Jean-François Humbert

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Ecology
• Bacteria
• Ecosystem

Jean-François Humbert spends much of his time researching Cyanobacteria, Ecology, Bloom, Genetics and Microcystin. When carried out as part of a general Cyanobacteria research project, his work on Planktothrix is frequently linked to work in Aromatic amino acids, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His Ecology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Genetic variation and Genetic diversity.

His research investigates the connection between Bloom and topics such as Phytoplankton that intersect with problems in Phycocyanin and Food science. The various areas that Jean-François Humbert examines in his Microcystin study include Botany and Genotype. His Genome research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Microcystis aeruginosa and Microcystis.

His most cited work include:

• CYLINDROSPERMOPSIS RACIBORSKII (CYANOBACTERIA) INVASION AT MID‐LATITUDES: SELECTION, WIDE PHYSIOLOGICAL TOLERANCE, ORGLOBALWARMING?1 (272 citations)
• Health hazards for terrestrial vertebrates from toxic cyanobacteria in surface water ecosystems (243 citations)
• First report in a river in France of the benthic cyanobacterium Phormidium favosum producing anatoxin-a associated with dog neurotoxicosis. (235 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His scientific interests lie mostly in Ecology, Cyanobacteria, Phytoplankton, Freshwater ecosystem and Microcystis. Jean-François Humbert studied Ecology and Genetic diversity that intersect with Genetic variation, Phylogenetics and Population genetics. His Cyanobacteria study incorporates themes from Oceanography and Botany.

His studies in Microcystis integrate themes in fields like Microcystis aeruginosa, Microbiology and Metabolism. He usually deals with Microcystin and limits it to topics linked to Food science and Phycocyanin. As a member of one scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Bloom, focusing on Genotype and, on occasion, Teladorsagia circumcincta.

He most often published in these fields:

• Ecology (44.17%)
• Cyanobacteria (46.67%)
• Phytoplankton (19.17%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

• Ecology (44.17%)
• Cyanobacteria (46.67%)
• Freshwater ecosystem (18.33%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Jean-François Humbert mainly focuses on Ecology, Cyanobacteria, Freshwater ecosystem, Phytoplankton and Benthic zone. His studies deal with areas such as Pyrosequencing and Microbial ecology as well as Ecology. The concepts of his Cyanobacteria study are interwoven with issues in Microorganism, Bloom, Oceanography and Botany.

Jean-François Humbert has included themes like Water supply, Phylogenetic tree and Microcystis in his Freshwater ecosystem study. His work carried out in the field of Microcystis brings together such families of science as Nitrogen fixation and Mucilage. His research integrates issues of Biomass, Water quality, Biological system and Turbidity in his study of Phytoplankton.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

• Overview of freshwater microbial eukaryotes diversity: a first analysis of publicly available metabarcoding data. (93 citations)
• A next-generation sequencing approach to river biomonitoring using benthic diatoms (85 citations)
• Structural Diversity of Bacterial Communities Associated with Bloom-Forming Freshwater Cyanobacteria Differs According to the Cyanobacterial Genus (68 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

• Ecology
• Bacteria
• Ecosystem

His primary areas of study are Ecology, Cyanobacteria, Freshwater ecosystem, Benthic zone and Ecosystem. His Ecology research includes elements of Evolutionary biology, Pyrosequencing, DNA sequencing and Ribosomal RNA. Jean-François Humbert is interested in Microcystis, which is a field of Cyanobacteria.

His research on Freshwater ecosystem also deals with topics like

• Nitrogen fixation, which have a strong connection to Planktothrix, Phylogenetics, Genetic diversity and Anabaena,
• Bioinformatics, Cryptophyta and Microbial ecology most often made with reference to Phylogenetic tree. His Ecosystem research incorporates themes from Ecotoxicology, Microcosm, Community structure and Gammaproteobacteria. In Phytoplankton, Jean-François Humbert works on issues like Botany, which are connected to Plankton, Biomass and Benthos.
