to understand how do evolve complex and extravagant visual signals such as the eyespots of the peacock, the danse of the birds of paradise, and some artworks in humans. My research hypothesis is beauty. Using approaches of empirical psychology, computational neuroscience, artificial intelligence and philosophy of aesthetics, my goal is to identify the biological mechanisms underlying the beauty judgment in order to develop mechanistic models that predict this judgement. I then transfer these models to other animals to understand how beauty influences behaviors and, ultimately, the evolution of communication signals in nature.

    I am also working on methods to characterize visual phenotypes, with applications in community ecology, evolutionary biology and systematics. I am particularly interested in how to use artificial intellgience to describe visual phenotypes and to model animal vision.

    I am also conducting or participating to several research projects in ornithology and ichthyology (fish, and in particular gobies, of the Northeastern Atlantic and the Mediterranean region).

    I’m a PhD student interested in animal behaviour and cognition, and how they translate into the spatial and demographic dynamics of populations. During my PhD, I focus on the interplay between individual movements and the dynamics of population networks through two case studies: 1) migratory connectivity and its relationship with the demography of migratory populations; 2) informed dispersal and its implications for the structuring and the stability of larid colonies. Linking individual and population-level processes leads me to draw on methods from both behavioural ecology and population biology.

    Mon objectif est de comprendre le rôle et l’importance des odeurs et des médiateurs chimiques dans le fonctionnement et l’évolution des relations plantes-insectes. Je m’intéresse particulièrement aux aspects suivants : quelles sont les caractéristiques des odeurs et des signaux chimiques disponibles pour les insectes ? Quelle est l’activité biologique de ces molécules (réponse comportementale des insectes) ? Dans quelle mesure et à quel(s) niveau(x) ces interactions chimiques jouent un rôle dans le fonctionnement et l’évolution des systèmes plantes-insectes ?

    Supervisors: Claire Doutrelant (CEFE - CNRS, Montpellier) & Arnaud Grégoire (CEFE - University of Montpellier).
    Project in collaboration with David López Idiáquez.

    Thesis project: Climatic, anthropic and intrinsic determinants of ornaments expression and their association to fitness.

     

    Urbanisation and climate change are two major factors driving ongoign environmental changes in wirld populations worldwide. Research has revealed plastic and genetic responses to these anthropogenic changes. A shift in environmental conditions are expected to impose novel slective forces that can shape phenotypic variation of populations living in urban environments. Ornaments such as conspicuous colourations play a crucial role shaping interactions between individuals in inter and intra-sexual contexts. Ornamentals surch as feathers, with carotenoid-based (yellow to red), structural (blue) and melanic colours, are expected to be associated with variation in environmental conditions. Phenotypic divergences are known in urban environments, however understanding the underlying mechanisms driving colour variation are not investigated.

    This projects uses a long time dataset from the following of four blue tits populations, three in Corsica and one near Montpellier, and two great tits populations from the city of Montpellier and a nearby forest. Overall it covers 10 to nearly 20 years of colouration data. This dataset results from the work of numerous researchers and students from the CEFE TIT PROJECT.

    This thesis aims to:

    • Unravel the effects of urbanisation and climate change on carotenoid colouration in the great tits, and investigate whether phenotypic divergence has a temporal pattern.
    • Understand which urban characteristic is causing changes in bird colouration using
      1/ common garden experiments to see whether there is plastic or genetic changes.
      2/ metabarcoding data to see what urban and forest birds are eating while they renew their feathers.
    • Investigate selection by survival on coloured ornaments for both blue and great tits and compare it between environments.

    Intéressée par les dynamiques de populations d’arthropodes en agroécosystèmes, j’étudie (1) les effets de l’interférence entre activités agricoles et deux grandes forces évolutives sur les arthropodes - la migration et la sélection naturelle –, (2) les interactions biotiques impliquant des arthropodes bioagresseurs et auxiliaires potentiels. Je dirige ces travaux suivant une approche transdisciplinaire à l'interface entre recherche fondamentale et recherche opérationnelle.

     I am interested in the dynamics of arthropod populations in agroecosystems and am studying (1) the effects of interference between farming activities and two major evolutionary forces on arthropods - migration and natural selection - and (2) biotic interactions involving arthropod pests and potential beneficials. I lead this work following a transdisciplinary approach at the interface between fundamental and operational research.

  • PhD STUDENT
    Behavioural EcologyA selfie of Lucie sat in the woods, smiling, next to her dog

    My PhD project, which began in December 2024, is in the field of behavioral ecology. More specifically, I am studying the impact of personality on the reproductive behavior of Corsican blue tits Cyanistes caeruleus ogliastrae in the face of biotic (predation, parasitism) and abiotic (climate change) constraints.

    Aside from my thesis, my main research topics of interest include reproductive behaviour, in particular sexual selection, host-parasite interactions, and the links between anthropogenic factors and behaviour. I have a preference for birds as a study model, but have also worked on fish and mammals.

    I am also a member of the Comité pour l'Equité.

    PhD title: Links between personality and reproductive strategy in a context of biotic (predation, parasitism) and abiotic (climate) environmental variability

    Someone holding a blue tit in their hand

    In a context of rapid global warming and increasingly frequent extreme weather events, numerous studies have shown the impact of these changes on the life-history traits of wild organisms, in particular the advancement of reproduction phenology for plants and animals. In the case of birds, we know that many populations respond to global warming by adjusting individual egg-laying dates. However, much less is known about the functional reasons for individual differences in this plasticity, and very little about the implications of inter-individual behavioural (personalities) or demographic (e.g.  longevity) differences in the phenotypic plasticity of reproductive decisions.

    In this thesis:

    • We will exploit a database resulting from long-term monitoring of blue tits (Cyanistes caeruleus) initiated in 1976 and now providing 47 years of data on bird reproduction, and 13 years of behavioural data (docility, exploration score) on breeding birds in four populations occupying white oak and holm oak forests.
    • We will test whether the differences in bird personalities  (proactive/reactive, i.e. highly or less aggressive and fast or meticulous explorers) between populations and individuals, are linked to the plasticity of life-history traits in the face of global warming. In particular, we predict that because of their different reactivity to environmental signals, proactive individuals will be less plastic than reactive individuals in their reproductive decisions.
    • We will also study the effects of environmental pressures (climate, predation, parasitism) and personality on the pairing of individuals approximated by homogamy and the propensity to divorce. In particular, we will use repeated observation data collected over several decades to test the hypothesis that proactive individuals are more likely to change partners over the breeding seasons, particularly following failure events such as the predation of their brood or an extreme
      climatic event.

    The overall aim of this project is to integrate animal personalities in the study of phenotypic plasticity in the face of environmental constraints, in the context of a study of wild birds initiated almost half a century ago.

    Mes recherches portent sur les interactions interspécifiques, plus particulièrement entre plantes et insectes. Mes projets de recherche s´intègrent dans le domaine de l´écologie chimique. En favorisant une approche interdisciplinaire combinant la chimie analytique, l’écologie comportementale, la physiologie sensorielle et la biologie évolutive, j’ai étudié le rôle de la médiation chimique, particulièrement via les composés organiques volatils (COVs), dans le fonctionnement d’interactions de différents types : pollinisation, herbivorie, parasitisme et reconnaissance entre partenaires sexuels. Je travaille aussi bien dans des écosystèmes méditerranéens que tropicaux.

    Thématiques français

    Je consacre une partie de mes activités de recherche à la caractérisation des mécanismes évolutifs impliqués dans la nature des messagers chimiques ainsi que la détection de ces composés dans les interactions plantes-pollinisateurs. L’autre axe de mes recherches porte sur l ́impact des changements environnementaux globaux, principalement climatiques et de concentrations en polluants atmosphériques, sur la communication chimique plantes-pollinisateurs. Ces deux axes de recherches sont abordés de manière originale et intégrative car je m’intéresse aussi bien aux pressions de sélections qu’aux sources de variations proximales qui peuvent affecter l’émission des COVs, leur stabilité dans l’atmosphère que leur détection par les pollinisateurs. Une originalité forte de mon approche est que je cherche à connecter différentes disciplines afin d’étudier conjointement les deux fonctions principales des COVs émis par les plantes : défenses contre des stress (abiotiques et biotiques) et reproduction.

     

    Anglais

    I dedicate part of my research activities to characterizing the evolutionary mechanisms involved in the nature of chemical messengers and the detection of these compounds in plant-pollinator interactions. The other part of my research focuses on the impact of global environmental changes, mainly climatic and atmospheric pollutant concentration changes, on plant-pollinator chemical communication. These two areas of research are approached in an original and integrative way, as I am interested in both selection pressures and sources of proximal variations that can affect the emission of VOCs, their stability in the atmosphere and their detection by pollinators. A strong originality of my approach is that I attempt to connect different disciplines in order to jointly study the two main functions of VOCs emitted by plants: defense against stresses (abiotic and biotic), and reproduction.

     

    Projects since 2019

    POLLURISK project, MUSE (Montpellier University of Excellence): Impact of ozone POLLUtion, in the context of climate change, on plant-pollinator chemical communication: RISQue pour la résilience des services écosystémiques (2018-2022, 150 k€, PI).

    ExpOz project, ANSES: Determination of ozone exposure threshold values for the resilience of plant-insect chemical communication (2019-2022, 200 k€, PI).

    Partners: IMBE; LCE; LBVpam; FLP-UAE (Morocco).

    The aim of these two projects was to characterize the effect of ozone pollution (O3) on chemical communication in two types of plant-pollinator interactions: the highly specialized and obligatory interaction between the cultivated fig tree and its pollinating wasp, and the generalist interaction between lavender and the honey bee. At the end of this project, we will define tolerance thresholds for the resilience of these two interactions to a major pollutant.

    IRP Chine MOST project, CNRS-INEE: "Figs and fig-wasps: a model system to investigate biotic interaction network responses to global change" (2018-2022 then 2025-2029, 100 k€, PI). Partners: XTBG ; SCBG.

    The aim of the IRP was to generate basic knowledge on the impact of increasing levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) and O3on the stability of interaction networks and, more specifically, on the ecosystem services of pollination. For this, we used a model system, the specific mutualism between Ficus and fig insects. We studied how insects' attraction to the VOCs produced by their specific host plant was affected by high concentrations of O3and CO2through comparative studies conducted between three regions with high and variable tropospheric O3 concentrations, southern France, southern Yunnan and Guangdong.

    Chime2 project, PRIME 80 CNRS-INEE-IC: Biochemical constraints and ecological selection pressures in the evolution of volatile organic compounds responsible for pollinator attraction (2019-2022, 150 k€, PI) Partners: XTBG; LBVpam ; ICN.

    The main objective of this project was to understand the evolutionary dynamics of floral VOC emission. Using fig trees, the aim was to understand the involvement of biochemical constraints, linked to volatile biosynthesis pathways, as well as ecological selection pressures in the establishment of VOCs responsible for attracting specialized pollinators. This approach will enable more general conclusions to be drawn on the mechanisms of co-evolution and co-adaptation at the level of chemical communication in plant-pollinator mutualistic interactions.

    ASPI project, ANSES: Wild bees in the city: effects of urban pollutants on insect health and plant-pollinator interactions (2020-2024, 200 k€, WP manager). Partners: EEP; University of Mons (Belgium).

    Thisproject aims to understand the effects of exposure of wild pollinators to urban pollutants (PAHs and phthalates), by combining several approaches. This will involve: (Axis 1) determining the nature and levels of contamination of wild bees living in cities (Axis 2) exploring the effects of living in low vs. highly polluted sites on pollinator health, the attractiveness of floral resources and the quality of pollen produced (Axis 3) characterizing the individual and colonial effects of exposure under controlled conditions to realistic mixtures of families of these contaminants.

    COMIX project, French Embassy in China: Comparative study of the effect of O3 concentration on the behavior of different species of fig tree pollinators (2019-2020, 13 k€, PI). Partners: XTBG; SCBG (China).

    The aim of the project was to compare the sensitivity of different species of fig pollinators to different concentrations of O3.

    PolluCom project, ANR: "Effects of ozone pollution on plant-pollinator chemical communication under global warming, consequences for their interactions" (2023-2026, 702 k€, PI) Partners: LBVpam; IEES and Ecotron de Montpellier.

    The aim of this project is to test the individual and combined effects of the two stress factors, O3and temperature, on two pollination systems with different levels of specialization and with a focus on studying the mechanisms of action of O3, using a broadly interdisciplinary approach. Both environmental stressors are expected to have an impact on plant and pollinator physiology, affecting, respectively, the emission of VOCs and their perception. These effects would emerge in particular from changes in the expression of genes involved in VOC biosynthesis and olfaction. We predict that these changes will disrupt plant-pollinator chemical communication and thus their interaction, with the generalist pollination system being more resilient than the specialist.

    BeeMed project, ANSES: Resilience of bees to global changes through the prism of self-medication (2023-2025, 200 k€, P). Partners: ECOBIO; IMBE.

    This project aims to define the capacity of different wild bee species to adapt to air pollution and climate change. More specifically, we will test the nutritional and self-medication resilience of bees by considering the spatiotemporal heterogeneity of environmental stressors and characterizing antioxidant resources within flowering plant pollen.

    IRP Thailand SPECIFLY, CNRS-INEE project: "Characterization little-known of biodiversity: Ecology and evolution of specialized pollination by flies" (2023-2027, 10k€/year P). Partner: Chulalongkorn University.

    This project aims to compare pollinator attraction strategies in two phylogenetically distant plant genera,Ceropegia (Thailand) andAristolochia (France), some of whose species have converged on the same deceptive pollination strategy. In addition to establishing a solid collaboration with the Thai team, this project opens up new prospects for understanding the factors governing the evolution of floral specialization.

    Air pollution project, CAS: "Effects of air pollution on chemical communication between species - a case study of figs and fig wasps".  (2023-2026, 400 k€/ WP manager).  Partner: SCBG.

    The aim of the project is to provide basic knowledge on the impact of air pollution on the stability of the interaction network between insects and plants. To this end, the effects of major pollutants (O3, NOX) on fig odor and the response of fig wasps to this variation in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Bay regionwill be investigated.

    IRN China project, Virtual Institute on Biodiversity, CAS-CNRS (2024-2028, 15k€/year PI). Partners:  researchers from 25 different units.

    The virtual institute comprises a steering committee and around 15 pairs of principal investigators from CAS and CNRS institutes. The main objective of this IRN is to strengthen and develop Franco-Chinese collaboration on various aspects of biodiversity research through a network of scientists from both countries, and to set up an educational program for young scientists.

    Blastosome project, Exposome-CNRS: A novel component of the fig exposome: its pollinator, the blastophage (2025-2026, 25k€ PI). Partners CRBM Montpellier (CNRS-INSB).

    Our project is to study the disruptive effect of ozone pollution and rising temperatures on fig tree-blastophaga-Wolbachia-nematode interactions. We will draw on the complementary skills of a CNRS Biology team specializing in Wolbachia, nematodes and insect reproduction, and a CNRS Ecology & Environment team specializing in the chemical ecology and evolutionary biology of the Ficus-pollinator system.

    I am an evolutionary and behavioural ecologist broadly interested in understanding the causes and consequences of phenotypic variation in behaviour, life-history and physiology across different hierarchical levels of organization. In my current postdoc with Anne Charmantier and Sandra Bouwhuis I focus on the evolutionary genetics of phenotypic plasticityusing a long-term data set of common terns (Sterna hirundo) from the North Coast of Germany.

    I study how variation in signal production and perception influences (i) the evolution of signals in multiple sensory modalities (acoustic, visual and chemical domains) and (ii) the adaptation (through phenotypic plasticity and/or genetic variability) to different environments, a topic for which there is nowadays a growing interest in the new field of sensory ecology, notably to understand how species cope with their rapidly changing environment due to anthropogenic activities.

    I study the evolution of adaptive diversity, using colour patterns in butterflies as a model. In my group, we integrate many different approaches, including ecology, genetics, and modelling, to try and untangle how multiple factors influence the evolution and maintenance of diversity and polymorphisms.

    HDR : Impact des changements globaux sur la biodiversité et le fonctionnement des écosystèmes forestiers - soutenue le 11/2/2021
    Lien : HDR Xavier Morin

     

    Thèmes de recherche

    (English follows)

    Mes travaux cherchent à parvenir à une meilleure compréhension du déterminisme de la diversité végétale aux différentes échelles spatiales et temporelles, sa réponse aux changements futurs, et son rôle dans le fonctionnement des écosystèmes forestiers. En particulier, je cherche donc à comprendre et prédire comment la biodiversité des écosystèmes forestiers s’organise selon différentes échelles spatiales, comment elle sera modifiée par les changements globaux, et quelles en seront les conséquences sur le fonctionnement de ces écosystèmes. Pour ce faire j’essaie de développer une approche intégratrice basée sur les processus. Mes travaux se focalisent principalement sur les espèces d'arbres et arbustes. Pour mener à bien ces objectifs, j’utilise aussi bien des résultats issus d’expérimentation, d’observations le long de gradients écologiques in situ, et de modélisation.
