There is an increasing interest in the intestinal microbiota as a critical regulator of the development and function of the immune, nervous, and endocrine systems. Experimental work in animal models has provided the foundation for clinical studies to investigate associations between microbiota composition and function and human disease, including m...

Aphids are emerging as model organisms for both basic and applied research. Of the 5,000 estimated species, only three aphids have published whole genome sequences: the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum, the Russian wheat aphid, Diuraphis noxia, and the green peach aphid, Myzus persicae. We present the whole genome sequence of a fourth aphid, the soybe...

We present an original method to de novo call variants for Restriction site associated DNA Sequencing (RAD-Seq). RAD-Seq is a technique characterized by the sequencing of specific loci along the genome, that is widely employed in the field of evolutionary biology since it allows to exploit variants (mainly SNPs) information from entire populations ...

DNA sequencing technologies have tremendously increased their throughput, and hence complicated DNA assembly. Numerous assembly programs use de Bruijn graphs (dBG) built from short reads to merge these into contigs, which represent putative DNA segments. In a dBG of order k, nodes are substrings of length k of reads (or k-mers), while arcs are thei...

Gene tree/species tree reconciliation is a recent decisive progress in phylogenetic methods, accounting for the possible differences between gene histories and species histories. Reconciliation consists in explaining these differences by gene-scale events such as duplication, loss, transfer, which translates mathematically into a mapping between ge...

The Routing and Spectrum Assignment problem in Flexgrid Elastic Optical Networks can be modeled in two phases: a selection of paths in the network and an interval coloring problem in the edge-intersection graph of these paths. The interval chromatic number equals the smallest size of a spectrum such that a proper interval coloring is possible, the ...

Gestational methyl donor (especially B9 and B12 vitamins) deficiency is involved in birth defects and brain development retardation. The underlying molecular mechanisms that are dysregulated still remain poorly understood, in particular in the cerebellum. As evidenced from previous data, females are more affected than males. In this study, we there...

The understanding of ecosystem services is essential to support sustainable use and preservation of ecosystems. Coralligenous habitats, main contributors of the Mediterranean marine biodiversity, are yet understudied in term of services provided. This study presents an original small-scale approach to investigate the services provided by coralligen...
