A typical middle-class home ; The Bryant Slides Collection ; The Bryant Slides Collection, Cuba Auteur(s) : Unknown ( Photographer ) Résumé : The slides were taken on collecting trips sponsored by the William L. Bryant Foundation, where books, music and art indigenous to the regions were gathered. The are organized by geographical location. This photograph is of a typical middle-class home in Camaguey. The large earthen jars in front of the home is very popular in the region and is called a tinajóne. The tinajóns were first used to store grains, wines, and oils brought to Cuba by Spanish immigrants that settled in the area in the 1700s. The permanent lack of water of the first settlements changed the function of the tinajones from the traditional use to serving as water storage containers. It is popularly believed that during the 19th century, every single house in Camaguey used to have at least one tinajon. The water being stored was used for drinking and to cooking.

Marqueurs microsatellites chez l'huître plate Ostrea edulis l. : caractérisation et applications à un programme de sélection pour une résistance au parasite Bonamia ostreae et à l'etude de populations naturelles Auteur(s) : Launey, Sophie Éditeur(s) : Institut national agronomique Paris Grignon Résumé : The flat oyster Ostrea edulis L. is the indigenous oyster of the Atlantic as well as the Mediterranean coasts of Europe. Its commercial exploitation dates back to Antiquity but its breeding is now threatened by two parasitic protozoa, among which Bonamia ostreae. Various aspects of the genetics of this species' natural and farmed populations have been studied with the aid of microsatellite markers. At first, the implementation and the screening of two partial genomic libraries made it possible to identify 28 new microsatellite loci. Analysis of the segregation of 12 of these loci and of two enzymatic loci shows that most microsatellite loci are transmitted in a Mendelian way, but some loci have significant segregation distortions. Moreover, seven linkage groups, of which four contain at least two markers, were identified in Ostrea edulis. The genetic variability of three populations selected for one or two generations for resistance to Bonamia ostreae was analysed with the aid of 5 microsatellite loci. In spite of the absence of genealogical data, we have shown that these selected populations were descended from a very low number of founding genitors (from 3 to 15 depending on the population) and for two populations, we were able to reconstruct the genealogy and the relationships between the individuals were identified. These selected populations have, in addition to a very low genetic variability, real and at times high levels of consanguinity. These results have a significant implication for the continuation of the selection programme (consanguinity management, augmentation of genetic variability by introducing wild genitors). The geographical structuring of the genetic variability of natural populations of Ostrea edulis has been analysed with the aid of 5 microsatellite loci on a sampling covering almost the entire distribution area of the species (from Norway to the Adriatic Sea). The results are consistent with those published in the literature and using enzymatic markers. The populations show a low level of differentiation that could correspond to a model of isolation by distance. The Atlantic populations, which have a reduced polymorphism, could be descended from post-glacial recolonisation from Mediterranean populations that had survived the glaciations of the Quaternary Period. The current distribution of flat oyster populations is surely also subject to anthropogenic activities. Finally, the genetic bases of the heterozygosis-growth correlation were studied in a natural population with the aid of enzymatic and microsatellite markers. Although leads favouring the direct contribution of enzymatic loci have been found, biases in the sampling design make it impossible to come to a formal conclusion. However, this study has made it possible to show that the capture of individuals over a short period (around ten days) leads to a sampling of a population descended from a very low number of founding genitors, in contradiction with the generally accepted idea that marine bivalve populations are large panmictic populations with significant, efficient numbers. These results confirm in a natural population the observations of a significant reduction of efficient sizes in hatchery populations. L'huître plate Ostrea edulis L. est l'huître indigène des côtes européennes aussi bien atlantiques que méditerranéennes. Son exploitation commerciale remonte à l'Antiquité mais son élevage est aujourd'hui menacé par deux protozoaires parasites dont Bonamia ostreae. Différents aspects de la génétique des populations naturelles et cultivées de cette espèce ont été étudiés à l'aide de marqueurs microsatellites. Dans un premier temps, la réalisation et le criblage de deux banques génomiques partielles ont permis l'identification de 28 nouveaux locus microsatellites. L'analyse de la ségrégation de 12 de ces locus et de deux locus enzymatiques montre que la plupart des locus microsatellites sont transmis de façon mendélienne, mais certains locus présentent des distorsions de ségrégation importantes. Par ailleurs, sept groupes de liaison dont quatre contiennent au moins deux marqueurs ont été identifiés chez Ostrea edulis. La variabilité génétique de trois populations sélectionnées depuis une ou deux générations pour une résistance à Bonamia ostreae a été analysée à l'aide de 5 locus microsatellites. Malgré l'absence de données généalogiques, nous avons montré que ces populations sélectionnées étaient issues d'un très faible nombre de géniteurs fondateurs (de 3 à 15 selon les populations) et pour deux populations, la généalogie a pu être reconstituée et les liens de parenté entre les individus ont été identifiés. Ces populations sélectionnées présentent, outre une très faible variabilité génétique, des niveaux de consanguinité réels et parfois élevés. Ces résultats ont une implication importante pour la continuation du programme de sélection (gestion de la consanguinité, augmentation de la variabilité génétique par introduction de géniteurs sauvages). La structuration géographique de la variabilité génétique des populations naturelles d'Ostrea edulis a été analysée à l'aide de 5 locus microsatellites sur un échantillonnage couvrant presque toute l'aire de répartition de l'espèce (de la Norvège à la Mer Adriatique). Les résultats sont cohérents avec ceux publiés dans la littérature et utilisant des marqueurs enzymatiques. Les populations montrent un niveau de différenciation faible qui pourrait correspondre à un modèle d'isolement par la distance. Les populations atlantiques, qui présentent un polymorphisme réduit, pourraient être issues de recolonisation post-glaciaire à partir de populations méditerranéennes ayant survécu aux glaciations du Quaternaire. La répartition actuelle des populations d'huître plate est certainement aussi soumise aux actions anthropiques. Enfin, les bases génétiques de la corrélation hétérozygotie-croissance ont été étudiées dans une population naturelle à l'aide de marqueurs enzymatiques et microsatellites. Bien que des pistes en faveur de la contribution directe des locus enzymatiques aient été trouvées, des biais dans le dispositif expérimental ne permettent pas de conclure de façon formelle. Cependant, cette étude a permis de montrer que le captage d'individus sur une faible période (une dizaine de jours) conduit à l'échantillonnage d'une population issue d'un nombre très réduit de géniteurs fondateurs, en contradiction avec l'idée reçue que les populations de bivalves marins sont de larges populations panmictiques à effectif efficace important. Ces résultats confirment dans une population naturelle les observations de réduction importante des tailles efficaces dans des populations d'écloserie.

Inventaire des plantes introduites en Méditerranée : origines et répercussions sur l'environnement et les activités humaines Auteur(s) : Verlaque, M Éditeur(s) : Gauthier-Villars Résumé : This review addresses the problem of recently introduced plants in the Mediterranean in order to analyse their vectors, the dispersal processes and the possible ecological and economic consequences. Ninety-five cases (94 macroscopic algae and one seagrass) are listed and discussed. Three major routes of access into the Mediterranean are indicated: shipping, the Suez canal and aqua-culture. The recent introduction of Caulerpa taxifolia along our coasts has called attention to a new potential source: aquaria. Among the successful acclimatizations, cold-temperate Pacific and Atlantic species remain confined to the north of the Mediterranean (Gulf of Lions, Adriatic), whereas some tropical or sub-tropical plants colonize large areas. Some introduced algae proliferate to the detriment of the indigenous Mediterranean vegetation. In contrast with some terrestrial introductions, no population crash has been observed in the Mediterranean, although some notable fluctuations seem to occur in coastal lagoons. From an economic point of view, the two activities most affected by this phenomenon are aquaculture and fishing. With the gradual disappearance of European frontiers, the worldwide development of marine cultures and the multiplication of giant Seaworlds, the transfer of live marine organisms will become routine and the risk of new introductions will considerably increase in the Mediterranean. Only international legislation, established by the countries of the littoral, will be able to control these problems.
