معرفی
Morgane Ourry is a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Department of Plant and Environmental Sciences at the University of Copenhagen, specializing in complex organismal interactions. Her work integrates molecular ecology, soil science, and entomology to investigate tripartite relationships between plants, insects, and microorganisms.
Her research focuses on soil biodiversity dynamics and molecular mechanisms driving plant-insect-microbe interactions. Current projects include the H2020 Excalibur initiative assessing fungal inoculum effects in strawberry fields, development of soil microbial markers, and molecular studies of strawberry-spider mite-entomopathogenic fungi systems. Earlier work examined oilseed rape-cabbage root fly-microbiota interactions through field trials, metabarcoding, and metabolomic analyses.
Analysis of her 11 publications reveals strong emphasis on rhizosphere ecology, microbial community resilience, and biological control applications. Key trends include Wolbachia-mediated microbiome manipulation, antibiotic effects on insect microbiota, and fungal-induced plant defense priming across multiple crop systems.
She actively contributes to scientific discourse through conference organization (including national doctoral congresses) and presentations on microbial community profiling. Her methodological expertise spans high-throughput sequencing, statistical analysis of multi-omics data, and experimental design for field-based ecological studies.
