Overview

Jean Bousquet is affiliated with Université Laval in Canada and has a research focus that spans several interrelated fields including Environmental Science, Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology, and Agricultural and Biological Sciences. Their work explores topics within these areas, with particular attention to forest ecology and management, plant water relations and carbon dynamics, and genetic diversity and population structure.

The scientist's research delves into both broad and specialized topics such as tree-ring climate responses, genomics and phylogenetic studies, bioenergy crop production and management, and forest management and policy.

Their publication record includes articles in various scientific journals. Notable recent papers include:

  • Complete Mitochondrial Genome of a Gymnosperm, Sitka Spruce (Picea sitchensis), Indicates a Complex Physical Structure (2020) published in Genome Biology and Evolution
  • Adaptive genetic variation to drought in a widely distributed conifer suggests a potential for increasing forest resilience in a drying climate (2020) published in New Phytologist
  • Connecting tree-ring phenotypes, genetic associations and transcriptomics to decipher the genomic architecture of drought adaptation in a widespread conifer (2021) published in Molecular Ecology
  • Breeding for adaptation to climate change: genomic selection for drought response in a white spruce multi-site polycross test (2022) published in Evolutionary Applications
  • Genomic selection for resistance to spruce budworm in white spruce and relationships with growth and wood quality traits (2020) published in Evolutionary Applications

Bousquet frequently collaborates with a core group of co-authors, including P. Lenz, Nathalie Isabel, John Mackay, Simon Nadeau, and Jöerg Bohlmann, with the number of joint publications ranging from 9 to 14.

Publication venues where the scientist's work appears recurrently include:

  • bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)
  • Frontiers in Plant Science
  • Scientific Reports
  • Genome Biology and Evolution
  • Evolutionary Applications

Their research applies methodologies intersecting molecular biology and nature and landscape conservation, with significant engagement in global and planetary change issues. Subfields prominently represented in their work are molecular biology, genetics, and plant science.

Jean Bousquet's study areas contribute to understanding drought adaptation mechanisms in conifers, genomic architecture linking phenotype and genotype, and the genetic improvement of forest species for enhanced resilience against climate-related stresses and pest resistance.
