Résumé : National audience
se sont accrétés au cours du Mésozoïque. Ainsi, la collisionentre les blocs Indochine et Chine du Sud a engendré l’orogénèseIndosinienne. Durant la première moitié du XXè siècle, cet orogènea été défini et documenté à partir d’une discordance, dite Indosinienne,mise en évidence dans le Nord du Vietnam. Les études alorsréalisées ont permis d’estimer un âge antérieur au Jurassique inférieurpour cette discordance, qui n’a depuis pas fait l’objet deréévaluation. Outre la discordance Indosinienne, de nombreux débatsportent sur l’âge de la collision, la vergence de la subductionocéanique qui l’a précédée ou encore l’existence d’un véritable domaineocéanique ayant séparé l’Indochine de la Chine du Sud.Les bassins permo-triasiques du Nord du Vietnam (bassins deSam Nua et de Song Da), situés de part et d’autre de la sutureophiolitique de Song Ma, constituent, via le flux sédimentaireprovenant de l’érosion et du volcanisme des zones adjacentes, desarchives essentielles pour documenter l’évolution tectonique ducouple Indochine-Chine du Sud. A partir de données sédimentologiques,géochronologiques (datation U-Pb sur zircons) et biostratigraphiques(foraminifères), nous proposons une réévaluationdu cadre stratigraphique du Nord du Vietnam. Ces données nouspermettent d’envisager un âge postérieur au Trias moyen pour ladiscordance Indosinienne. A l’aide de données géochimiques et del’analyse du remplissage sédimentaire et volcanique des bassins,il est possible de documenter un volcanisme d’arc, actif au Triasinférieur. La position de cet arc par rapport aux limites des blocsIndochine et Chine du Sud, marquée par la suture ophiolitique deSong Ma, implique (i) une zone de subduction qui plongeait vers leSud (coordonnées actuelles), sous le bloc Indochine, en marge (ii)d’un véritable domaine océanique, et non pas d’une croûte continentaleamincie, séparant les deux blocs jusqu’au Trias moyen.Nos interprétations, issues de l’analyse des bassins sédimentairespermo-triasiques du Nord Vietnam, permettent également de reconstituerl’évolution de l’orogénèse Indosinienne. Celle-ci faitsuite à la subduction de la croûte océanique rattachée à une plaqueChine du Sud sous une plaque Indochine au Trias inférieur (etprobablement au moins depuis le Permien inférieur). A partir dela fin du Trias moyen, les blocs Indochine et Chine du Sud entrenten collision et forment l’orogène Indosinienne.

Résumé : International audience
The core of South East Asia is composed of a mosaic of continental blocks, among which the Indochina and theSouth China blocks (present day northern Vietnam), amalgamated during the Permian and/or the Triassic. LatePermian to Late Triassic geodynamic evolution of these two blocks remains controversial. The main discussionpoints concern the existence and the closure of an oceanic domain separating the Indochina and the South Chinablocks during this period. Especially, the polarity and the timing of the subduction zone that led to the collisionbetween the blocks as well as the present location of the suture delimiting them are a matter of debate. Despite thevaluable information they can provide, the sedimentary basins from northern Vietnam have been neglected in theprevious studies dealing with the geodynamic evolution of South East Asia.To determine the geodynamic evolution of the area, the basins of Sam Nua and Song Da, presently locatedin North Vietnam, have been investigated using a combined approach involving sedimentology, geochronology(U-Pb/zircon) and geochemistry (whole-rock major and trace elements composition of both volcanic and volcaniclasticrocks). The palaeoenvironment evolution, the main unconformities, their age and the tectonic affinitiesof the interbedded volcanic and volcaniclastics series have been characterized for these two basins. Our resultsdemonstrate (i) that the Song Da Basin exhibits a palaeogeographic affinity with the South China block, (ii) theoccurrence of extensive calk-alkaline volcanism and associated volcaniclastic deposits in the Sam Nua Basin,related to the existence of an active magmatic arc during the Early and the lower Middle Triassic, (iii) a Southdipping (present day coordinate) oceanic lithosphere beneath the Indochina block, deduced from the location ofthe magmatic arc south of the potential suture zones, (iv) that an angular unconformity postdates the lower MiddleTriassic volcaniclastic deposits in the Sam Nua basin. This unconformity, crosscutting the subduction relateddeposits, is interpreted as the result of the collision between the Indochina and the South China blocks.

Résumé : International audience
Sedimentary basins, through the sedimentary successions and the nature of the deposits, reflect the geology of thearea from which the sediments were derived and thus provide valuable record of hinterland tectonism. As the collisionbetween the South China and the Indochina blocks (i.e. the Indosinian orogeny) is still the object of a numberof controversies regarding, for instance, its timing and the polarity of the subduction, the sedimentary basins associatedwith this mountain belt are likely to provide clues to reconstruct its geodynamic evolution. However, boththe Sam Nua Basin (located to the south of the inner zones of the Indosinian orogeny and the Song Ma ophiolites)and the Song Da Basin (located to the north of the inner zones), northern Vietnam, are still lacking importantinformation regarding the depositional environments and the ages of the main formations that they contain.Using sedimentological and dating analyses (foraminifers biostratigraphy and U-Pb dating on detrital zircon), weprovide a new stratigraphic framework for these basins and propose a geodynamic evolution of the present-daynorthern Vietnam.During the Early Triassic, the Sam Nua Basin was mainly supplied by volcaniclastic sediments originating froman active volcanic activity. Geochemical investigations, combined with sedimentological and structural analyses,support an arc-related setting for this magmatism. This magmatic arc resulted from the subduction of a south dippingoceanic slab that once separated the South China from the Indochina blocks. During the Middle to the LateTriassic, the Sam Nua Basin underwent erosion that lead to the formation of a major unconformity, termed theIndosinian unconformity. This unconformity is interpreted to result from the erosion of the Indosinian mountainbelt, built after the continental collision between the South China and the Indochina blocks. Later, during the LateTriassic, the Sam Nua Basin experienced the deposition of very coarse material, emplaced under continental settingand representing the product of the erosion of the Indosinian mountain belt.To the North, the Song Da Basin is characterized by strongly diachronous deposits over a basal unconformitydeveloped at the expense of volcanic and volcaniclastic deposits related to the Emeishan Large Igneous Province.The sedimentary succession indicates a foreland setting during the Early to the Middle Triassic, which contrastswith the commonly assumed rift setting for these sediments. Thus, the Song Da Basin documents the formation ofthe Indosinian thrust belt, located immediately to the South of the basin.

Résumé : International audience
In 2008 we published the first set of guidelines for standardizing research in autophagy. Since then, research on this topic has continued to accelerate, and many new scientists have entered the field. Our knowledge base and relevant new technologies have also been expanding. Accordingly, it is important to update these guidelines for monitoring autophagy in different organisms. Various reviews have described the range of assays that have been used for this purpose. Nevertheless, there continues to be confusion regarding acceptable methods to measure autophagy, especially in multicellular eukaryotes. A key point that needs to be emphasized is that there is a difference between measurements that monitor the numbers or volume of autophagic elements (e.g., autophagosomes or autolysosomes) at any stage of the autophagic process vs. those that measure flux through the autophagy pathway (i.e., the complete process); thus, a block in macroautophagy that results in autophagosome accumulation needs to be differentiated from stimuli that result in increased autophagic activity, defined as increased autophagy induction coupled with increased delivery to, and degradation within, lysosomes (in most higher eukaryotes and some protists such as Dictyostelium) or the vacuole (in plants and fungi). In other words, it is especially important that investigators new to the field understand that the appearance of more autophagosomes does not necessarily equate with more autophagy. In fact, in many cases, autophagosomes accumulate because of a block in trafficking to lysosomes without a concomitant change in autophagosome biogenesis, whereas an increase in autolysosomes may reflect a reduction in degradative activity. Here, we present a set of guidelines for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macroautophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes. These guidelines are not meant to be a formulaic set of rules, because the appropriate assays depend in part on the question being asked and the system being used. In addition, we emphasize that no individual assay is guaranteed to be the most appropriate one in every situation, and we strongly recommend the use of multiple assays to monitor autophagy. In these guidelines, we consider these various methods of assessing autophagy and what information can, or cannot, be obtained from them. Finally, by discussing the merits and limits of particular autophagy assays, we hope to encourage technical innovation in the field.
