Abstract:
Temperature is arguably the leading factor that drives adaptation of organisms and ecosystems. Remarkably, many sister species share the same habitat because of their different temporal or micro-spatial thermal adaptation. In this PhD, the underlying molecular mechanisms of the adaptation of closely related species to different temperatures are sought. A thermodynamic analysis was applied to a genome-scale metabolic model of S. cerevisiae at warm and cold temperatures to identify thermo-dependent reactions. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis of predicted cold-dependent reactions found that redox reac

Abstract:
Agricultural production is vulnerable to climate change. However, this vulnerability can be reduced by adapting food crops to a hotter climate. Many studies have ignored adaptation when quantifying the effect of climate change on crop yield, which has likely overestimated yield losses. Therefore, it is necessary to quantify agriculture's adaptive potential to climate change. Such work is challenging because there are no historical analogues to current or future warming. In place of such a precedent this work explores the varying sensitivity of maize yield to elevated temperatures through a sui

Endothermic homeothermy is a major feature of the adaptive suites of tachymetabolic animals such as mammals and birds. The advantages homeothermy confers on birds and mammals include relative independence from the environment, a stable internal milieu, and possibly the ability to sustain high aerobic activity (Bennett and Ruben 1979). Some mammals in situations of limited water or energy availability, however, depart markedly from homeothermy and instead display patterns of heterothermy.

Influenza B viruses are a significant cause of disease and influenza B antigens are present in all human vaccines. Achieving suitable yields of seed viruses is often difficult for vaccine manufacturers.

However, reassortment of influenza B viruses for the preparation of seeds has not been usually undertaken due to the lack suitable donor strains.

Abstract:
Le loup ou bar européen effectue une partie de son cycle de vie dans les lagunes et estuaires, des eaux de transitions caractérisées par des fluctuations environnementales plus marquées qu’en milieu marin. Les mécanismes d’acclimatation à la salinité à des températures plus élevées qu’en milieu marin sont encore relativement inexplorés. Dans cette étude, des juvéniles de loup ont été préacclimatés pendant deux semaines à l’eau de mer (EM) à 18 °C (eau tempérée) ou à 24 °C (eau chaude) puis transférés soit dans l’eau douce (ED) soit dans l’EM aux deux températures testées. À 24 °C, les loups pa

Abstract:
Les écosystèmes côtiers sont parmi les plus vulnérables aux changements globaux actuels, qui entraînent notamment une augmentation de la température de l'eau, ainsi que de la fréquence des épisodes hypoxiques. La coquille Saint-Jacques, Pecten maximus, est une espèce subtidale évoluant à des profondeurs de 2 à 210 m. Malgré son intérêt commercial et un intérêt écologique majeur, cette espèce n'a fait l'objet que de peu d'études au niveau moléculaire. L'objectif de cette thèse était de caractériser les mécanismes moléculaires régissant l'acclimatation de cette espèce aux contraintes thermique e

Ce travail a pour objet l'etude du comportement electrochimique de materiaux industriels confrontes a un environnement aqueux a temperature et pression elevees. Il traite notamment du nickel, de ses alliages utilises dans les generateurs de vapeur et du titane, employe, par exemple, dans les evaporateurs. L'utilisation des methodes electrochimiques dans ces conditions particulieres a conduit a la realisation de deux dispositifs specifiques capables, par les solutions techniques adoptees (inertie chimique des autoclaves, exploitation d'une reference interne: electrode dynamique a hydrogene, ele

Abstract:
Les picocyanobactéries marines sont les plus petits organismes photosynthétiques, mais aussi les plus abondants sur Terre, assurant près de 20% de la production primaire océanique. Parmi elles, les Synechococcus marins présentent une large distribution latitudinale qui peut s’expliquer par la spécialisation physiologique de lignées phylogénétiques le long du gradient latitudinal de température du globe (i.e. écotypes de température). Pour ces cellules phototrophes, la régulation de la fluidité des membranes, où se situent les complexes photosynthétiques, est absolument essentielle pour la surv

Abstract:
Global climate change is anticipated to raise the overall temperatures and is likely to increase future mortality attributable to heat. Predicting future health consequences of higher temperatures at the regional, national and global level based on historical temperature-mortality relationships can be challenging due in part to the uncertainties in the location-specific temperature-mortality relationship, the heat threshold, and how populations will adapt or acclimatize. This study reviews published estimates of the warm season temperature-mortality relationships around the world and explores

Vulcões ativos na Antártica contrastam com a paisagem predominantemente gelada do continente. Eles fornecem condições únicas capazes de selecionar uma grande variedade de adaptações microbianas. A Ilha Deception localiza-se na região da Península Antártica e difere de outros vulcões antárticos especialmente pela influência marinha e temperaturas mais elevadas. Foram coletadas amostras de sedimentos associados a fumarolas e geleiras em dois sítios geotermais de Deception, com temperaturas variando entre 0°C a 98°C.

Cette étude s'intéresse aux effets de la température sur le développement de la canne à sucre et le potentiel d'expansion de cette culture au sein de nouvelles zones géographiques. En particulier, elle vise à caractériser les stades de développement de la plante durant lesquels les basses températures agissent afin d'extrapoler des zones géographiques d'adaptation. Un travail plus particulier est engagé sur l'effet des basses températures en condition d'altitude tropicales dans Les Hauts de La Réunion.
