In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:
Laurent Duret mainly focuses on Genome, Genetics, Evolutionary biology, Gene conversion and Effective population size.
His primary area of study in Genome is in the field of Genomics.
Gene, Recombination, Gene duplication, Macronucleus and Mating type are the subjects of his Genetics studies.
His Evolutionary biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Clade, Phylogenetic tree, Population genomics, Genetic diversity and Synonymous substitution.
His Gene conversion study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Codon usage bias and Homologous recombination.
His study on Effective population size also encompasses disciplines like
- Natural selection, which have a strong connection to Nearly neutral theory of molecular evolution and Molecular evolution,
- Allele frequency which intersects with area such as Human genome,
- Population genetics together with Evolutionary dynamics.
Between 2014 and 2021, his most popular works were:
- GC-Content evolution in bacterial genomes: the biased gene conversion hypothesis expands. (133 citations)
