The aim of this thesis is the study of the genetic substance of the important domestication sign pod dehiscence. Two types of pea were analyzed, with indehiscence pods JI92 (Pisum sativum subsp. sativum) and wild field pea with dehiscent pods JI64. (Pisum sativum subsp. elatius). By reciprocal crossbreeding of these two lines, were created recombinant inbred lines (RILs), of a total of 134 RILs lines were selected with 9 contrast lines. We utilized the massive parallel sequencing of the 3'ends of the cDNA, obtained by reverse transcription of mRNA isolated from the seam. Thanks to this method, 3 candidate genes were generated. Subsequently, we determined the expression of these three candidate genes for the using quantitative Real-Time PCR (RT-qPCR). Amplification curves and Ct values generated from the RT-qPCR were subsequently used to generate graphs to show the degree of expression of the candidate genes. The most suitable candidate was the Ps15 gene, which is present in LGIII in the Dpo1 region, and therefore could be responsible for pod dehiscence.

It occurs in the chloroplasts of leaf mesophyll cells and consists of two steps, a photochemical phase that converts light energy into chemical energy, and other biochemical phase, which uses the energy of the first step for fixing CO2. The study aimed to evaluate, in detached leaves of pea (Pisum sativum L.), the behavior of the electron transport chain in the presence of inhibitors of specific points. The plants were grown in a greenhouse. Two to four weeks after sowing, when the leaves had become fully expanded, they were detached and the petioles were immersed in solutions containing 0, 25, 50, 100, 250, and 500 μM of DCMU, atrazine, DBMIB and methyl viologen. To DCMU, atrazine and methyl viologen the leaves remained for 2 h in contact with the solutions, to DBMIB was 5h. Measurements of transient fluorescence of chlorophyll, delayed fluorescence and modulated reflection at 820nm were made using M-PEA fluorometer. The leaves were dark adapted for 30 minutes, before a saturating pulse emission, and the fluorescence intensities were measured for 60 seconds. Pea leaves treated with 500 μM concentration of DCMU and atrazine showed to be sensitive to this dose of inhibitors, in analyzing the results of transient fluorescence, delayed fluorescence and modulated reflection at 820 nm. The leaves treated with 500 μM of methyl viologen showed differences in parameters related to the mechanism of action of the inhibitor.The same concentration used to DBMIB, had no significant difference in many results compared to the control, only in those involved in the reduction of end acceptors of photosystem I. Therefore, a detailed analysis of the transient fluorescence, delayed fluorescence and modulated reflection at 820nm, allows us to collect and correlate a series of information about the whole electron transport chain. / A fotossíntese exerce um papel fundamental para os processos de crescimento e desenvolvimento das plantas. Ela ocorre nos cloroplastos das células do mesofilo foliar e consiste de duas etapas, uma fase fotoquímica, que converte energia luminosa em energia química e outra fase bioquímica, que utiliza a energia da primeira etapa pra a fixação do CO2. O trabalho teve como objetivo avaliar, em folhas destacadas de ervilha (Pisum sativum L.), o comportamento da cadeia de transporte de elétrons na presença de inibidores de pontos específicos. As plantas foram cultivadas em casa de vegetação. Duas a quatro semanas após semeadura, quando as folhas apresentavam-se completamente expandidas, elas foram destacadas e os pecíolos foram imersos em soluções contendo 0, 25, 50, 100, 250 e 500 μM de DCMU, atrazina, DBMIB e metil viologênio. Para DCMU, atrazina e metil viologênio as folhas permaneceram por 2h em contato com as soluções, para o DBMIB foi de 5h. As medidas da fluorescência transiente da clorofila, da decaída de fluorescência e da reflexão modulada à 820nm, foram feitas utilizando fluorômetro M-PEA. As folhas foram adaptadas ao escuro por 30 minutos, antes da emissão de um pulso saturante, e as intensidades de fluorescência foram medidas por 60 segundos. As folhas de ervilha tratadas com a concentração de 500 μM de DCMU e atrazina demonstraram ser sensíveis a essa dose dos inibidores, ao analisar os resultados da fluorescência transiente, decaída de fluorescência e da reflexão modulada a 820 nm. As folhas tratadas com 500 μM de metil viologênio apresentaram diferenças nos parâmetros relacionados com o mecanismo de ação do inibidor. A mesma concentração utilizada para DBMIB, não teve diferença em muitos resultados em relação ao controle, apenas naqueles envolvidos com a redução dos aceptores finais do fotossistema I. Dessa maneira, uma análise detalhada da fluorescência transiente, da decaída da fluorescência e da reflexão modulada a 820 nm, permite coletar e correlacionar uma série de informações sobre toda a cadeia de transporte de elétrons.

La connaissance des effets et modes d’action des QTL (Quantitative Trait Loci) de résistance des plantes aux maladies est un enjeu majeur pour l’exploitation durable des résistances génétiques en agriculture. Dans le pathosystème pois/Aphanomyces euteiches, présentant une importance économique majeure, l’objectif de la thèse a consisté à valider les effets de QTL de résistance, seuls ou en combinaison, et à connaitre leurs modes d’action sur les étapes du cycle de l’agent pathogène. Un total de 157 NILs (Near Isogenic Lines) de pois issues d’un programme de Back-cross Assisté par Marqueurs, porteuses d’aucun, un, deux ou trois des sept principaux QTL de résistance préalablement identifiés, a été génotypé à l’aide d’une puce 15K SNPs et évalué pour la résistance. Les NILs porteuses de QTL à effets majeurs, seuls ou en combinaison avec des QTL à effets mineurs,ont présenté des niveaux accrus de résistance partielle en conditions contrôlées et au champ par rapport aux NILs dépourvues de QTL, dans différents fonds génétiques. Certaines NILs comportant des QTL individuels ou combinés à effets mineurs ont également montré un niveau réduit de sévérité de la maladie dans l’une ou les deux conditions de test. La plupart des QTL a présenté des effets significatifs sur le ralentissement de l’infection et/ou de la quantité d’ADN pathogène ayant colonisé la racine pendant sept jours après inoculation. Cette thèse fournit des outils et éléments de choix de QTL à combiner en sélection pour augmenter l’efficacité de la résistance partielle à A. euteiches dans les futures variétés de pois / Knowledge of the effects and action modes of resistance QTL to plant diseases is a major challenge for the durable use of genetic resistances in agriculture. In the pea/Aphanomyces euteiches pathosystem, which has a major economic importance, the aim of this study was to validate the single or combined effects of main resistance QTL, and study their action modes on steps of the pathogen life cycle. A total of 157 pea NILs (Near Isogenic Lines) created by Marker-Assisted Back-crossing and carrying no, one, two or three of the seven main resistance QTL previously identified, was genotyped using a 15K SNPs array and evaluated for resistance. The NILs carrying major-effect QTL, individually or in combination with minor-effect QTL, had increased levels of partial resistance in controlledconditions and in the field compared to NILs without QTL, in different genetic backgrounds. Several NILs carrying single or multiple minor-effect QTL also showed reduced levels of disease severity in one or the two test conditions. Most of the QTL had significant effects on slowing down infection and/or pathogen DNA quantity which had colonized the root for seven days after inoculation. This study gives tools and information for the choice of resistance QTL to use in pyramiding breeding strategies for increasing partial levels of resistance to A. euteiches in future pea varieties.

Les plantes cultivées peuvent modifier la disponibilité en ressources et les perturbations perçues par les communautés d’organismes présentes dans les agroécosystèmes et en conséquence, influencer les fonctions écosystémiques utiles à la production agricole telles que la minéralisation de N et de S ou la compétition culture-adventices. Notre objectif était d’évaluer l’effet du pois (Pisum sativum L.), introduit dans une succession de cultures, sur les communautés d’adventices et les communautés microbiennes impliquées dans la minéralisation de N et S. Pour ce faire, nous avons mené des expérimentations en conditions contrôlées et utilisé les données d’une expérimentation au champ conduite pendant 5 ans. En conditions contrôlées, nous avons montré que le pois influence via ses traits racinaires certaines activités enzymatiques liées à la minéralisation de N. En revanche au champ, les variables climatiques influencent principalement le fonctionnement des communautés microbiennes impliquées dans la minéralisation de N et S. Par ailleurs, nous avons observé que le pois sélectionnait des communautés d’adventices fonctionnellement différentes de celles d’autres cultures, comme le colza, mais cet effet du pois ne persistait pas sous la culture suivante. En conclusion, les effets du pois sur les communautés microbiennes impliquées dans la minéralisation de N et S sont faibles comparés à ceux d’autres facteurs comme les conditions climatiques. En revanche l’effet du pois sur les communautés d’adventices est fort mais limité dans le temps. Ces résultats montrent la nécessité de mener les expérimentations au champ sur plusieurs années afin de prendre en compte la variabilité climatique. / Crops species modify resources availability and perturbation regimes perceived by the communities of organisms residing in the agroecosystems and, as a consequence, can lead to alteration of ecosystem functions useful to crop production, such as nitrogen and sulfur mineralization or crop-weeds competition, realized by weeds or microorganisms. Our objective was to study the effect of a legume, pea, when introduced in a crop succession, on weed communities and microbial communities involved in protein decomposition and sulfate ester mineralization, which are the main forms of N and S, respectively, in agricultural soils. To do so, we performed experiments in controlled conditions used data from a 5-years field experiment. In controlled conditions, we showed that pea during its development modify through its root functional traits several enzymatic activities involved in N decomposition/mineralization. However, in the field experiment, climatic factors were the main drivers of the microbial communities involved in N and S decomposition/mineralization. Moreover, pea selected weed communities that were functionally different from weed communities growing in other crops such as oilseed rape. However, this effect did not persist under the following crop. As a conclusion, our results suggest that pea modifications of microbial communities are weak compared to other factors such as climatic factors. However, pea effects on weed communities are strong but short lived. Those results highlight the complementarity of microcosm and field experiments, and the necessity of long term field experiments to take into account climate variability.

Dans un contexte d’agriculture durable, la création de variétés combinant des facteurs génétiques de résistance et d’architecture de la plante présente un intérêt majeur pour limiter le développement des maladies. La thèse a visé à analyser l’interdépendance des déterminants génétiques de l’architecture racinaire et de la résistance à A. euteiches, agent pathogène tellurique majeur du pois. Une analyse de génétique d’association conduite sur tout le génome, à partir d’une collection de 266 lignées de pois, a permis d’identifier 150 locus de résistance et d’architecture et de les comparer aux QTL précédemment étudiés. Une région commune à effet majeur a été associée à la résistance et à un caractère de développement racinaire intrinsèque. Plusieurs régions ont été détectées à la fois pour la résistance et des caractères de vigueur racinaire en réponse à l’infection.La combinaison de la résistance et de caractères d’architecture dans une sélection de lignées a été associée à une réduction des pertes de rendement au champ. Les résultats ont permis d’apporter des connaissances originales sur la génétique comparative de la résistance aux maladies et de l’architecture des plantes au niveau racinaire. Ils fournissent des outils, géniteurs et éléments de choix de QTL de résistance et d’architecture racinaire à combiner pour la sélection de futures variétés de pois résistantes à A. euteiches. / In a sustainable agriculture context, breeding for varieties combining genetic resistance and plant architecture is of major interest to limit diseases impacts in crops. The aim of this thesis was to analyze the interpendance of the genetic determinants of root architecture and resistance to Aphanomyces euteiches, a major soil born pathogen of peas. A genome wide association analysis among a 266-pea-line collection enabled us to pinpoint a total of 150 loci associated with resistance and plant architecture, and to compare them with QTL detected in previous studies. A common major locus was associated with resistance and an intrinsic root architecture trait.Several loci were detected for both resistance and disease-induced architecture. The combination of resistance and some architecture traits in selected pea lines was associated with reduced yield losses in infested fields. Results provide original knowledge on comparative genetics of disease resistance and plant architecture for root rot diseases. They provide tools (SNPs and marker haplotypes), parental lines and information for the choice of resistance and architecture QTL to combine in breeding strategies to improve resistance to A. euteiches in future pea varieties.

<p>Food allergy is an IgE-mediated immunological disease, which affects almost 4% of the adult population and up to 6% of children. Proteins from milk, egg, peanuts, soybean, wheat, fish and nuts are the main cause of food allergies. A less common allergen is pea protein. The National Food Administration analyses undeclared pea protein and contaminations of pea protein in foods using rocket immunoelectrophoresis and immunodiffusion. For both methods an antiserum against pea protein is needed. The aim of this study has been to characterize a newly developed rabbit-antiserum against pea protein. It is important to know if the antiserum is specific against peas, the detection as well as the quantification limits before it can be taken into use. The results of the study show that the antiserum was not absolutely specific, since it cross-reacted with chickpeas, fenugreek and lenses. However there is an "in-house" established PCR-method that can distinguish between chickpeas, fenugreek and peas and that method can be used as a complement to the rocket immunoelectrophoresis. The PCR-method cannot be used alone because it is not quantitative. Rocket immunoelectro¬phoresis detects 0,003% pea protein with purified IgG-antibodies from the antiserum.</p>

Intracellular symbioses between bacteria and insects are numerous, and alter the ecology and evolution of host and symbiont alike. Long-term persistence results from either exploitation (e.g., reproductive manipulations) or mutually beneficial interactions (e.g., nutritional mutualisms). The endosymbiont Hamiltonella defensa, while not essential for growth or survival of healthy aphids, protects aphids from attack by parasitoid wasps. In this thesis, I have used a variety of sequenced-based techniques to illuminate the population and genome dynamics of H. defensa and to disentangle how these factors contribute to its ability to persist and protect its hosts.I characterized the phylogenetic relationships among H. defensa strains from aphids and a whitefly using a multilocus approach. Most loci evolve in a clonal manner, and one cluster of strains may have given rise to an obligate symbiosis. Some H. defensa strains were infected with the bacteriophage APSE, which encodes putative eukaryotic specific toxins and has been suggested to be involved in protecting aphids. I sequenced the toxin locus and the flanking regions from the APSE strains and found that although the phage genome backbone was highly conserved, strains contained non-orthologous toxin-cassettes. Sequenced cassettes contained one of three putative toxin families: Shiga toxin, cytolethal distending toxin, and YD-repeat toxins. A correlation was noted that of several genetically identical H. defensa strains, the one without phage APSE encoding the YD-repeat toxin failed to protect its aphid host. This APSE strain carrying the YD-repeat toxin has since been demonstrated to be essential for protection in several related H. defensastrains.To examine additional bacterial encoded loci that might facilitate the persistence in and protection of aphids by H. defensa, I sequenced the genome of one strain and obtained partial genomes of two additional strains. These genomes exhibit a streamlined metabolism, but are littered with mobile DNA and putative virulence factors. Horizontal gene transfer, recombination and rearrangements are common, and phage and plasmids have played an important role in resorting genes. Thus, although H. defensa benefits its host, its facultative lifestyle has resulted in a pattern of genome evolution associated with reproductive parasites rather than long-term mutualists.
