Women’s Europeanist networks and the gendering of EEC labour policies during the long 1960s (1957–74)
No full textInternational audienceHistorians and political scientists have long traced the introduction of a reflection on the gendered impact of European public policies back to the mid-1970s. This was linked in particular to the attempt to reduce inequalities between men and women at work, and to the adoption of European legislation in this area, based on directives designed to ensure the application of Article 119 of the Treaty of Rome. This legal approach provides little explanation of the reasons, actors and modalities for putting gender issues on the agenda of the European Economic Communities (EEC). Based mostly on the archives of women’s associations linked to the European Movement, and secondarily on the holdings of several European institutions (Commission, Parliament, Council, Economic and Social Committee), this article offers an original top-down and bottom-up analysis of the process of gendering EEC policies between 1957 and 1974. It contributes to the analysis of the economisation of the EEC social policies and shows that, for women Europeanist activists of the 1960s, gender equality could not be reduced to the issue of wages. Gendering European policies neither represented a linear process of framing of social policies under the economic goals of the EEC, nor was it an insignificant tool in the affirmation of the European institutions vis-à-vis the Member States. Eventually, studying the agency of women’s associations in the inclusion of gender in EEC labour policies allows the article to shed new light on the citizen impulses in the European integration process, from the 1960s onwards

Overexpression of the maize 9-lipoxygenase gene ZmLOX4 confers resistance to Fusarium verticillioides via the oxylipin and jasmonic acid-mediated pathways
No full textInternational audienceAbstract Fusarium verticillioides is a prominent pathogen in cereals that reduces crop yields and poses a threat to food safety by producing the secondary metabolites fumonisins. Maize lipoxygenases (ZmLOXs) genes are involved in the biosynthesis of oxylipins that function as signals in regulating defense. Previously, we showed that ZmLOX4 gene mutagenesis was associated with susceptibility to F. verticillioides in kernels, seedlings and ears altering ZmLOX transcript profiles as well as LOX enzymatic activity. In the current study, we show that ZmLOX4 overexpression results in enhanced pathogen and fumonisin contamination resistance, substantiating its role in defense and making ZmLOX4 a good target to confer disease resistance. Transcriptomic and lipidomic analyses reveal that ZmLOX4 overexpression up-regulates 9-LOX gene expression and boosts the 9-oxylipin production under fungal infection. The increased expression of jasmonic acid-related genes is also observed, but is reinforced when ZmLOX4 is overexpressed, correlating with wider accumulation of jasmonic acid-related metabolites. The ZmLOX4 gene has potential applications in engineering cropping plants to increase immunity to F. verticillioides
Holocene climatic changes in the Kerguelen archipelago (South Indian Ocean) based on marine and lacustrine palaeoclimatic archives
No full textInternational audienceClimatic variability in the Southern Hemisphere is largely controlled by the latitudinal position of the Southern Hemisphere Westerly Winds (SHW), whose migration influences precipitation, temperature, and Antarctic upwelling. This study presents the results of analyses of two lacustrine sediment cores from Lake Armor, located on the subantarctic Kerguelen Islands (49 • 15′S, 69 • 10′E), within the SHW belt. Lipid biomarkers (Glycerol Dialkyl Glycerol Tetraethers, n-alkanes, and their hydrogen isotopes) were used to reconstruct mean annual air temperature above freezing (MAF) and humidity conditions. These records are compared with a high-resolution diatom-based summer sea surface temperature (SST) reconstruction from marine core MD11-3353, situated 150 km southwest of Lake Armor. In the late glacial and Early Holocene, our results reveal a period of warm air temperature, comparable to current values and very warm sea surface temperature, 5°C above the current values. Around 9000 cal a BP, an abrupt transition occurred, marked by a cooling of 5°C in SST and 1.5°C in MAF, interpreted as a northward migration of the SHW and associated oceanic fronts. The Mid-to-Late Holocene period is characterized by pronounced MAF variability, including a notably warm interval between 3000 and 2000 cal a BP, when n-alkane dD suggests the prevalence of wetter conditions. Since ~250 cal a BP, a southward migration of the SHW has produced a 2.5°C rise in MAF. Our findings are overall consistent with previous studies from the Indian Ocean, but permit us to go a step further as by comparing SSTs and air temperatures. This suggests that SST is not a reliable predictor of air temperature on the Kerguelen Islands, particularly during the Early Holocene. We hence argue that Kerguelen air temperature is predominantly controlled by the position of westerly winds, as an indicator of reorganisations in air mass trajectories

SLICE -- Combining Strong Lensing and X-ray in AC 114. Insights into the Merger Scenario
No full textInternational audienceAC114 is a historically significant galaxy cluster, being one of the first strong lensing clusters detected from the ground in the early 1990s, prior to the launch of the HST. Despite this early prominence, no detailed lensing analyses have been carried out for more than fifteen years. We here study this cluster using JWST imaging obtained as part of the SLICE program, complemented by archival HST and X-ray observations. JWST data reveal ten new multiply imaged systems and enable the identification of conjugate substructures in several of the sixteen systems, significantly increasing the number of strong lensing constraints. Using these data, we construct a parametric mass model with Lenstool and extend it by explicitly incorporating the Chandra data in a combined strong lensing+X-ray fit. Our best-fit model reproduces the multiple images with an RMS of 0.4" while simultaneously matching the X-ray data. The dark matter distribution is unimodal and centered on the brightest cluster galaxy, with a large core radius of 83+-5kpc, consistent with values reported in other strong lensing clusters. The strong lensing constraints require the inclusion of an external shear component which position angle points unambiguously towards a nearby (~1Mpc), well defined mass concentration at the same redshift in the North-West, for which we propose the naming AC114b. The spatial coverage of the XMM-Newton data encompasses the whole structure, allowing us to probe the X-ray properties of the companion cluster and the thermodynamics of AC114, providing evidence for a major merger, in line with previous signatures seen in Chandra, radio and optical spectroscopic data. Our results shed new light on the merging scenario, revealing a major merger caught in a late post-collisional phase, where AC114 is the dominant system and Ac114b has likely been stripped of its hot gas
Tacq -Context Aware Tactic Recommendation for Rocq
No full textInternational audienceDespite recent impressive achievements of Large Language Models (LLMs) in formal mathematics using proof assistants, the state-of-the-art has mostly focused on mathematics competitions where problems typically involve simple and well-understood concepts. This is unfortunately far from current practice in formal mathematics, where experts must navigate large libraries of lemmas and manipulate complex constructions.In this paper, we focus on the problem of next tactic recommendation for Rocq. A key issue is to prompt the model with enough context to understand the current goal when the proof relies on large libraries with numerous dependencies and where specialized notations are pervasive. We present a tool that can extract notations and dependencies from the current goal and annotate them with natural language docstrings. We show that such augmented contexts improve the ability of state-of-the-art models to generate valid tactics on the challenging MathComp library.</p
