Comparative analysis of the ftness of Drosophila virilis lines contrasting in response to stress by E. K. Karpova, I. Yu. Rauschenbach, N. E. Gruntenko

“…It was shown that a decrease in JH degradation in individuals reacting to adverse conditions by stress reaction (R­individuals) causes delay in egg laying and seems to allow the population to “wait out” the unfavorable conditions, thereby contributing to the adaptation at the population level. However, monitoring natural populations of D. melanogaster for the capability of stress reaction demonstrated that they have a high percentage of individuals incapable of it (NR­individuals). …”

Le collège-lycée Gérôme à Vesoul (1610-2019) : retour sur une démarche originale de préservation de collections patrimoniales by Liliane Hamelin, Romain Joulia

“…They concern the fine arts (plaster casts intended for drawing lessons), the teaching of natural sciences (educational posters, human and animal skeletons), physics and literature.Ordered from catalogues of specialised producers, some of the artefacts of the lycée Gérôme are present in other inventoried collections like those of the lycée Gambetta of Tourcoing or the lycée Guez-de-Balzac of Angoulême.Two private collections of liturgical garments and objects have just been added to these items’ inventories, related to the presence of a chaplaincy and the mineralogical collection of Paul Petitclerc (1840-1937), native of Vesoul, a reputed ornithologist and president of the French geological society.…”
