Development of an Efficient In Vivo System (P-junc-TpaseIS(1223)) for Random Transposon Mutagenesis of Lactobacillus casei
2012
ABSTRACT The random transposon mutagenesis system P junc -TpaseIS 1223 is composed of plasmids pVI129, expressing IS 1223 transposase, and pVI110, a suicide transposon plasmid carrying the P junc sequence, the substrate of the IS 1223 transposase. This system is particularly efficient in Lactobacillus casei , as more than 10,000 stable, random mutants were routinely obtained via electroporation.
DeepIndices : Une nouvelle approche des indices de télédétection basée sur l'optimisation et l'approximation de fonctions par DeepLearning. Applicati…
2021
National audience; L'une des avancées les plus importantes dans le domaine de l'observation de la terre est la découverte des indices spectraux, ils ont notamment prouvé leur efficacité dans la caractérisation des surfaces agricoles, mais ils sont généralement définis de manière empirique. Cette étude basée sur l'intelligence artificielle et le traitement du signal, propose une méthode pour trouver un indice optimal. Et porte sur l'analyse d'images issues d'une caméra multi-spectrale, utilisée dans un contexte agricole pour l'acquisition en champ proche de végétation. À partir de six bandes spectrales, cinq modèles ont été testés et déployés dans un framework d'apprentissage profond. Les pe…
Climat et viticulture au Vietnam : évaluation et perspectives
2009
International audience; Parmi les activités humaines, la culture de la vigne pour la production de vin est fortement dépendante des conditions climatiques. Le potentiel d'une zone viticole est sous l'étroite influence du climat, en particulier des conditions radiatives, thermiques et hydriques, de telle sorte que la plupart des vignobles à caractère œnologique sont localisés aux latitudes moyennes. Pourtant, l'expansion de la viti-viniculture aux basses latitudes s'est accélérée ces dernières années. Ici, les conditions climatiques et la faible variation de longueur des jours permettent dans la plupart des cas deux à trois récoltes par an, alors qu'une seule n'est envisageable dans les régi…
Procédé de Liquéfaction, Saccharification et Fermentation Simultanée à Très Haute Gravité utilisant de la farine de manioc pour la production de l'ét…
2021
A simultaneous liquefaction, saccharification and fermentation (SLSF) process at very high gravity of cassava flour for potable ethanol production was developed at lab (1 L) and pilot scale (15 L and 1000 L). Cassava flour (CF) was mixed with tap water to obtain a concentration of 270 g/L dry matter. Sequentially, the mixture of a native starch hydrolyzing enzyme containing a mixture of alpha–amylase and gluco-amylase (Stargen 002 at 2565 GAU/kg CF), gluco-amylase (Amigase Mega L at 0.105% w/w), active dry yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Red Ethanol at 3,5 × 10^7 cells/ml), KH2PO4 (9,9 mM) and urea (16.0 mM) was added into cassava slurry. The SLSF-VHG process including three steps of liquef…
Cover crops and pruning in Bobal and Tempranillo vineyards have little influence on grapevine nutrition
2016
ABSTRACT Cover crops may improve vineyard soil properties, grapevine nutrient status and berry composition, however, factors such as cover crop type, annual rainfall, climate and irrigation may change their effects on vineyards. From 2008 to 2011, the effects of a non-permanent cover crop and two pruning techniques on soil as well as vine nutrients and grapevine performance of two vineyards (cv. Tempranillo and cv. Bobal) were evaluated. For that purpose, two legumes were sown in inter-rows of hand-pruned vines in February and were tilled at flowering. Soil tillage, or cover cropping, was combined with either light pruning or severe pruning to study foliar nutrient variations. Soil N, P, K …
Nitrogen Distribution in Annual Growth of ‘Italia’ Table Grape Vines
2018
Little information is available about either nitrogen (N) content/concentration in table grape vines. The knowledge about N accumulated by the vine organs during the season could support sustainable fertilization programs for table grape vineyards. The aim of the present paper was to investigate the N content in different annual organs, in summer and winter pruning materials, clusters at harvest and fallen leaves at post-harvest of table grape vines in order to verify the vine annual N requirements to be used for sustainable N fertilization schedules. Biomass and nitrogen were analyzed at six phenological growth stages (flowering, berry-set, berry growth, veraison, ripening, and harvest) fr…
The effect of climate on Burgundy vintage quality rankings.
2019
Aim: Based on consensus rankings from prominent rating authorities, we examined the importance of a suite of climatic variables, organized by winegrape phenological stage, in distinguishing between high- and low-ranked vintages in Burgundy.Methods and Results: Vintage ratings of Burgundy wines acquired from 12 sources were evaluated to develop consensus rankings for red and white wines from 1961–2015. Climate variables (air temperature, precipitation, degree-day accumulations, etc.) were organized by mean phenological stage and compared between good and poor vintages using Mann-Whitney U tests and multivariate stepwise discriminant function analysis. High temperatures, particularly during t…

Realizacja zasad zrównoważonego rozwoju na przykładzie wybranych osiedli mieszkaniowych Opola
2020
W artykule poddano analizie cechy osiedli mieszkaniowych w kontekście rozwoju zrównoważonego. Główny celem artykułu jest stwierdzenie, czy zasady rozwoju zrównoważonego są realizowane zwłaszcza w nowej i starej przestrzeni mieszkaniowej. Autorka próbowała ocenić opolską przestrzeń mieszkaniową w kontekście zrównoważonego osiedla mieszkaniowego. Dokonała porównania nowego i dawnego budownictwa mieszkaniowego uwzględniając kontekst zrównoważonej przestrzeni określanej za pomocą tzw. walking distance.
The impact of the cultivation practices on arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis mechanism in a walnut tree - corn agroforestry system
2021
The English walnut (Juglans regia L.) is the main species cultivated for the production of edible nuts. Owing to a sparse canopy and a deep rooting system, walnut is an ideal species for alley cropping, an agroforestry practice able to enhance productivity through interplant facilitative mechanisms. Walnut agroforestry requires the large scale production of seedling rootstocks selected to provide the best anchorage, vigour, and tolerance of pathogens. Due to the heterozygosity of walnut, the characteristics of agronomical interest of the chosen cultivar are not inherited via seed propagation. In vitro plant tissue culture thus plays a key role in mass propagation of high-quality walnut root…
