Bioprospection of sulfate-reducers and metal-reducers from acidic and alkaline sites: biotechnological applications for the treatment of metal and metalloid containing wastes – BIOMETAL
All over the world there is a crescent interest for clean technologies as microbial-based remediation and treatment processes. These technologies can be applied to metal and metalloid contaminations that can be a source of metal inputs for surface and groundwaters. Nevertheless, one of the features
Taiwan France : Marine diversity exploration and evolution of Deep-Sea Fauna – TFDeepEvo
During the few last decades, the exploration of marine environments has brought out the most spectacular taxonomic discoveries but many gaps remain in basic knowledge of marine biodiversity. The aim of the present proposal is to enhance the scientific developments of the exploration of the marine bi
Interactions between POllution and Climate changes: Development of an improved monitoring strategy – IPOC
Heavy anthropogenic pressure (pollution, climate warming) on continental and marine aquatic ecosystems needs that their health status could be established, considering the great amount of incomes brought to waterside human activities. This project aims to provide both scientists and environment mana
Evaluation of the virulence of RHDV and mechanisms of host resistance – CALILAGO
Rabbit haemorrhagic Disease Virus (RHDV) is a highly lethal pathogen of the calicivirus family that emerged in the 1980s causing dramatic mortalities in rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and locally threatening other species that depend on rabbits for survival. The origin and evolution of RHDV are not
Hybridisation, adaptation and historical demography: a genomic apporach. – HybridAdapt
Patterns if Interindividual of genetic variation observed in a species contain some clues about its past demography and the action of natural selection (positive and negative), which advanced statistical analyses can reveal. They thus inform us about the determinants of evolution, namely of the part
Evolution of sex allocation strategies in the spidermite Tetranychus urticae, a major crop pest – EVOLSEXALLLOC
Sex ratio (number of males / number of females) of spider mites is in general 1:3. We want to understand it and increase it to 1:1, without using pestides, to which spider mites are often resistant. As population growth is usually due to females, our project should lead to decrease the growth of po
