Hugues, Massicotte - University of Northern British Columbia

研究领域

Dr Massicotte's research interests include the structure and biodiversity of mycorrhizae, tree and rhizosphere biology, and forest mycology. He has published extensively in a number of international scientific journals. - Mycorrhizae diversity and host linkages in Sub-Boreal forests of Central Interior B.C. (lodgepole pine and Sitka alder communities; black spruce-scrub birch communities). - Biodiversity of ectomycorrhizal associations and rhizosphere bacterial populations in plant communities following wildfire and prescribed burning. - Studies on root biomass and mycorrhizae abundance in coarse woody debris of the montane and subalpine forests in Central Interior B.C. - Studies on anatomy and morphology of several mycorrhizal systems (Kobresia and Polygonum, Paxillus involutus, Rhizopogon species, Madrone and Douglas-fir). - Morphological and molecular assessment of ectomycorrhizal diversity in mycoheterotrophic hosts (Indian pipe-Monotropa uniflora, Pinedrops-Pterospora andromedea). - Impacts of winter harvesting practices on the snowpack profile and its thermal qualities on soil micro-climate, soil organisms and soil processes. - Impact of fertilization and root form on growth and survival of white spruce. - Descriptive study of protozoan diversity in forest soils, particularly the Testacean group. - Studies using biochemical markers (ergosterol) to monitor ectomycorrhizae vitality and biomass. - In vitro tree seedling inoculation with various symbiotic fungi (Rhizopogon spp., Truncocolumella spp.). - Studies on tree host specificity using mycorrhizal fungi and dual culture models.
