Adaptation des températures élevées du champignon de Paris Agaricus bisporus / Adaptation of the white button mushroom Agaricus bisporus for fruiting at high temperature

Navarro Rodriguez, Ana Marίa del Pilar 10 July 2014 (has links)
Cette recherche a été focalisée sur l’étude de la variabilité génétique et des mécanismes associés à une adaptation d’A. bisporus à la culture dans des conditions subtropicales. Elle a été subdivisée en trois parties : 1- identification de la diversité de l’aptitude à fructifier à haute température (FHT+) dans un échantillon de souches sauvages collectées dans plusieurs localités de pays d’Amérique du Nord et d’Europe. Dans cet ensemble nous avons inclus des représentants des trois variétés d’Agaricus à savoir: les variétés bisporus, burnettii et eurotetrasporus; 2- la caractérisation d’un gène candidat de thermo-tolérance dans des souches FHT+ et FHT- et l’identification de son implication dans le caractère FHT+; 3- l’étude du déterminisme génétique du caractère FHT+. Toutes les souches de la variété burnettii sont capables de produire des champignons avec de forts rendements à haute température. Cette aptitude est un élément de leur adaptation aux conditions climatiques rencontrée par la population originale. Seulement quelques souches d’A. bisporus var. bisporus ont révélés un bon potentiel pour fructifier à 25°C, mais sans relation avec les conditions climatiques de leur zone d’origine. Le gène étudié n’était que légèrement impliqué dans la réaction au stress thermique. Nous l’avons renommé aap1 car nous avons montré qu’il appartient à une nouvelle sous-famille des homologues du gène YAP1 de levure. Il n’est pas un contributeur dominant pour la thermo-tolérance d’A. bisporus, mais la protéine qu’il code peut être impliquée comme facteur de transcription de résistance générale au stress. En fait le caractère FHT+ est un caractère quantitatif sous contrôle polygénique. Il peut être hérité d’un parent de la variété burnetti dans une descendance inter variétale. Au cours de ce travail, des souches d’A. bisporus possédant des potentiels intéressants pour la culture en conditions subtropicales ont été identifiées et les bases génétiques pour un programme de création variétale pour introduire ces caractères dans des souches déjà cultivées ont été identifiées. / This work focused mainly on studying genetic variability andmechanisms associated with an adaptation of Agaricus bisporus for cultivation undersubtropical conditions of Mexico. The research was divided into three parts: 1-Identification of the diversity for fructification at a high temperature (FHT+) in a pool ofwild strains gathered in numerous locations of North America and Europe andrepresentative of the three varieties known in the species: bisporus, burnettii y eurotetrasporus; 2- characterization of a candidate gene of thermo-tolerance in FHT+ and FHT- strains and identification of its involvement in the FHT+ trait; 3- studies on the genetic determinism of FHT+ trait. All the strains of A. bisporus var burnettii produced mature sporophores at high temperatures with high yields. This ability is a part of the adaptation to the climatic conditions faced by the original population. For the A. bisporus var bisporus only some strains expressed the FHT+ trait and very few produced significant yield at high temperatures. There was no correlation with the geographical origin of the strains. The candidate gene studied was only weakly involved in the FHT+ trait. This study allowed a better characterization of one of the genes. We renamed it aap1 because it belongs to a new sub-family of counterparts of the gene YAP1 of yeast. It is not a dominant contributor to the thermo-tolerance of A. bisporus, but the protein that it encodes can be involved as a factor in transcription of general resistance to stress. Actually FHT+ was shown to be a quantitative trait under polygenic control, and it can be inherited from the A. bisporus var. burnettii in an intervarietal progeny. Strains of A. bisporus with interesting potential for cultivation under subtropical conditions and genetic bases of breeding programs for introducing this potential in already cultivated strains had been identified.

Avaliação das doses efetivas e efetivas coletivas da radiação natural na região de Ribeirão Preto (SP) / Effective Dose and Collective Effective Dose Evaluation from Natural Radiation in the Region of Ribeirão Preto (SP)

Cavalcante, Fernanda 29 March 2012 (has links)
Medidas da radiação gama ambiental foram feitas em algumas regiões da cidade de Ribeirão Preto-SP, de forma a contribuir para o conhecimento acerca dos níveis desse tipo de radiação no estado de São Paulo e no território brasileiro. Escolheu-se determinar as médias anuais de dose efetiva e dose efetiva coletiva, uma vez que estas grandezas levam em conta o risco de possíveis efeitos biológicos associados a exposição à radiação ionizante. Para determinar os valores dessas grandezas, os diversos setores censitários das regiões selecionadas foram mapeados e avaliados individualmente, de acordo com a taxa de dose média absorvida no ar e número de habitantes de cada setor. Utilizou-se um sistema de detecção da radiação gama baseado em cintilador plástico e GPS, que possibilitaram a medida da taxa de dose absorvida no ar a cada segundo, para as coordenadas geográficas selecionadas. Embora este sistema tenha sido desenvolvido para a detecção de fontes artificiais perdidas, ou seja, não tem o objetivo principal de fazer medidas dosimétricas da radiação gama natural, teve seus modos de leitura calibrados e comparados com resultados da literatura (com uma incerteza média de 8,7 %). Dos resultados obtidos, dos mapeamentos realizados nas regiões consideradas, as médias anuais da dose efetiva e dose efetiva coletiva para ambientes ao ar livre foram encontradas com os valores 0,034 ± 0,004 mSv/ano e 25,62 ± 9,25 homem.mSv/ano respectivamente, sendo a primeira cerca da metade da média mundial da dose efetiva recomendada pela UNSCEAR. As médias obtidas são baixas quando comparadas às encontradas em outros estudos sobre dose de radiação gama ao ar livre no estado de São Paulo e em outras regiões do território brasileiro (sendo, de 1,7 até 5,6 vezes menor). / Gamma environmental radiation measurements were done for some urban regions in the city of Ribeirão Preto-SP, in order to contribute with this knowledge on the annual ambiental values of this type of radiation in the São Paulo state and in the Brazilian territory. The quantities chosen were effective dose and effective collective dose, once they take into account the possible biologic damage related to the ionizing radiation energy absorbed. For the assessments of these quantities, selected census sectors were initially mapped out, regarding their average absorbed dose in air and the number of inhabitants living in each one of the sectors. The detector system used is based on an organic plastic scintillator and a GPS, that allows to obtain the absorbed dose rate for each second and their respective geographic coordinates. Even though this system was developed to detect missing artificial gamma sources, in other words, its main function is not for dosimetric measurements, both display modes were calibrated in exposure rate (R/h) and absorbed dose rate (Gy/h) and their readings were compared to results from the literature (with an average uncertainty of 8.7%). From the mapping results of the selected regions, the annual average effective dose and effective collective dose for outdoor environments were obtained, respectively as 0.034 ± 0.004 mSv/year and 25.62 ± 9.25 man.mSv/year. The value for the first average dose is lower (about half) than the worldwide average value published by the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR), also lower than the values from other regions in the national territory, regarding the gamma dose rate in outdoor environments (from 1.7 up to 5.6 times lower).
