    Abstract On November 11th, 2019, a moderate M W 4.9 earthquake occurred in Le Teil in the southeast of France, inducing significant damage (VIII on the EMS98 intensity scale in some localities). This moderate earthquake occurred at a very shallow depth of 1-2 km and induced a surface rupture up to 15 cm uplift. Good quality recordings of this earthquake are available at numerous stations well distributed around the epicentre, with the nearest station 8 km from the rupture. These recordings were analysed to highlight any specific ground motion features related to the shallow depth of the earthquake with a focus on the residuals between observations and ground motion model predictions. The first trend emerging from the residual analysis is that observations are higher than predictions at 0.5 Hz and on the contrary, they are lower above 5 Hz. Looking at the spatial distribution of residuals, we highlight that their amplitude is closely related to their location. For example, at high frequencies, residuals are lower for sites in the southeast of France, which is consistent to the first order with regional attenuation maps. Source properties and regional geological characteristics could also be explored to explain the residual amplitudes in different frequency ranges. Finally, different phenomena could be involved to explain residuals, but it is not straightforward to conclude that one factor is dominant.

    Abstract Improving fruit quality traits such as metabolic composition remains a challenge for tomato breeders. To better understand the genetic architecture of these traits and decipher the demographic history of the loci controlling tomato quality traits, we applied an innovative approach using multiple haplotype-based analyses, aiming to test the potentials of haplotype based study in association and genomic prediction studies. We performed and compared haplotype vs SNP-based associations (hapQTL) with multi-locus mixed model (MLMM), focusing on tomato fruit weight and metabolite contents (i.e. sugars, organic acids and amino acids). Using a panel of 163 tomato accessions genotyped with 5995 SNPs, we detected a total of 784 haplotype blocks, with an average size of haplotype blocks ~58 kb. A total of 108 significant associations for 26 traits were detected thanks to Haplotype/SNP-based Bayes models. Haplotype-based Bayes model (97 associations) outperformed SNP-based Bayes model (50 associations) and MLMM (53 associations) in identifying marker-trait associations as well as in genomic prediction (especially for those traits with moderate to low heritability). To decipher the demographic history, we identified 24 positive selective sweeps using the integrated haplotype score (iHS). Most of the significant associations for tomato quality traits were located within selective sweeps (54.63% and 71.7% in hapQTL and MLMM models, respectively). Promising candidate genes were identified controlling tomato fruit weight and metabolite contents. We thus demonstrated the benefits of using haplotypes for evolutionary and genetic studies, providing novel insights into tomato quality improvement and breeding history.

    Abstract Objectives: The aim of this study is to compare the in vitro activity and minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) distributions of tedizolid and linezolid against Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) strains using a reference broth microdilution assay and a macrodilution assay with the Bactec-MGIT-960.
    Methods: A total of 37 clinical isolates of MAC were included in the study. Reference broth microdilution was performed according to CLSI guidelines in a range of concentrations from 64 to 0.064 mg/L. Macrodilution was performed with the Bactec-MGIT-960 system. The cut-off points defined by CLSI for linezolid (resistant: > 16 mg/L, intermediate: 16 mg/L, susceptible: <16 mg/L) were used to define clinical categories of this drug. Essential agreement for both linezolid and tedizolid and categorical agreement for linezolid were defined following FDA criteria.
    Results: The MIC
    Conclusions: Tedizolid showed higher in vitro activity than linezolid against the tested MAC isolates. Macrodilution using the BD Bactec-MGIT-960 system is a practical approach to determine the susceptibility of MAC strains to tedizolid.

    Abstract Meeting the challenges of agroecological transition in a context of climate change requires the use of various strategies such as biological regulations, adapted animal and plant genotypes, diversified production systems, and digital technologies. Seeds and plants, through plant breeding, play a crucial role in driving these changes. The emergence of genome editing presents a new opportunity in plant breeding practices. However, like any technological revolution involving living organisms, it is essential to assess its potential contributions, limits, risks, socio-economic implications, and the associated controversies. This article aims to provide a comprehensive review of scientific knowledge on genome editing for agroecological transition, drawing on multidisciplinary approaches encompassing biological, agronomic, economic, and social sciences.

    Abstract In aviation, mental workload and stress are two major factors that can considerably impact a pilot's flight performance and decisions. Their consequences can be even more dramatic in single-pilot aircraft or with the forthcoming single-pilot operations where the pilot will fly alone and will not be able to be assisted in case of difficulty. An accurate and automatic monitoring of the pilot's mental state could help to prevent the potentially dangerous effects of an excess mental workload and stress. For example, some tasks could be allocated to automation or to a ground-based flight crew if a mental overload or significant stress is detected. In the current study, the brain activity of 20 private pilots was recorded with a fNIRS device during two realistic flight simulator scenarios. The mental workload was manipulated with the added difficulty of a secondary task and stress was induced by a social stressor. Our results confirmed the sensitivity of the fNIRS readings to variations in the mental workload, with increased HbO2 concentration in regions of the executive control network (ECN), in particular in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and in lateral parietal regions, when the difficulty of the secondary task was high. The social stressor also triggered an HbO2 increase in the ECN, especially when it was combined with high mental workload. This latter result suggests that mental workload and stress together can have cumulative effects, and coping with both factors is possible at the expense of an extra recruitment of the ECN. Finally, results also revealed a time-on-task effect, with a progressive reduction of the HbO2 signal in the ECN during the flight scenario, suggesting that these regions are sensitive to short term habituation to the tasks. Overall, fNIRS efficiently indexed mental load, stress, and practice effects.

    Abstract In high-risk environments, fast and accurate responses to warning systems are essential to efficiently handle emergency situations. The aim of the present study was twofold: 1) investigating whether hand action videos (i.e., gesture alarms) trigger faster and more accurate responses than text alarm messages (i.e., written alarms), especially when mental workload (MWL) is high; and 2) investigating the brain activity in response to both types of alarms as a function of MWL. Regardless of MWL, participants (N = 28) were found to be both faster and more accurate when responding to gesture alarms than to written alarms. Brain electrophysiological results suggest that this greater efficiency might be due to a facilitation of the action execution, reflected by the decrease in mu and beta power observed around the response time window observed at C3 and C4 electrodes. These results suggest that gesture alarms may improve operators' performances in emergency situations.

    Abstract During a flight, pilots must rigorously monitor their flight instruments since it is one of the critical activities that contribute to update their situation awareness. The monitoring is cognitively demanding, but is necessary for timely intervention in the event of a parameter deviation. Many studies have shown that a large part of commercial aviation accidents involved poor cockpit monitoring from the crew. Research in eye-tracking has developed numerous metrics to examine visual strategies in fields such as art viewing, sports, chess, reading, aviation, and space. In this article, we propose to use both basic and advanced eye metrics to study visual information acquisition, gaze dispersion, and gaze patterning among novices and pilots. The experiment involved a group of sixteen certified professional pilots and a group of sixteen novice during a manual landing task scenario performed in a flight simulator. The two groups landed three times with different levels of difficulty (manipulated via a double task paradigm). Compared to novices, professional pilots had a higher perceptual efficiency (more numerous and shorter dwells), a better distribution of attention, an ambient mode of visual attention, and more complex and elaborate visual scanning patterns. We classified pilot's profiles (novices-experts) by machine learning based on Cosine KNN (K-Nearest Neighbors) using transition matrices. Several eye metrics were also sensitive to the landing difficulty. Our results can benefit the aviation domain by helping to assess the monitoring performance of the crews, improve initial and recurrent training and ultimately reduce incidents, and accidents due to human error.

    Abstract The Lacq area in southwest France has been associated with continuous moderate induced seismic activity since 1969. However, the mechanisms driving this induced seismicity are not fully understood: reservoir depletion has been proposed as the main factor, and more recently wastewater injection has been suggested to play a more important role (Grasso et al., 2021). The interpretation of these mechanisms relies heavily on the quality of earthquake locations, which we prove to be weak due to a lack of local instrumentation for several years. In order to provide the most complete and reliable induced event catalog for the studies of the Lacq induced seismicity mechanisms & seismic hazard, we made an exhaustive compilation, analysis and improvement of all available catalogs. We also provided new earthquake detections & relocations in a 3D velocity model from past and present temporary deployments never used for studying the Lacq area. Important remaining location uncertainties lead us to also carefully sort the events according to their location confidence, defining 3 classes of events (unconstrained location, location constrained within 2-3 km and 1-2 km respectively). This new harmonized catalog and the identification of well-constrained events, covering 50 years of induced seismicity, allow us to propose that wastewater injection is almost certainly the main mechanism driving the seismicity, with (i) most of the constrained events located within the reservoir boundaries and (ii) the released seismic energy variations following variations in injection operations at different scales. In particular, we have also highlighted a change in the injection-seismicity relationship around 2010–2013. From 2013, despite lower injection volumes, seismicity remained persistent and some clusters of earthquakes were detected predominantly in spring, summer, and early autumn, except in winter periods. From 2016, we observed a strong temporal relationship between days with higher rate/volume injections (approximately above ...
