Résumé : (not controled OCR) like most other caribbean islands, martinique suffers a reduction in fisheries resources and is now a net importer of seafood products since no major expansion of aquaculture production has been done. nevertheless, this island has numerous assets for marine aquaculture development : tropical clean waters, developed infrastructures and market channels, financial support for research, training and extension due to its tight political and economic connection with france. red drum is a subtropical fish introduced in martinique in 1985 from the south of usa for aquaculture purposes. from 1987 to 1993, ifremer worked on rearing techniques in martiniquan conditions. once the farming techniques were perfected, questions raised about red drum marketing potential and of economic viability of red drum farms in order to attract investments and entrepreneurs. that is the reason why a market analysis and a financial analysis have been carried out. the results of these studies indicate that martiniquan fish farming could be profitable, due to the rapid build-up of the facilities and to the sho rt production cycles. the good quality of infrastructures in martinique, the high purchase power of the population in comparison with most caribbean islands and the frequent air links with europe are important comparative advantages. the market analysis has revealed a good potential on the domestic market thanks to the development of the supermarkets, but has underlined the price constraint. for the french market too, production costs have to be lowered in order to compete on a market dominated by salmon.

Résumé : International audience
Microsatellites (SSRs) are highly susceptible to expansions and contractions. When located in a coding sequence, the insertion or the deletion of a single unit for a mono-, di-, tetra-, or penta(nucleotide)-SSR creates a frameshift. As a consequence, one would expect to find only very few of these SSRs in coding sequences because of their strong deleterious potential. Unexpectedly, genomes contain many coding SSRs of all types. Here, we report on a study of their evolution in a phylogenetic context using the genomes of four primates: human, chimpanzee, orangutan, and macaque. In a set of 5,015 orthologous genes unambiguously aligned among the four species, we show that, except for tri- and hexa-SSRs, for which insertions and deletions are frequently observed, SSRs in coding regions evolve mainly by substitutions. We show that the rate of substitution in all types of coding SSRs is typically two times higher than in the rest of coding sequences. Additionally, we observe that although numerous coding SSRs are created and lost by substitutions in the lineages, their numbers remain constant. This last observation suggests that the coding SSRs have reached equilibrium. We hypothesize that this equilibrium involves a combination of mutation, drift, and selection. We thus estimated the fitness cost of mono-SSRs and show that it increases with the number of units. We finally show that the cost of coding mono-SSRs greatly varies from function to function, suggesting that the strength of the selection that acts against them can be correlated to gene functions.

Résumé : International audience
RATIONALE: Optimal management of complicated parapneumonic effusions (CPPE) remains controversial. OBJECTIVES: to assess safety and efficacy of iterative therapeutic thoracentesis (ITTC), the first-line treatment of CPPE in Rennes University Hospital. METHODS: Patients with CPPE were identified through our computerized database. We retrospectively studied all cases of CPPE initially managed with ITTC in our institution between 2001 and 2010. ITTC failure was defined by the need for additional treatment (i.e. surgery or percutaneous drainage), or death. RESULTS: Seventy-nine consecutive patients were included. The success rate was 81% (n = 64). Only 3 patients (4%) were referred to thoracic surgery. The one-year survival rate was 88%. On multivariate analysis, microorganisms observed in pleural fluid after Gram staining and first thoracentesis volume ≥450 mL were associated with ITTC failure with adjusted odds-ratios of 7.65 [95% CI, 1.44-40.67] and 6.97 [95% CI, 1.86-26.07], respectively. The main complications of ITTC were iatrogenic pneumothorax (n = 5, 6%) and vasovagal reactions (n = 3, 4%). None of the pneumothoraces required chest tube drainage, and no hemothorax or re-expansion pulmonary edema was observed. CONCLUSIONS: Although not indicated in international recommendations, ITTC is safe and effective as first-line treatment of CPPE, with limited invasiveness.

Résumé : International audience
1. The Before-After Control-Impact Paired Series (BACIPS) design distinguishes natural spatial and temporalvariability from variation induced by an environmental impact (or intervention) of interest. BACIPS is a powerfultool to derive inferences about interventions when classic experimental approaches (e.g. which rely on spatialreplicates and random assignment of treatments) are not feasible or desirable. Previously applied BACIPSdesigns generally assume that effects are sudden, constant and long-lived: that is, that systems exhibit ‘stepchanges’in response to interventions. However, complex ecological interactions or gradual interventions maycreate delayed and/or progressive responses, potentially impeding the reliability of classic (step-change) analyses.2. We propose a novel approach, the Progressive-Change BACIPS, which generalizes and expands the scope ofBACIPS analyses.We evaluate the relative performance of this approach using both simulated and real data thatexhibit step-change, linear, asymptotic and sigmoid responses following an intervention.We quantify the statisticalpower and accuracy of the Progressive-Change BACIPS under varying initial population densities, intensityof spatial sampling, effect sizes and number of sampling dates After the intervention.3. We show that Progressive-Change BACIPS identified the correct model among the set of candidate modelsunder most conditions and led to accurate estimates of the parameters that were used to generate the simulateddata. When data were sparse, and the dynamics complex, simpler (more parsimonious) models were favouredover the more complex models that actually generated the simulated data. Application of the Progressive-Change BACIPS to existing data sets from the literature led to strong support for specific models (over alternatives)and led to more specific inferences than possible under the classic BACIPS approach.4. The Progressive-Change BACIPS proposed here is more flexible than the original BACIPS formulationbecause the data are used to inform the form of the final model, rather than having the form of the modelimposed on the data. This leads to better estimates of the effects of environmental impacts and the time-scalesover which they operate. As a result, the Progressive-Change BACIPS should be applicable to a wide range ofstudies and should help improve investigation of time-dependent effects. R code to perform Progressive-ChangeBACIPS analysis is provided.

Résumé : Academia and management agencies show a growing interest for ecosystem-based fishery management (EBFM). However, the way to operationalize this approach remains challenging. The present paper illustrates how the concepts of stochastic co-viability, which accounts for dynamic complexities, uncertainties, risk and sustainability constraints, can be useful for the implementation of EBFM. In the present case, this concept is used to identify fishing strategies that satisfy both ecological conservation and economic sustainability in a multi-species, multi-fleet context. Economic Viability Analysis (EVA) and the broader Co-Viability Analysis (CVA), are proposed to expand the usual Population Viability Analysis (PVA) and precautionary approach. An illustration is proposed, using data on the fisheries of Bay of Biscay (France) exploiting the stocks of nephrops and hake. Stochastic simulations show how CVA can guarantee both ecological (stock) and economic (profit) sustainability. Using 2008 as a baseline, the model is used to identify fishing efforts that ensure such co-viability. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Résumé : International audience
Climatic niche conservatism, the tendency of species-climate associations to remain unchanged across space and time, is pivotal for forecasting the spread of invasive species and biodiversity changes. Indeed, it represents one of the key assumptions underlying species distribution models (SDMs), the main tool currently available for predicting range shifts of species. However, to date, no comprehensive assessment of niche conservatism is available for the marine realm. We use the invasion by Indo-Pacific tropical fishes into the Mediterranean Sea, the world's most invaded marine basin, to examine the conservatism of the climatic niche. We show that tropical invaders may spread far beyond their native niches and that SDMs do not predict their new distributions better than null models. Our results suggest that SDMs may underestimate the potential spread of invasive species and call for prudence in employing these models in order to forecast species invasion and their response to environmental change.

Résumé : International audience
Fault pseudotachylytes form by frictional melting during seismic slip and therefore are widely interpreted as “earthquake fossils.” Rapid movement along a rupture surface typically forms a pseudotachylyte generation vein, the thickness of which increases with earthquake magnitude. The direction and sense of seismic slip cannot always be determined due to the generally complex geometry of pseudotachylyte veins. Here we show, for the first time, that the orientation of the magnetic fabric of fault pseudotachylytes indicates both direction and sense of seismic slip. The magnetic fabric, acquired in a manner similar to that of other magmas, arises in this case from the asymmetric preferred orientation of paramagnetic grains during viscous shear of the friction melt. This kinematic information, coupled with fault plane orientation and generation vein thickness, provides new and critical insight for the earthquake focal mechanism. The magnetic fabric of pseudotachylytes therefore not only constitutes a valuable kinematic criterion for these fault rocks, but also could expand our knowledge of prehistoric seismic events.

Résumé : International audience
The Black Rat (Rattus rattus) spread out of Asia to become one of the world's worst agricultural and urban pests, and a reservoir or vector of numerous zoonotic diseases, including the devastating plague. Despite the global scale and inestimable cost of their impacts on both human livelihoods and natural ecosystems, little is known of the global genetic diversity of Black Rats, the timing and directions of their historical dispersals, and the risks associated with contemporary movements. We surveyed mitochondrial DNA of Black Rats collected across their global range as a first step towards obtaining an historical genetic perspective on this socioeconomically important group of rodents. We found a strong phylogeographic pattern with well-differentiated lineages of Black Rats native to South Asia, the Himalayan region, southern Indochina, and northern Indochina to East Asia, and a diversification that probably commenced in the early Middle Pleistocene. We also identified two other currently recognised species of Rattus as potential derivatives of a paraphyletic R.rattus. Three of the four phylogenetic lineage units within R. rattus show clear genetic signatures of major population expansion in prehistoric times, and the distribution of particular haplogroups mirrors archaeologically and historically documented patterns of human dispersal and trade. Commensalism clearly arose multiple times in R. Rattus and in widely separated geographic regions, and this may account for apparent regionalism in their associated pathogens. Our findings represent an important step towards deeper understanding the complex and influential relationship that has developed between Black Rats and humans, and invite a thorough re-examination of host-pathogen associations among Black Rats.

Résumé : Les populations envahissantes sont généralement confrontées à un monde hétérogène où les conditions abiotiques, la distribution et la disponibilité en ressource et les densités d’espèces natives varient à la fois dans le temps et dans l’espace. Une telle hétérogénéité environmentale peut jouer un rôle décisif dans le succès d’établissement et sur la vitesse d’expansion d’une invasion. Des capacités de dispersion dans le temps et dans l’espace sont attendues pour permettre aux populations envahissantes de faire face à ces contraintes. Les Hyménoptères spécialistes des graines du genre Megastigmus (Torymidae) sont des modèles invasifs intéressants parce-qu’ils exploitent des populations d’arbres qui sont réparties en patchs discontinus dans le paysage et qui montrent des variations inter-annuelles synchronisées et de forte amplitude dans la production de graines (masting). Nous nous sommes intéressés à l’invasion récente des forêts de cèdre de l’Atlas du sud-est de la France par M. schimitscheki, qui montre de fortes propensions à : (i) la dispersion passive par le vent (dispersion spatiale), et (ii) la diapause prolongée, une forme de dormance larvaire pouvant durer de 3 à 5 années consécutives (dispersion temporelle). Dans un premier temps, nous montrons que, malgré une distribution très fragmentée de son hôte obligatoire à l’échelle du paysage, M. schimitscheki a pu envahir la quasi-totalité des cédraies de la région PACA par des évènements de dispersion à longue distance depuis sa zone d’introduction, à la faveur d’un vent régional dominant (le Mistral). Dans un second temps, nous montrons que, à l’échelle d’une population, la diapause prolongée peut constituer un refuge temporel démographique et génétique pour des cohortes soumises aux variations extrêmes de disponibilité en ressources, qui résultent du masting de leur hôte obligatoire.

Résumé : Les zones franches sont des espaces de dérogations législative et sociale. Elles sont spécialisées dans des activités manufacturières où dominent majoritairement l’assemblage textile et minoritairement l’électronique et les services. Elles se développent dans la région Caraïbe, au cours des décennies 1980 et 1990, dans un contexte économique favorable. Dans cet article nous nous interrogeons sur les causes économiques de leur émergence. Ces espaces industriels sont difficiles à définir tant les activités présentes sont diverses et évolutives dans le temps. C’est pour cette raison que dans la première partie nous traitons de la complexité de cette notion. Ensuite, nous verrons les causes économiques de leur émergence. Le semi-échec des politiques d’industrialisation par substitution des importations oriente l’industrialisation vers l’extraversion. Les principes libéraux appliqués à Puerto-Rico servent à encadrer les industries exportatrices. Les plans d’ajustement du FMI pour réguler le problème de l’endettement ont servi de catalyseur aux exportations des biens manufacturés. Parallèlement, les accords commerciaux du Caribbean Basin Initiative (CBI) avec la puissance étasunienne ont encadré leur essor. Enfin, nous montrerons les modalités de leur implantation dans la Caraïbe, modalités qui induisent des différences géographiques entre des îles entièrement franches et celles où les zones franches sont des enclaves économiques. L’étude de ces dernières en République dominicaine permet de mettre en exergue leur expansion spatiale.
The free zones are spaces of social and legislative exemptions. They are specialized in manufacturing activities dominated mainly by the textile assembly. They develop in the Caribbean during decades 1980s and 1990s, in a favourable economic environment. In this article we question the economic causes of their emergence. These industrial areas are difficult to define as these activities are diverse and evolving over time. For this reason in the first part we deal with the complexity of the concept. Then we will see the economic causes of their emergence. The semi-failed policies of industrialization by import substitution industrialization oriented toward the extrovert. The IMF adjustment plans to regulate the problem of indebtedness has been a catalyst for exports of manufactured goods. Meanwhile, the trade agreements of the Caribbean Basin Initiative (CBI) with the U.S.A. supervised their development. Finally, we show how their presence in the Caribbean, conditions that lead to geographical differences between completely free zone islands and those where the free zones are economic enclaves. The recent study in the Dominican Republic will highlight their spatial expansion.

Résumé :  
We examined the limitations of parataxonomic inventories for developing management plans for woody plant resources in tropical rain forests of southwestern Amazonia. Using compilations of herbarium labels, forest personnel interviews and published species descriptions, we assessed the accuracy of common names as parataxonomic units (PUs). We identified 384 common names for 310 harvested woody plant species in the Brazilian state of Acre, of which only 50% were unique to a single taxonomic species. About 10% of common names referred to more than one species, more than half of which included multiple genera. For the 106 species from the Acre sample common to the MAP region including Madre de Dios, Peru and Pando, Bolivia, we identified 198 common names. Splitting was much more frequent in this sample, with more than 80% of species having more than one common name. When the Acre sample was expanded to 131 species from the Brazilian Amazon region, including the states of Amazonas and Para, we identified 740 common names, with nearly 90% of species being represented by more than one common name. Errors and inaccuracy of parataxonomy may contribute to market instability if product orders can not be homogenized within regional markets, and to unsustainable harvests if species are mistakenly lumped into single parataxonomic units. We discuss several programs currently being implemented by our collaborative team in the region to address this issue, including field guides based on digital photography, field courses, and workshops featuring discussions between regional inventory personnel and botanists.

Résumé : International audience
Although coral reefs support the largest concentrations of marine biodiversity worldwide, the extent to which the global system of marine-protected areas (MPAs) represents individual species and the breadth of evolutionary history across the Tree of Life has never been quantified. Here we show that only 5.7% of scleractinian coral species and 21.7% of labrid fish species reach the minimum protection target of 10% of their geographic ranges within MPAs. We also estimate that the current global MPA system secures only 1.7% of the Tree of Life for corals, and 17.6% for fishes. Regionally, the Atlantic and Eastern Pacific show the greatest deficit of protection for corals while for fishes this deficit is located primarily in the Western Indian Ocean and in the Central Pacific. Our results call for a global coordinated expansion of current conservation efforts to fully secure the Tree of Life on coral reefs.

Résumé : International audience
This paper presents the background for the calculation of anisotropic piezoelectric properties of single crystals and the graphical display of the results in two or three dimensions, and the calculation of the aggregate properties from constituent crystals and the texture of the aggregate in a coherent manner. The texture data can be obtained from a wide range of sources, including pole figure diffraction and single orientation measurements (electron backscattered diffraction, electron channelling pattern, Laue Pattern, optical microscope universal-stage). We consider the elastic wave propagation in piezoelectric crystals as an example of the interaction of electrical (2nd rank tensor), piezoelectric (3rd rank tensor) and elastic properties (4th rank tensor). In particular, we give explicit formulae for the calculation of the Voigt averaged tensor from individual orientations or from an orientation distribution function. For the latter we consider numerical integration and an approach based on the expansion into spherical harmonics. We illustrate the methods using single crystals, polycrystalline quartz measured using electron channelling patterns and ideal Curie limiting groups applied to quartz aggregates. This paper also serves as a reference paper for the mathematical tensor capabilities of the texture analysis software MTEX

Résumé : International audience
Cytogenetics provides a unique platform to study in situ structural, functional, and evolutionary aspects of the genome. As such it holds powerful promise in decoding mechanisms and processes of genome architectural changes and their role in organism's diversification and evolution. Since the early 80s, such an approach has been applied to the study of the Antarctic notothenioid fishes. In almost three decades, the cytogenetic information has expanded to cover half of the known species inhabiting the high Antarctic waters. Although started 10 years later, cytogenetic studies of species from the Ross sea region have provided valuable contributions to this bulk of knowledge. Here, we synthesize the currently available cytogenetic information on Antarctic notothenioid fishes from the Ross Sea Region, inclusive of both conventional karyotyping and gene mapping. In addition, new karyotypic data on four species (Lepidonotothen squamifrons, Trematomus scotti, T. loennbergii, and T. lepidorhinus) are provided. In discussing these data, specific focus is made on the patterns and subtleties of cytogenetic diversity at inter- and intra-specific levels aiming at contributing to the refinement of the knowledge of fish diversity in a region, the Ross Sea area, whose primary ecological value is widely recognized.

Résumé : International audience
Tuftelin (TUFT1) is an acidic, phosphorylated glycoprotein, initially discovered in developing enamel matrix. TUFT1 is expressed in many mineralized and non-mineralized tissues. We performed an evolutionary analysis of 82 mammalian TUFT1 sequences to identify residues and motifs that were conserved during 220 million years (Ma) of evolution. We showed that 168 residues (out of the 390 residues composing the human TUFT1 sequence) are under purifying selection. Our analyses identified several, new, putatively functional domains and confirmed previously described functional domains, such as the TIP39 interaction domain, which correlates with nuclear localization of the TUFT1 protein, that was demonstrated in several tissues. We also identified several sites under positive selection, which could indicate evolutionary changes possibly related to the functional diversification of TUFT1 during evolution in some lineages. We discovered that TUFT1 and MYZAP (myocardial zonula adherens protein) share a common ancestor that was duplicated circa 500 million years ago. Taken together, these findings expand our knowledge of TUFT1 evolution and provide new information that will be useful for further investigation of TUFT1 functions.

Résumé : The geological storage of CO 2 is considered as one of the solutions to the problem of global warming. The most possible scenarios of geological behavior of soil in the long term conditions has to be precisely defined to avoid catastrophic damages in the future. Chemical properties of saline water in the aquifer after the CO 2 injection becomes more acidic with time. Therefore, chemical degradation of rock occurs, which leads to modifications of its mechanical properties (chemo-mechanical coupling) [1]. In this paper an incremental model of chemo-mechanical coupling using homogenization approach (asymptotic expansion method [2,3]) is proposed. The paper is focused on the numerical computations for the X-ray tomography image of carbonate rock microstructure [4]. The chemical degradation of the microstructure is obtained as a homogeneous dissolution in each direction (Fig.1. – Fig.2.) For every porosity state numerical computations to obtain full, orthotropic elasticity tensor are performed. Therefore, the degradations functions for all components of the rigidity tensor were defined (Fig.3.). Moreover, results of numerical calculations of diffusion, tortuosity and permeability tensors are presented [5,6]. The link between geometrical properties and mechanical and transport parameters are discussed. The numerical analysis of the carbonate rock sample in long term conditions shows the increase of porosity and associated mechanical weakening of the rock. Moreover, the increase of diffusion, tortuosity and permeability tensors elements with time were observed. Finally, the solution of the one-dimensional macroscopic problem of soil settlement due to chemical dissolution of rock at constant load is presented. The method is universal, in the sense that the non-dimensional time scale is used.

Comme c'est le cas pour toute innovation technique, l'avènement de la Télévision Numérique Terrestre (TNT) en France repose sur un ensemble d'imaginaires technologiques. En effet, l'illusion techniciste se cristallise autour de la croyance collective selon laquelle la technique recélerait des vertus humanistes, à savoir, le progrès, le développement, la démocratie, la réduction des inégalités, la rencontre, l'échange, le partage, etc. La TNT est d'abord une technologie prometteuse qui performe le mode de diffusion hertzienne. Elle permet de diffuser sur un même canal hertzien de six à dix chaînes au lieu d'une seule en analogique. Elle augmente l'offre de programmes (chaînes nationales publiques et privées, chaînes locales publiques et privées) en proposant un bouquet de chaînes gratuites en qualité numérique. Ainsi, la TNT se présente comme une technologie produite avec la volonté de répondre aux attentes des utilisateurs en termes de confort visuel et sonore. Dans la perspective de l'arrêt de la diffusion hertzienne analogique, la TNT permet également d'allouer les fréquences libérées à d'autres modes de télécommunication en pleine expansion tels que la radio numérique, la télévision mobile personnelle, Internet sans fil, les télécommunications professionnelles, la téléphonie, etc.

Résumé : International audience
The tourist activity, by its international character and as a constantly expanding economic sector emerges as a means of obtaining international recognition being meanwhile an important economic sector of the national economy. In Romania case it appears as an "air breath" for an economic system in crisis and an extremely rolonged period of transition. By the dynamics, human and financial flow which it triggers, through the multiple forms which it covers, through the ability by which some thresholds (i.e. ideological or political) can impose an evolving path, tourism represents an economic sector for the countries in transition which can re-lauch or re-direct the subsequent evolution of a national economy. In ordeur to reach to these parameters a re-definition and a re-discovery of the real tourist potential is required in Romania case.

Résumé : Relict dune fields that are found as far south as 14 N in the modern-day African Sahel are testament to equatorward expansions of the Sahara desert during the Late Pleistocene. However, the discontinuous nature of dune records means that abrupt millennial-timescale climate events are not always resolved. High-resolution marine core studies have identified Heinrich stadials as the dustiest periods of the last glacial in West Africa although the spatial evolution of dust export on millennial timescales has so far not been investigated. We use the major-element composition of four high-resolution marine sediment cores to reconstruct the spatial extent of Saharan-dust versus river-sediment input to the continental margin from West Africa over the last 60 ka. This allows us to map the position of the sediment composition corresponding to the Sahara Sahel boundary. Our records indicate that the Sahara Sahel boundary reached its most southerly position (13 N) during Heinrich stadials and hence suggest that these were the periods when the sand dunes formed at 14 N on the continent. Heinrich stadials are associated with cold North Atlantic sea surface temperatures which appear to have triggered abrupt increases of aridity and wind strength in the Sahel. Our study illustrates the influence of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation on the position of the Sahara Sahel boundary and on global atmospheric dust loading.

To expand our previous studies collected in the clinically relevant DMD animal model, we decided to investigate the skeletal muscle proteome four months after systemic delivery of allogenic MuStem cells. Quantitative proteomics with isotope-coded protein labelling (ICPL) was used to compile quantitative changes in the protein expression profiles of muscle in transplanted Golden Retriever Muscular Dystrophy (GRMD) dogs as compared to GRMD dogs. A total of 492 proteins were quantified, including 25 that were overrepresented and 46 that were underrepresented after MuStem cell transplantation. Interestingly, this study demonstrates that somatic stem cell therapy impacts on the structural integrity of the muscle fascicle by acting on fibres and its connections with the extracellular matrix. We also show that cell infusion promotes protective mechanisms against oxidative stress and favours the initial phase of muscle repair. This study allows us to identify putative candidates for tissue markers that might be of great value in objectively exploring the clinical benefits resulting from our cell-based therapy for DMD.
