Mobilization of bacteriophages from soil matrix to soil water in the Attert River basin: A case study Perrine Florent1,2, Henry-Michel Cauchie1, and Leslie Ogorzaly1 1Luxembourg Institute of sciences and technology (LIST), Belvaux, Luxembourg 2University of Luxembourg (FSTC-DSSE), Esch-sur-Alzette, Luxembourg Bacteriophages are numerous, tremendously diverse and ubiquitous in the environment. Since the 1960s, bacteriophages have been proposed as new tracers to investigate the hydrological processes in addition to conventional tracers (i.e. isotopes, salts, dyes). Their dynamic into water (i.e. surface water, groundwater) have been well studied. However, the soil compartment known for its important microbial activity, have been few characterized in terms of bacteriophage diversity. Hence, in the present study, the objective is to investigate the transport of soil viral population from the soil matrix to the soil water compartment. This mobilization from the soil matrix is mainly driven by the adsorption/desorption mechanisms to which bacteriophages are subjected. Therefore, in order to understand the dynamics of the bacteriophage population, both soil and soil water were sampled from the Weierbach forest, located in the Attert River basin (Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg) at the topsoil level (i.e. 0-20 cm) over a period of one month. Due to a lower abundance of the microbial population in soil water, an enrichment method was carried out to increase the concentration. Subsequently, a shotgun metagenomics analysis was performed on the soil and soil water samples to obtain the DNA sequences, which were then sorted using bioinformatics and statistical analyses, allowing ultimately the identification of the viral populations. The moving of the bacteriophage populations from the soil to the soil water provides information on their transport capacity, in particular by taking into account environmental conditions such as air and soil temperatures, precipitation, soil humidity, soil pH, etc. Key words: bacteriophages, soil, water, transport, environmental conditions Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org).

LEADER is an initiative of the European Union and stands for “Liaison Entre Actions deD éveloppement de l’Economie Rurale” (literally: ‘Links between actions for the development of the rural economy’). According to this definition, LEADER shall foster and create links between projects and stakeholders involved in the rural economy. Its aim is to mobilize people in rural areas and to help them accomplish their own ideas and explore new ways. LEADER’s beneficiaries are so-called Local Action Groups (LAGs), in which public partners (municipalities) and private partners from the various socioeconomic sectors join forces and act together. Adopting a bottom-up approach, the LAGs are responsible for setting up and implementing local development strategies. HISTORICAL OVERVIEW With the 2014-2020 programming period and with five new LAGS, LEADER is already embarking on the fifth generation of schemes. After LEADER I (1991-1993) and LEADER II (1994-1999), under which financial support was provided to one and two regions respectively, during the LEADER+ period (2000-2006) four regions were qualified for support: Redange-Wiltz, Clervaux-Vianden, Mullerthal and Luxembourgish Moselle (‘Lëtzebuerger Musel’). In addition, the Äischdall region benefited from national funding. During the previous programming period (2007-2013), a total of five regions came in for subsidies: Redange-Wiltz, Clervaux-Vianden, Mullerthal, Miselerland and Lëtzebuerg West.

  • Les Origines De La Noblesse Seigneuriale : Le Cas D'useldange
    Les origines de la noblesse seigneuriale : le cas d’Useldange Par Stephie Reichert, professeure au Nordstad-Lycée et doctorante à l’Université de Lille 1 Le village d’Useldange est situé dans la partie occidentale du Grand-Duché de Luxembourg. Il est traversé d’ouest en est par l’Attert, une rivière qui est un affluent de l’Alzette. Un petit ruisseau appelé « Schwebich2 » qui traverse le village du sud-ouest au nord-est se jette ici dans l’Attert. L’étymologie du nom « Useldange » provient probablement3 du terme « Ussel », un dérivé du gaulois « uxellos » ou « Uch’el » signifiant lieu élevé, sorte de sémaphore à proximité d’une voie romaine4. Les origines du peuplement Selon plusieurs auteurs5, des vestiges romains ont été retrouvés sur la colline qui forme initialement le site castral6. A l’époque romaine, le site d’Useldange est intercalé entre deux chemins vicinaux7 ; un des chemins mène de Boevange-sur-Attert vers Useldange et continue vers Arlon, et l’autre part du « Helperknapp8 » vers Useldange9 en direction de Vichten vers la plus grande mosaïque romaine retrouvée au Luxembourg et dans la grande région. Le site à Useldange - une hauteur arasée placée sur le promontoire entre l’Attert et le « Schwebach » - fonctionnait vraisemblablement comme tour de guet à l’époque des Romains. Il est évident que le site se prêtait bien à l’implantation d’une forteresse. Il est fort probable que les Mérovingiens ont succédé aux Romains à Useldange étant donné qu’au nord du village près de l’Attert se situent les vestiges d’une cinquantaine de tombes mérovingiennes qui ont été découvertes en 184610.

  • Le Contrat De Rivière Moselle
    > NATURE ET BIODIVERSITÉ LE CONTRAT DE RIVIÈRE MOSELLE Le Contrat de rivière Moselle est actif dans la protection des rivières sur l’étendue du bassin versant de la Moselle en Wal- lonie. Ce bassin est constitué de trois sous bassins, celui de l’Our de la Haute-Sûre et de l’Attert. Intégré dans trois Parcs naturels, le Parc naturel de la Vallée de l’Attert, le Parc naturel Haute-Sûre Forêt d’Anlier et le Parc naturel Hautes Fagnes- Eifel, le Contrat de rivière couvre une large zone frontalière touchant l’Allemagne et le Luxembourg. En 2017, le nouveau programme d’actions débutera avec un cumul de 377 actions. La gestion d’espèces invasives, l’inventaire des points noirs, la levée d’obstacles, la réalisation de projets de restauration et la sensibilisation sont les thématiques centrales de ce programme d’actions. En 2016, 240 km de linéaire de cours d’eau ont été inventoriés avec 838 points noirs. Un cas concret de gestion est l’aménagement d’un barrage sur l’Our à Weweler en automne 2016. Il représentait le der- nier grand obstacle empêchant la libre circulation des pois- sons. Ce barrage était construit afin d’utiliser une partie du débit de l’Our pour un site de pisciculture. Il a été aménagé par la construction d’une rampe rugueuse, qui est un tron- çon de cours d’eau muni de blocs de pierre. Ces derniers sont déposés de façon à ce que le cours d’eau respecte un débit suffisant pour la circulation de poissons. L’ouvrage possède des zones d’eau calme et une certaine pente qui respectent les capacités migratoires des espèces de poissons.
