Research questions

How do different facets of biodiversity affect the functioning and stability of (agro)ecosystems?

What are the roles of plant-plant interactions and functional traits in determining (agro)ecosystem functioning?

What are the drivers of the global distribution of crop species diversity ?

Can plant functional traits predict the multifunctionality of (agro)ecosystems ?

To address these questions, I assemble concepts, theories and tools from functional ecology, biogeography, agronomy and quantitative ecology. I mainly focus on cultivated ecosystems and their associated plant communities, including crop and weed species. My researches cover a range of spatio-temporal scales, from very local (e.g. plant-plant interactions) to global (e.g. global distribution of crop) and pluriannual (e.g. long-term ecosystem stability) scales.

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.

Thématique de recherche

Je développe un travail d’écologie évolutive qui vise à analyser les traits d'histoire de vie chez les plantes (systèmes de reproduction, traits floraux, dispersion). L’accent est mis l'accent sur l'importance de la dynamique écologique (dynamique des métapopulations, démographie) comme un processus de sélection dans l'évolution contemporaine. Mon approche combine (1) Analyse des patrons d’adaptation et méthodes d’inférence des traits d’histoires de vie dans les métapopulations de plantes, en milieu naturel (2) élaboration de modèles formels en écologie évolutive (3) expérimentations et tests d’hypothèses en conditions contrôlées.

I am interested in how changes in biodiversity and environmental conditions (atmospheric carbon dioxide, temperature, precipitation) affect plant-soil interactions, with a particular focus on plant litter and decomposer organisms. The main research goal is a mechanistic understanding of the drivers of biogeochemical cycles using experimental approaches in the field (alpine, temperate, Mediterranean and tropical forest ecosystems) and the laboratory.

My principal area of research is Evolutionary genetics and evolutionary ecology. I have a broad expertise in evolutionary biology, genetics and ecology.

I have been working on adaptation and mutation, local adaptation, evolution of genetic systems (sex, recombination, sex chromosomes), evolution of gene duplicates, speciation, genetic conflicts, dispersal, biotic interactions (parasites, microbiota), statistics and fitness measures. I have been working with many empirical systems (vertebrates, insects, crustaceans, fungi, plants, helminths, bacteria), in the lab and in the field.

Currently, my scientific activity rests on three axes: first I do theoretical work (theoretical population genetics, statistics, and bioinformatics development). I am particularly interested currently on the evolution of gene expression (on sex chromosomes or in asexuals). Second, I work on small crustaceans Artemia and Daphnia. I’m particularly interested currently on sex-asex transitions, biotic interactions and adaptation to temperature. Third, I do experimental evolution on E. coli. I'm particularly interested on testing fitness landscape models, adaptation to different doses of antibiotics, and coevolution of species coexisting by frequency dependence.

Research interests by keywords
adaptation, local adaptation, migration, speciation, (sex) chromosomes, clines, sex, parthenogenesis, meiosis, recombination, epistasis, dominance, mutations, resistance, duplications, modifiers, mating systems, sexual conflicts, parasites, microbiota.
