The eel genome project has been founded by an international consortium (Netherlands, France, Japan, Norway).
The draft genomes of two eel species, the European eel, Anguilla anguilla, and the Japanese eel, Anguilla japonica, have been sequenced using the Illumina method.
The ongoing project includes further assembly of the European eel genome by using ew methodologies for direct sequencing and analysis of Megabase size DNA.
The consortium is also organising international conferences and workshops on eel genomics and transcriptomics.
With nearly 1200 species, inland waters of the Indonesian archipelago illustrate the challenges inherent to the conservation of fish resources in tropical regions.
The main objective of our project is to inventory in CEPF (Critical Ecosystem Partnership Fund) priority sites freshwater fish and crustaceans in Solomon and Vanuatu in order to fill the gaps identified at IUCN Redlisting workshop. It will propose management solutions that will assist environmental managers, land-owners, local communities and all those interested in sustainable freshwater management. This work will provide help:

In recent years, the use of geochemical markers in geosciences and ecology has considerably increased in order to improve understanding of the functioning of hydrosystems. Within the Amazon basin, the main hydrogeochemical databases are provided by the HYBAM observatory, which has been monitoring different stations for more than 10 years. The size and complexity of the basin make monthly water monitoring logistically and financially complex, especially in the long term.
In polar regions submitted to climate change, the processes structuring the benthic compartment act at a regional scale and involve the ‘match-mismatch’ hypothesis between dynamics of primary production and meroplankton.
The project seeks added value and new markets for squid, octopus and cuttlefish fishery catches and products, while assuring sustainable exploitation. In north Europe, these are underutilized while in the south added value is more important. The WPs include market and consumer research (for the entire value chain), product development, marketing and design of a sustainability toolkit. Partners include research institutions, NGOs, producer organisations, wholesalers and certification bodies.

Anthropogenic driven climate change is an increasing global problem. Marine invertebrates, such as molluscs have been highlighted as being particularly at risk under future climate change scenarios due to the acidification and warming of the world’s oceans. It is predicted that their heavily calcified shells will become thinner as sea water becomes more acidic, not only changing their role as a CO2 sink but also profoundly impacting the ecological balance and biodiversity.
European Commission: Training Network IMPRESS
IMPRESS is an Innovative Training Network (ITN) of the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions funded by the EU Research and Innovation Programme Horizon 2020.
The project brings together experts from inter-disciplinary fields of expertise ranging from molecular biology to social sciences.

The PRO-EEL project aims at breeding European eel (Anguilla anguilla) in captivity. Reproduction of eel in culture has become a focus research area due a severe decline of natural stocks and an increasing interest to breed eels for a self-sustained aquaculture. PRO-EEL is an international research project supported financially by the European Commission.
The key objective of the REPROSEED project is to support the capacity of European hatcheries to respond to an increasing demand for mollusc seed. Hatchery seed production of Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) is already well established, while for other species (Mytilus edulis, M. galloprovincialis, Ruditapes decussatus, Pecten maximus) it remains limited due to market or biological bottlenecks.
The ecotoxicological risks posed by deep-sea mineral extraction are complex and poorly known. Heavy metals, trace metals and Rare Earth Elements (REEs) phases may be subject to considerable alteration in the marine environment during the mining and at-sea processing of minerals. MIDAS will focus on issues related to the mining of minerals, where there is an urgent demand for information.
The maritime dimension is the main feature of the Atlantic Area and one of the main drivers of its economy. Illegal logging, fraud and mislabeling is an important problem that creates high risks for the existence of an activity focused on the exploitation of seafood. In addition, the level of innovation too little developed in the traditional sectors implies that its potential is not yet fully exploited.
This project aims to develop new anticorrosion and anti-biofilm coatings to protect metallic structures, from marine biopolymers and from Ionic liquid IL (salt constituted by organic cation and organic or inorganic anion).
Où se cache la biodiversité en ville ? Une question importante qui interpelle non seulement les scientifiques, mais aussi nos gestionnaires publics et les sphères associatives. Bien que les études de la diversité portent très généralement sur les espèces « macroscopiques », une autre diversité grouille à nos pieds sans que l’on n’y prête la moindre attention. La biodiversité dans les caniveaux correspond à un monde inexploré, riche, changeant et parfois éphémère.
Contexte :
Les diatomées sont des micro-algues unicellulaires planctoniques dotées d’un squelette extérieur en silice, transparent et rigide, appelé frustule. La structure des pores de ces frustules joue différents rôles physiologiques et structuraux dont parfois celui de la perception et de la conversion de la lumière. Ces frustules joue un rôle de lentille optique, dont la focale est spécifique à l’espèce de diatomées considérée.
