Distributed under a Creative Commons Attribution| 4.0 International License [Tapez ici] [Tapez- 0 - ici] [Tapez ici] We are very pleased to welcome you to the 2020 European RFMF-Metabomeeting conference in Toulouse. This conference gathers together two metabolomics and fluxomics networks, the RFMF (French- speaking Metabolomics and Fluxomics Network) and the MPF (Metabolic Profiling Forum) with more than 10 years of existence. MPF and RFMF share the same objectives which are to catalyze metabolomics and fluxomics research, organize conferences and promote early career scientists. Both networks also put forward networking and social aspects as strong leverage to achieve cutting edge science. For all these reasons we decided to organize this joint event. With the growing interest in metabolomics, several regional and national networks have been created across Europe (and affiliated islands) within the last years. That is the reason why we decided to also include them in the organization of this event. They were particularly instrumental in creating a high-level scientific program and providing travel grants (a staggering 21 travel grants!). We expect this conference to demonstrate the recent breakthroughs in metabolomics and fluxomics in a wide range of application fields. We made the choice to keep the scope of the conference as broad as possible (in terms of techniques and applications) since we think that interactions between communities is key in creating new paradigms, collaborations and scientific hypothesis. One of our aims in this conference is to promote early career scientist participation. That is the reason why we did our best to keep registration prices as low as possible. As mentioned, networks made a strong effort to offer travel grants. Early careers were also strongly involved in the scientific organization of the conference. In fact, an early career committee was set up, led by Alison Woodward, and selected the early career presentations that you will see during the conference. They also proposed and organized workshops and social events. Finally, they will co-chair sessions with the (less early career) scientists. Good science is generally the outcome of hard work within a friendly and supportive environment. All organisers agreed on the fact that this friendly atmosphere is of upmost importance for the organization of the conference. That is the reason why we did our best to have exciting social and networking events before and during the conference. We also aim at following RFMF mantra of “Good food Good science” with a very local and original gala dinner. Finally, we would like to acknowledge all the academic and industrial sponsors for supporting this event and previous ones. We also thank all the people involved in the scientific and practical organization of this conference. MetaboHub-Metatoul metabolomics and fluxomics facility contribution was outstanding and our warmest thoughts go to Justine Bertrand Michel and Floriant Bellvert for their hard work and unbreakable optimism. We wish you a fruitful scientific, human and enjoyable conference!

  • First Insights Into the Impacts of Benthic Cyanobacterial Mats on Fish
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN First insights into the impacts of benthic cyanobacterial mats on fsh herbivory functions on a nearshore coral reef Amanda K. Ford 1,2*, Petra M. Visser 3, Maria J. van Herk3, Evelien Jongepier 4 & Victor Bonito5 Benthic cyanobacterial mats (BCMs) are becoming increasingly common on coral reefs. In Fiji, blooms generally occur in nearshore areas during warm months but some are starting to prevail through cold months. Many fundamental knowledge gaps about BCM proliferation remain, including their composition and how they infuence reef processes. This study examined a seasonal BCM bloom occurring in a 17-year-old no-take inshore reef area in Fiji. Surveys quantifed the coverage of various BCM-types and estimated the biomass of key herbivorous fsh functional groups. Using remote video observations, we compared fsh herbivory (bite rates) on substrate covered primarily by BCMs (> 50%) to substrate lacking BCMs (< 10%) and looked for indications of fsh (opportunistically) consuming BCMs. Samples of diferent BCM-types were analysed by microscopy and next-generation amplicon sequencing (16S rRNA). In total, BCMs covered 51 ± 4% (mean ± s.e.m) of the benthos. Herbivorous fsh biomass was relatively high (212 ± 36 kg/ha) with good representation across functional groups. Bite rates were signifcantly reduced on BCM-dominated substratum, and no fsh were unambiguously observed consuming BCMs. Seven diferent BCM-types were identifed, with most containing a complex consortium of cyanobacteria. These results provide insight into BCM composition and impacts on inshore Pacifc reefs. Tough scarcely mentioned in the literature a decade ago, benthic cyanobacterial mats (BCMs) are receiving increasing attention from researchers and managers as being a nuisance on tropical coral reefs worldwide1–4.

  • Local Hopping Mobile DNA Implicated in Pseudogene Formation And
    Vigil-Stenman et al. BMC Genomics (2015) 16:193 DOI 10.1186/s12864-015-1386-7 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Local hopping mobile DNA implicated in pseudogene formation and reductive evolution in an obligate cyanobacteria-plant symbiosis Theoden Vigil-Stenman1*, John Larsson2, Johan A A Nylander3 and Birgitta Bergman1 Abstract Background: Insertion sequences (ISs) are approximately 1 kbp long “jumping” genes found in prokaryotes. ISs encode the protein Transposase, which facilitates the excision and reinsertion of ISs in genomes, making these sequences a type of class I (“cut-and-paste”) Mobile Genetic Elements. ISs are proposed to be involved in the reductive evolution of symbiotic prokaryotes. Our previous sequencing of the genome of the cyanobacterium ‘Nostoc azollae’ 0708, living in a tight perpetual symbiotic association with a plant (the water fern Azolla), revealed the presence of an eroding genome, with a high number of insertion sequences (ISs) together with an unprecedented large proportion of pseudogenes. To investigate the role of ISs in the reductive evolution of ‘Nostoc azollae’ 0708, and potentially in the formation of pseudogenes, a bioinformatic investigation of the IS identities and positions in 47 cyanobacterial genomes was conducted. To widen the scope, the IS contents were analysed qualitatively and quantitatively in 20 other genomes representing both free-living and symbiotic bacteria. Results: Insertion Sequences were not randomly distributed in the bacterial genomes and were found to transpose short distances from their original location (“local hopping”) and pseudogenes were enriched in the vicinity of IS elements. In general, symbiotic organisms showed higher densities of IS elements and pseudogenes than non-symbiotic bacteria.

  • Detailed Characterization of the Arthrospira Type Species Separating
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Detailed characterization of the Arthrospira type species separating commercially grown Received: 13 August 2018 Accepted: 27 November 2018 taxa into the new genus Limnospira Published: xx xx xxxx (Cyanobacteria) Paulina Nowicka-Krawczyk 1, Radka Mühlsteinová2 & Tomáš Hauer 2 The genus Arthrospira has a long history of being used as a food source in diferent parts of the world. Its mass cultivation for production of food supplements and additives has contributed to a more detailed study of several species of this genus. In contrast, the type species of the genus (A. jenneri), has scarcely been studied. This work adopts a polyphasic approach to thoroughly investigate environmental samples of A. jenneri, whose persistent bloom was noticed in an urban reservoir in Poland, Central Europe. The obtained results were compared with strains designated as A. platensis, A. maxima, and A. fusiformis from several culture collections and other Arthrospira records from GenBank. The comparison has shown that A. jenneri difers from popular species that are massively utilized commercially with regard to its cell morphology, ultrastructure and ecology, as well as its 16S rRNA gene sequence. Based on our fndings, we propose the establishment of a new genus, Limnospira, which currently encompasses three species including the massively produced L. (A.) fusiformis and L. (A.) maxima with the type species Limnospira fusiformis. Among the simple trichal cyanobacteria, three genera possess helically-coiled trichomes as a prominent dia- critical feature: Spirulina Turpin ex Gomont 1892, Halospirulina Nübel, Garcia-Pichel et Muyzer 2000, and Arthrospira Stizenberger ex Gomont 1892. Te latter is a widely-known taxon with long history of use as a food source, for example as dihé in Africa or tecuitlatl in Mexico1–3.

    Research Article Algae 2012, 27(2): 75-82 http://dx.doi.org/10.4490/algae.2012.27.2.075 Open Access Phylogenetic relationships of Arthrospira strains inferred from 16S rRNA gene and cpcBA-IGS sequences Gang-Guk Choi1, Chi-Yong Ahn1 and Hee-Mock Oh1,* 1Environmental Biotechnology Research Center, Korea Research Institute of Bioscience and Biotechnology, Daejeon 305- 806, Korea Arthrospira platensis and Arthrospira maxima are species of cyanobacteria used in health foods, animal feed, food additives, and fine chemicals. This study conducted a comparison of the 16S rRNA gene and cpcBA-intergenic spacer (cpcBA-IGS) sequences in Arthrospira strains from culture collections around the world. A cluster analysis divided the 10 Arthrospira strains into two main genotypic clusters, designated I and II, where Group I contained A. platensis SAG 86.79, UTEX 2340, A. maxima KCTC AG30054, and SAG 49.88, while Group II contained A. platensis PCC 9108, NIES 39, NIES 46, and SAG 257.80. However, although A. platensis PCC 9223 belonged to Group II-2 based on its cpcBA-IGS sequence, this strain also belonged to Group I based on its 16S rRNA gene sequence. Phylogenetic analyses based on the 16S rRNA gene and cpcBA-IGS sequences showed no division between A. platensis and A. maxima, plus the 16S rRNA gene and cpcBA- IGS sequence clusters did not indicate any well-defined geographical distribution, instead overlapping in a rather inter- esting way. Therefore, the current study supports some previous conclusions based on 16S rRNA gene and cpcBA-IGS sequences, which found that Arthrospira taxa are monophyletic.
