Mécanismes de régulation biologique des adventices par les couverts végétaux
2022
La régulation biologique des adventices par les couverts végétaux cultivés peut impliquer différents mécanismes. La compétition pour les ressources est le mécanisme considéré comme prépondérant dans la régulation des adventices par les couverts végétaux. L'allélopathie pourrait également jouer un rôle mais ses effets au champ sont difficiles à démontrer car difficiles à dissocier des effets d'autres mécanismes. Les couverts végétaux peuvent également affecter les adventices en modifiant le microclimat à la surface du sol. La régulation des adventices par les couverts végétaux peut également se faire par l'intervention d'organismes auxiliaires, comme des insectes responsables de prédation (c…
Exploring architectural traits and ecophysiological responses in soybean under heat and water stress: implications for climate change adaptation
2023
In the context of climate change, characterized by increasingly frequent droughts and heat waves, it is anticipated that the global soybean yields, the most extensively grown legume, will experience a significant decline in the foreseeable future.. There is thus an urgent need to improve its ability to maintain growth and productivity under such conditions. The objective of this study was to explore which plant traits make soybeans more resilient to heat and/or water stress, with a focus on plant architecture. For this purpose, two soybean genotypes, already shown to have contrasted root architecture (Maslard et al., 2021) were grown under controlledconditions in the high-throughput phenoty…
Ecophysiological processes underlying mineral nutrition of soybean under individual or combined heat and water stresses
2023
In a context of climate change, with more frequent drought events and heatwaves, it is predicted that soybean yields will drastically decrease in the near future. Soybean being the most widely grown legume crop in the world, there is an urgent need to improve its ability to sustain its growth under such conditions in order to guarantee high levels of productivity. The aim of this study was to explore the influence of heat and/or water stress on soybean growth and its water and mineral nutritions. Two soybean genotypes, displaying contrasted root architectures during their vegetative stage were grown under controlled conditions in the 4PMI high-throughput phenotyping platform where either op…
Soil organic carbon storage capacity of old and modern wheat varieties
2022
Despite the possible mitigation of carbon emissions by favoring carbon transfer to terrestrial carbon sinks, little is knownabout the capacity of different crop genotypes to enhance soil carbon sequestration. We hypothesize that carbon sequestrationpotential linked to old wheat varieties (released before 1960) is higher than the one linked to modern ones while old varietiesare known to develop bigger and deeper root systems. Moreover, modern varieties are often cultivated using syntheticchemical inputs known to modify soil carbon dynamics. We conducted a field experiment by cultivating four modern andfour old wheat varieties, with and without chemical inputs (nitrogen, herbicide and fungici…
Effects of hydrostatic pressure on yeasts isolated from deep-sea hydrothermal vents
2015
International audience; Hydrostatic pressure plays a significant role in the distribution of life in the biosphere. Knowledge of deep-sea piezotolerant and (hyper)piezophilic bacteria and archaea diversity has been well documented, along with their specific adaptations to cope with high hydrostatic pressure (HHP). Recent investigations of deep-sea microbial community compositions have shown unexpected micro-eukaryotic communities, mainly dominated by fungi. Molecular methods such as next-generation sequencing have been used for SSU rRNA gene sequencing to reveal fungal taxa. Currently, a difficult but fascinating challenge for marine mycologists is to create deep-sea marine fungus culture c…
Pd-Cu catalysts supported on anion exchange resin for the simultaneous catalytic reduction of nitrate ions and reductive dehalogenation of organochlo…
2019
International audience; The present work proposes the simultaneous removal of these classes of pollutants by a catalytic hydrotreatment processes. For this purpose, bimetallic Pd-Cu catalysts (with mass ratio Pd:Cu of 4:1) supported on macroporous strong base anion resin were prepared by different methods. The catalysts were characterized (by XRD, SEMEDX, XPS, AAS and H-2 chemisorption) and tested in a continuous flow system. The selected catalyst preparation protocol consists in a two-step method, which implies the deposition of palladium by ion exchange and the subsequent deposition of copper by controlled reaction on the surface of the pre-reduced palladium. The effectiveness of the cata…
Diversity and complexity of microbial communities from a chlor-alkali tailings dump
2015
Abstract Revegetation of the tailings dumps produced by various industrial activities is necessary to prevent dust storms and erosion and represents a great challenge for ecological restoration. Little is known about the microbial colonisation and community structure of revegetated tailings following site exploitation. Here, we report the sequencing of 16S rRNA and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) fungal RNA gene amplicons from chlor-alkali residue and from an adjacent undisturbed soil to define the composition and assembly of the rhizosphere microbial communities. After quality filtering, a total of 72,373 and 89,929 bacterial sequences and 122,618 and 111,209 fungal sequences remained fo…
Environmental spillovers and their impacts on housing prices: A spatial hedonic analysis
2015
This paper investigates the spatial dimension of environmental factors on housing prices. We develop spatial hedonic models to estimate the implicit prices of various environmental attributes. The spatial dimension can be interpreted in terms of local or global spillovers. We conduct an empirical study in the Loire estuary (France). We focus on natural areas and more artificialized ones (ocean frontage, wetlands, rivers, and noisy roads). We show that, depending on the spatial model used, the implicit price is more than just the estimated coefficient value and combines both a feedback effect and a propagation effect.

Sur les traces du plus vieux vin de Bourgogne : une image plurielle duvignoble originel
2015
International audience; Pourquoi la question de la recherche plus vieux vin de Bourgogne nous est posée lors desRencontres du Clos-Vougeot 2015 « Vin et civilisation : les étapes de l’humanisation » ?Pour la Bourgogne qui puise les ressorts de la qualité de ses vins dans son histoire, il estévident que l’ancienneté des usages, des vins, des vignobles, est le gage de la qualité du vinlui-même, même si le millésime de celui-ci ne remonte pas à plus de quelques années dans lepassé. « Ancient is beautiful » et c’est cette « patience et longueur de temps» qui justifie latradition vitivinicole bourguigonne, même si une grande partie de celle-ci est re-inventéedepuis le début du XXe siècle. Mais l…
