Overview

Philippe Potin is affiliated with Sorbonne University in France and conducts research primarily in Agricultural and Biological Sciences and Earth and Planetary Sciences. Their work spans multiple subfields including Oceanography, Plant Science, Aquatic Science, Ecology, and Molecular Biology.

The scientist's research focuses on several main topics, which include:

  • Marine and coastal plant biology
  • Seaweed-derived bioactive compounds
  • Algal biology and biofuel production
  • Microbial community ecology and physiology
  • Plant stress responses and tolerance
  • Aquaculture nutrition and growth
  • Coastal wetland ecosystem dynamics

Philippe Potin has contributed to various frequent publication venues, notably:

  • Algal Research
  • bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)
  • Journal of Phycology
  • Journal of Applied Phycology
  • Cell

The scientist's notable recent papers include:

  • "Exhaustive reanalysis of barcode sequences from public repositories highlights ongoing misidentifications and impacts taxa diversity and distribution" (2021) published in Molecular Ecology Resources
  • "Evolutionary genomics of the emergence of brown algae as key components of coastal ecosystems" (2024) published in Cell
  • "Foliose Ulva Species Show Considerable Inter-Specific Genetic Diversity, Low Intra-Specific Genetic Variation, and the Rare Occurrence of Inter-Specific Hybrids in the Wild" (2020) published in Journal of Phycology
  • "Isoprostanoid Profiling of Marine Microalgae" (2020) published in Biomolecules
  • "Low Mannitol Concentrations in Arabidopsis thaliana Expressing Ectocarpus Genes Improve Salt Tolerance" (2020) published in Plants

Philippe Potin has collaborated frequently with several researchers, including:

  • Catherine Leblanc
  • Stéphane Mauger
  • Christophe Destombe
  • Simon M. Dittami
  • Sylvie Rousvoal

In addition to journal articles, Potin has contributed to book publications such as a chapter in Seaweeds and microalgae: an overview for unlocking their potential in global aquaculture development (2021) published by FAO eBooks.
