A l’interface entre écologie fonctionnelle et écologie des communautés, je cherche à comprendre les causes de variation de la biodiversité, aussi bien à l’échelle locale que continentale, et l’effet de changements de la biodiversité sur la dynamique et le fonctionnement des écosystèmes.

Professeure Institut Agro Montpellier

Principaux thèmes de recherche:

Mes travaux se situent à l'interface entre le fonctionnement des espèces et ceui des écosystèmes.  Plus précisement, je m'intéresse à la recherche des compromis auxquels font face les végétaux durant leur croissance et les conséquences de ces compromis pendant et après la sénescence des plantes.

Les principaux objectifs de mon travail sont :
•    Caractériser la réponse des composantes de performance des espèces (croissance, reproduction) et des stratégies écologiques des espèces aux gradients de facteurs du milieu (abandon, intensification cultural, pâturage, fertilisation, pollution de sol par les métaux lourds, gradient d'intensité de gestion des cultures pérennes tels que les vignes ou les oliveraies).
•    Les relations entre les traits fonctionnels et le fonctionnement des écosystèmes (décomposabilité des litières, digestibilité de biomasse) mais aussi avec la pollinisation et les régulations biotiques.
•    Caractériser les réponses des communautés des adventices (richesse spécifique, abondance, diversité fonctionnelle) aux différents systèmes de culture innovants. Notre modèled’étude est l’enherbement permanent des vignes.

Dans ce contexte, les principales questions abordées se répartissent sur les 3 axes suivants :

-Quelles sont les stratégies adaptatives des espèces qui décrivent le fonctionnement des végétaux le long des gradients de perturbation et de niveaux de ressources ?
-Quelles sont les conséquences des pratiques de gestions sur la structure fonctionnelle des communautés à différentes échelles spatiote-mporelles ?

-Quels sont liens entre diversité fonctionnelle communautés végétales-pollinisateurs-herbivores et organismes du sol ?

Research interests: 

My research is focused on the analysis of the ecological consequences on the variability of species functioning via the use of plant functional traits.

More precisely the main objectives of my research are:

-Characterize species responses (growth, performance) and species ecological strategies across environmental gradients (cultural abandon cultural intensification, grazing, fertilization, concentration on heavy metals on soil)

-Description of the links between species functional traits and ecosystem functioning (litter decomposition, biomass digestibility) in a context of land use change. Especially, I am interested to determine the links between species traits and their palatability and digestibility.

-Identify the above-belowground linkages in response to herbivory: test the after-life hypothesis in different contexts and with different herbivores (mammals, mollusks, insects). Identify is the same traits protecting leaves against herbivory are affecting their rate of decomposition.

-Characterize communities responses to different innovate agricultural systems and especially in vineyards.

Research interests

Soil scientist fascinated by plant ecophysiology, my research focusses on soil-plant interactions in both natural and controlled conditions. I am particularly interested in silicon (Si), a major component of the Earth’s crust and soils, that is increasingly considered as a key element in plant ecology and agriculture through the fantastic process of biosilicification (mineral deposits in plant organs as seen on the left).

Research thematic

I combine expertise in soil science and plant ecophysiology to work on three different research axes:

• The influence of soil properties, and in particular their evolution over time through the use of long-term chronosequences, on silicon cycling (e.g., soil Si pools and fluxes, Si availability for plants, Si uptake by plants and silicification, biological versus lithological control on Si cycling)
• The control of overlooked biotic factors on soil-plant Si mobility (e.g., soil microorganisms, large herbivores, root exudates), and how they could be leveraged to increase crop Si status through specific agricultural practices.
• Developing functional trait-based approaches to better understand the role and functions of Si and silicification in plant ecophysiology, and how it aligns with major ecological theories (plant growth/defense tradeoff, plant economics spectrum, resource availability hypothesis, etc.).

Mes travaux portent sur la compréhension de la régulation du fonctionnement des écosystèmes terrestres en terme de flux de matière (eau, carbone, nutriments…). Initialement centrées sur les écosystèmes méditerranéens, mes activités ont été élargies à d’autres écosystèmes subissant de très fortes contraintes (les hauts plateaux andins). 

My research focuses on the understanding of terrestrial ecosystems functioning in terms of fluxes (water, carbon, nutrients...). Initially centered on Mediterranean ecosystems, my research activities have been extended to the Andean highlands).

J'étudie les mécanismes de la répartition spatiale des grands herbivores, des grands carnivores et des oiseaux marins dans le but d'approfondir nos connaissances sur les interactions prédateur-proies (jeu spatial prédateur-proie, stratégie d'alimentation, stratégie de recherche des prédateurs, stratégie anti-prédatrice des proies) et d'améliorer les mesures de gestion et de conservation de la faune.

Current Research

I work to reveal how animals perceive and adjust to their environment, and why this matters for populations and ecosystems. My model of choice: large herbivores. Because you can (relatively) easily monitor their behaviour in natura, and they have important ecosystem effects. Some have high societal and economical values, so my research sometimes matter beyond basic science. We (as humans) are making the world's climate different. How this affects organisms in the hottest applied ecological question. I do my share to bring an answer to it

Personal interests

As an ecophysiologist, my research is focused on the adaptive strategies of plants under drought (Volaire, 2018, Global Change Biology). I have particularly analysed the adaptive strategies to cope with severe water deficit, such as summer dormancy (Volaire & Norton, 2006, Annals of Botany). I also investigate the  dehydration tolerance and embolism resistance of perennial herbaceous plants under severe summer droughts as occurring in Mediterranean and semi-arid areas.  We proposed a critical view of the so called 'functional' traits that are increasingly challenged as unsuitable to fully understand plant and communities functioning (Volaire et al., 2021 Ecology and Evolution). As a consequence, I highlight the importance of seasonal phenological adaptations across species and types to survive dehydration stress (drought, frost), based on the important framework in ecology, the 'growth-stress survival' tradeoff' (Volaire et al., 2022 Annals of Botany). I am developing collaborative research projects with geneticists and ecologists to understand plant traits and strategies associated with drought survival with application to plant breeding in forage species for better adaptation to increasing aridity under climate change.

Intérêts personnels
Mes travaux portent sur les stratégies adaptatives des plantes à la sécheresse. Je travaille notamment sur les espèces herbacées pérennes sous sécheresses estivales sévères de type méditerranéen. Je couple des approches en écophysiologie, agronomie et écologie fonctionnelle. L’objectif principal est d’analyser le fonctionnement des espèces et communautés herbacées sous contrainte hydrique forte dans le cadre du changement climatique. Un cadre conceptuel et terminologique unifié des stratégies adaptatives des plantes à la sécheresse a été proposé en 2018. Les études portent notamment sur la stratégie de dormance estivale et plus largement sur la généricité du compromis fonctionnel entre potentiel de croissance et survie au stress. Une revue multi-espèces et multi-stress a été publiée en 2023 dans Annals of Botany qui propose de considérer mieux la phénologie des plantes au travers d'un 'Plant economics spectrum' saisonnier.
