The main objective of the proposal is to develop a new strategy using microorganisms and\/or microbial enzymes as biocatalysts for wood decontamination. The aim is to (i) limit the impact of the toxic compounds on the environment and human health and (ii) be able to recycle and valorize wood waste biomass. The working hypothesis is based on the fact that microorganisms either as single species or in consortium exhibit increased ability to resist to the toxic compounds, possess efficient enzymatic systems for complex molecules degradation and are able to secrete siderophores for metal sequestration. The PhD project will be to test the ability of fungi and bacteria to detoxify wood waste and understand the molecular mechanisms involved in the process, thanks to genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic approaches. These global analyses will help identifying molecular actors for further biochemical and functional characterization after production and purification of the recombinant proteins in heterologous systems.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Research projects performed by the <strong>UMR INRA\/Lorraine University 1136 \u00abInteractions Arbres-Microorganismes \u00bb<\/strong> are dedicated to the biology and the ecology of the interactions between microorganisms and forest trees.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The\u00a0ultimate goals of these projects are\u00a0to improve our knowledge and our understanding of the interactions that take place between trees, fungi and bacteria, and that contribute to the sustainable functioning of forest ecosystems.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Department\u00a0is organized into <strong>three teams:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li><strong>Stress response and redox regulation team<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Ecogenomics of Interactions team<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Ecology of forest pathogenic fungi team <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">and is supported by <strong>technical platforms<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">IAM is member of the <strong>Lab<\/strong> of <strong>Ex<\/strong>cellence for<strong> A<\/strong>dvanced <strong>R<\/strong>esearch on the <strong>B<\/strong>iology of T<strong>R<\/strong>ee and Forest\u00a0<strong>E<\/strong>cosystems (<strong>ARBRE<\/strong>) and is\u00a0recognized by the <strong>AgreenSkills<\/strong> mobility programme for the quality of the support offered to postdoctoral research fellows that have been awarded an AgreenSkills Fellowship<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The candidate will join the team \u00ab\u00a0Stress response and redox regulation\u00a0\u00bb located at the Faculty of Science and Technology (Lorraine University) at Vandoeuvre-l\u00e8s-Nancy.
