Research interests

  • Evolution of recombination and of mating type chromosomes on various Microbotryum species, a clade a fungi causing anther smut disease in Caryophyllaceae. To this aim I aim at developping (among other) a pangenomic approach.
  • Evolution of sexuals chromosomes and other kinds of supergene in Microbotyrum spp and Heliconius numata tropical butterflies.
  • Local adaptation, gene flow, recombination on various fishes species.
  • Speciation, Inference of evolutionary history on various species (Salmonideae, Heliconius among other)
  • Consequences of demographic event and of recombination variation on the efficacy of selection and on the genetic load.
  • Conservation genetics.
