EMPLOYMENT Current position since January 2005 Associate Professor at the school Agrocampus Ouest Angers,  http://www.agrocampus-ouest.fr/infoglueDeliverLive/ Department: Plant Sciences applied to Agriculture and Horticulture  Laboratory: JRU  IRHS ‘Research Institute on Horticulture and Seeds (INRA/AO/UA)‘ https://www6.angers-nantes.inra.fr/irhs Research team: QuaRVeg ‘Quality and Resistance to pests and diseases in Vegetables’ Skills: plant resistance, quantitative genetics, plant pathology, plant breeding
 
RESEARCH INTEREST Main research: Study of the genetic determinism of carrot resistance to Alternaria dauci QTLs were identified in different genetic backgrounds, environments and with different scoring methods. Functional analysis of carrot resistance to Alternaria dauci is under progress in order to identify some mQTLS (metabolite QTLs) which are involved in carrot resistance to A. dauci and could explain the identified QTLs.
 
Other projects: Multiresistance to pathogens (Alternaria radicina and Xanthomonas hortorum pv. carotae) Developing new phenotyping methods to evaluate carrot resistance Understanding the interaction between biotic and abiotic stresses; assessing the determinants involved in root quality and resistance to A. dauci
 
TEACHING AREAS Horticulture Vegetable and seed production and chain Genetic resources
 
EDUCATION 2001, Ph. D in cellular and molecular plant biology, University of Angers, France Title:  “Evaluation of carrot genetic diversity (Daucus carota L.): strategies for analyses and regeneration of genetic resources “ Based on molecular markers, new methodologies were developed for the characterization, conservation and regeneration of carrot accessions of the “National collection of Carrot and others Daucus”.
