Abstract:
Androgen receptor (AR) signaling is essential for prostate cancer progression and acquiring resistance to hormone therapy. However, the molecular pathogenesis through AR activation has not been fully understood. We performed integrative transcriptomic analysis to compare the AR program in a castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) model with that in their parental hormone-sensitive cells. We found that the gene cordon-bleu–like 1 (COBLL1) is highly induced by AR in CRPC model cells. The expression of COBLL1 that possesses an actin-binding domain is up-regulated in clinical prostate cancer tissues and is associated with a poor prognosis for prostate cancer patients. COBLL1 is involved in the cancer cell morphogenesis to a neuron-like cell shape observed in the CRPC model cells, promoting cell growth and migration. Moreover, nuclear COBLL1 interacts with AR to enhance complex formation with CDK1 and facilitates AR phosphorylation for genomic binding in CRPC model cells. Thus, our findings showed the mechanistic relevance of cordon-bleu proteins during the AR-mediated progression to CRPC.

Abstract:
Microvilli are actin-based protrusions found on the surface of diverse cell types, where they amplify membrane area and mediate interactions with the external environment. In the intestinal tract, these protrusions play central roles in nutrient absorption and host defense and are therefore essential for maintaining homeostasis. However, the mechanisms controlling microvillar assembly remain poorly understood. Here we report that the multifunctional actin regulator cordon bleu (COBL) promotes the growth of brush border (BB) microvilli. COBL localizes to the base of BB microvilli via a mechanism that requires its proline-rich N-terminus. Knockdown and overexpression studies show that COBL is needed for BB assembly and sufficient to induce microvillar growth using a mechanism that requires functional WH2 domains. We also find that COBL acts downstream of the F-BAR protein syndapin-2, which drives COBL targeting to the apical domain. These results provide insight into a mechanism that regulates microvillar growth during epithelial differentiation and have significant implications for understanding the maintenance of intestinal homeostasis.

Abstract:
Avian genomes have perplexed researchers by being conservative in both size and rearrangements, while simultaneously holding the blueprints for a massive species radiation during the last 65 million years (My). Transposable elements (TEs) in bird genomes are relatively scarce but have been implicated as important hotspots for chromosomal inversions. In zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata), long terminal repeat (LTR) retrotransposons have proliferated and are positively associated with chromosomal breakpoint regions. Here, we present the genome, karyotype and transposons of blue-capped cordon-bleu (Uraeginthus cyanocephalus), an African songbird that diverged from zebra finch at the root of estrildid finches 10 million years ago (Mya). This constitutes the third linked-read sequenced genome assembly and fourth in-depth curated TE library of any bird. Exploration of TE diversity on this brief evolutionary timescale constitutes a considerable increase in resolution for avian TE biology and allowed us to uncover 4.5 Mb more LTR retrotransposons in the zebra finch genome. In blue-capped cordon-bleu, we likewise observed a recent LTR accumulation indicating that this is a shared feature of Estrildidae. Curiously, we discovered 25 new endogenous retrovirus-like LTR retrotransposon families of which at least 21 are present in zebra finch but were previously undiscovered. This highlights the importance of studying close relatives of model organisms.

Abstract:
Cordon Bleu (Cobl) is a WH2-containing protein believed to act as an actin nucleator. We show that it has a very specific localization in epithelial cells at the basal region of microvilli, a localization unlikely to be involved in actin nucleation. The protein is localized by a central region between the N-terminal COBL domain and the three C-terminal WH2 domains. Ectopic expression of Cobl shortens apical microvilli, and this requires functional WH2 domains. Proteomic studies reveal that the COBL domain binds several BAR-containing proteins, including SNX9, PACSIN 2/syndapin 2, and ASAP1. ASAP1 is recruited to the base of microvilli by binding the COBL domain through its SH3. We propose that Cobl is localized to the basal region of microvilli both to participate in length regulation and to recruit BAR proteins that associate with the curved membrane found at the microvillar base.

Abstract:
Coordinated beating is crucial for the function of multiple cilia. However, the molecular mechanism is poorly understood. Here, we characterize a conserved ciliary protein CYB5D1 with a heme-binding domain and a cordon-bleu ubiquitin-like domain. Mutation or knockdown ofCyb5d1in zebrafish impaired coordinated ciliary beating in the otic vesicle and olfactory epithelium. Similarly, the two flagella of an insertional mutant of the CYB5D1 ortholog inChlamydomonas(Crcyb5d1) showed an uncoordinated pattern due to a defect in thecis-flagellum. Biochemical analyses revealed that CrCYB5D1 is a radial spoke stalk protein that binds heme only under oxidizing conditions. Lack of CrCYB5D1 resulted in a reductive shift in flagellar redox state and slowing down of the phototactic response. Treatment ofCrcyb5d1with oxidants restored coordinated flagellar beating. Taken together, these data suggest that CrCYB5D1 may integrate environmental and intraciliary signals and regulate the redox state of cilia, which is crucial for the coordinated beating of multiple cilia.

Abstract:
Local actin filament formation powers the development of the signal-receiving arbor of neurons that underlies neuronal network formation. Yet, little is known about the molecules that drive these processes and may functionally connect them to the transient calcium pulses observed in restricted areas in the forming dendritic arbor. Here we demonstrate that Cordon-Bleu (Cobl)–like, an uncharacterized protein suggested to represent a very distantly related, evolutionary ancestor of the actin nucleator Cobl, despite having only a single G-actin–binding Wiskott–Aldrich syndrome protein Homology 2 (WH2) domain, massively promoted the formation of F-actin–rich membrane ruffles of COS-7 cells and of dendritic branches of neurons. Cobl-like hereby integrates WH2 domain functions with those of the F-actin–binding protein Abp1. Cobl-like–mediated dendritic branching is dependent on Abp1 as well as on Ca2+/calmodulin (CaM) signaling and CaM association. Calcium signaling leads to a promotion of complex formation with Cobl-like’s cofactor Abp1. Thus, Ca2+/CaM control of actin dynamics seems to be a much more broadly used principle in cell biology than previously thought.

Abstract:
Amidst the growing interest in edible insects, most insect dishes featured on menus or during public events are still primarily focused on fried, freeze dried or pulverised insects. This can be attributed to a limited understanding and knowledge of the complexity and variation in unique sensory profiles of insects, as well as how they can be processed. In order to bridge this knowledge gap, Le Cordon Bleu Dusit Culinary School hosted a free, public workshop on ‘Insects in a gastronomic context’ in Bangkok, Thailand on 19 February 2015. The event took its point of departure in focusing on the growing body of scientific and practical knowledge of the field. Four unique dishes were created for the event and participants were invited to evaluate them. Event participation included that of chefs, practitioners, entrepreneurs and scientists. This paper recounts the events leading up to the workshop, as well as the sensory evaluation of the dishes. After the presentation, 93% of the participants noted that they would like to eat insects again. All participants found the menu and complementary presentations interesting, and requests for future workshops and knowledge sharing were made.

Abstract:
Purpose This paper aims to describe the nature and significance of Sorel’s cooking appliance and to examine the promotion and marketing options used by Sorel to make it an appliance that was “widely used in private residences and by small eating houses.” It will highlight the role of the individual and will demonstrate that marketing and promotion strategies that are modulated by the social ambitions of the manufacturer. Design/methodology/approach The basis of this research is extensive quantitative and qualitative analysis of primary sources, mainly the advertisements placed by Sorel, supported by information in contemporary newspapers and journals. Findings Stanislas Sorel’s invention of an early form of thermostat allowed him to develop a stove that could cook a four-course family dinner largely unsupervised, an invention which was poised to revolutionise the lives of many households. Sorel was primarily an inventor striving for acceptance in the scientific world, with limited skills in the commercialisation of his inventions. His promotion and marketing efforts reflect both the social realities of the time and his own ambitions. Originality/value There has been very little research into the way small French inventors and manufacturers approached the marketing of their products. The paper provides a unique insight into the promotion techniques of a mid-nineteenth-century French inventor-cum-entrepreneur and highlights the role of the individual and how actions are constrained by ambition and opportunity. The paper provides an example of how research into how specific individuals can inform the larger history of marketing.

Abstract:
Lee Miller was a Vogue cover girl in New York in the mid-to-late 1920s. In the early thirties she was Man Ray's muse, student, and lover in Paris, where she also worked as both photographer and model for Paris Vogue, as well as for numerous courtiers, including Patou and Scheperelli. The mid-thirties found her with her own successful photographic studio back in Manhattan. In WWII she served as British Vogue's official war correspondent and was one of the first photographers to enter liberated Dachau and Buchenwald. In 1957 Miller passed the Cordon Bleu course at their Paris school. Generally overlooked, if not overtly dismissed, Lee Miller's gourmet phase in the 1950s and 1960s is discussed in this article as ““another form of her genius.”” Always ahead of her time, Miller was a mezza maven and a tapas enthusiast. The home she shared with her husband, Roland Penrose, in the English countryside was frequently filled with weekend guests drawn from the international modern art world. For many of them she created ““food pictures,”” some inspired by their own works of art. She collected and invented recipes, often based on her extensive travels and sometimes as practical jokes and rebukes.

Abstract:
The structure of the actin filament is known at a resolution that has allowed the architecture of protein components to be unambiguously assigned. However, fully understanding the chemistry of the system requires higher resolution to identify the ions and water molecules involved in polymerization and ATP hydrolysis. Here, we find experimental evidence for the association of cations with the surfaces of G-actin in a 2.0-Å resolution X-ray structure of actin bound to a Cordon-Bleu WH2 motif and in previously determined high-resolution X-ray structures. Three of four reoccurring divalent cation sites were stable during molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of the filament, suggesting that these sites may play a functional role in stabilizing the filament. We modeled the water coordination at the ATP-bound Mg2+, which also proved to be stable during the MD simulations. Using this model of the filament with a hydrated ATP-bound Mg2+, we compared the cumulative probability of an activated hydrolytic water molecule approaching the γ-phosphorous of ATP, in comparison with G-actin, in the MD simulations. The cumulative probability increased in F-actin in line with the activation of actin’s ATPase activity on polymerization. However, inclusion of the cations in the filament lowered cumulative probability, suggesting the rate of hydrolysis may be linked to filament flexibility. Together, these data extend the possible roles of Mg2+ in polymerization and the mechanism of polymerization-induced activation of actin’s ATPase activity.

Abstract:
Objectives:The study had four major objectives: (1) to identify the types of qualifications,certifications and accreditations offered by Australian life coaching schools; (2) to provide an overview of the advertised content and cost of life coach training courses; (3) to identify how life coaching schools differentiate between life coaching and mental health treatment; and (4) to explore the marketing statements made about courses, schools, owners and trainers.Design:This study employed a qualitative research design in which information on Australian life coaching school’s were drawn from their websites. Emergent themes were coded and analyses conducted on the basis of those themes.Methods:Following an internet search, the emergence of broad categories and themes related to the aims of the study were documented, leading to the identification of a group of core categories and a final process of comparison between schools.Results:Of the 14 Australian life coaching schools identified, six claimed to be International Coach Federation accredited and five offered courses under the Australian Qualifications Framework. Cost for courses varied between A$1070 and A$9990. Nine of the 14 schools made no explicit distinction between life coaching and treatment for mental health issues, and one school stated that life coaching could be used to deal with anxiety-related problems. Self-promotional statements about teachers and owners varied greatly from claims of university affiliations to prior experience as a cordon bleu chef. The claims made as to the earning potential of life coaches were not unrealistic.Conclusions:In general, the self-promotional statements of the Australian life coach training industry were flamboyant but only a few were considered outrageous. Recommendations made include that schools become Registered Training Organisations, that students check the claimed accreditations, academic affiliations of schools, and validity of qualifications and credentialing, and that schools make explicit the distinctions and boundaries between mental health treatment and life coaching.

Social environments can shape animal communication. Although mutual courtship displays are generally thought to function in private communication between a male and a female, we provide experimental evidence that they work in a broader social context than previously thought. We examined the audience effect on mutual courtship in blue-capped cordon-bleus, a socially monogamous songbird. This species is characterized by conspicuous courtship shared between sexes: Both sexes sing songs and sometimes add a unique dance display that looks like human tap dancing. We found that in both sexes, multimodal courtship displays (song accompanied by dance) were promoted in the presence of an audience, especially if it was the opposite sex. In contrast, unimodal displays (song without dance) were suppressed by audiences. Because birds directed the courtship dancing toward their partners (but not the audience), multimodal courtship displays are likely meant to advertise their current mating status to other cordon-bleus.

Abstract:
Essential Molecular Biology, Vol. 1, 2nd edn edited by T. A. Brown Oxford University Press (2000) 240 pages. ISBN 0–19-963642-7 pound29.95 I have heard it said (though not to my face) that practical molecular biology is somewhat akin to cookery, and I have to admit (though not to my fellow Molecular Biologists) that there is an element of truth in this. Of course, our ovens are cooler, and our pie dishes smaller, but often it is a case of mixing ingredients in the right proportions and baking at 37 degrees C for an hour. In this book Brown becomes the Delia Smith of molecular biology, starting with how to boil an egg, before proceeding to more complex recipes. It is utterly and unashamedly aimed at the complete novice. As more and more branches of biology use molecular techniques, and as a constant flow of graduates take up the yoke of research, there will always be a demand for this type of manual. Of course, it is possible to find variants of a lot of these methods on the Internet, but, as these often include only the protocol, the complete novice is probably better off with a specifically designed manual. Another option is to go for the kit approach, but, in the same way as opening a tin of beans doesn't make you a chef, I whole heartedly agree with Brown when he says, ‘do not get the idea that using kits is the same as being a molecular biologist.’ In most branches of biology a bit of genuine molecular expertise can only enhance one's future job prospects! One of the things I liked about this book is its no-nonsense style, particularly those chapters written by the Editor. There is plenty of sound advice, not just on the molecular techniques but on how to be a good scientist in general. Although the advice starts with the basics, it isn't patronising to those experienced in other fields. One piece of advice that particularly tickled me was that, if your hand is too unsteady to load a gel, you should give up caffeine; I'm not sure whether the pain would be worth the gain! The first chapter deals with all the basic issues, from planning (not just how to do it, but is it worthy of your time, which is something we should all think about occasionally) to safety (which nasties you'll be using, what precautions to take, with internet sites referenced to fill in the details) and what equipment you'll need to run the experiments. In a nutshell, the rest of the book deals with microbiology for molecular biologists and molecular biology for everyone else. This includes DNA and RNA isolation, electrophoresis and cloning (generating, propagating and identifying recombinant DNA molecules, not the Dolly-the-sheep variety). There is a second volume to the set, which (based on the contents of the first edition) should cover making and screening libraries, the polymerase chain reaction, sequencing and gene expression studies. Bear in mind that to get very far you will need to buy the second volume, which is not yet published. It has been more than a decade since the first edition of this well-known and respected manual was published; so one would think its first update is about due. However, compared with the first edition, most chapters have very few changes. This is probably in the nature of such a basic manual - for example, good microbial practice doesn't change much. Only a couple of chapters have been extensively rewritten; those describing DNA extraction now include more recent resin-based methods. So to the crux of the matter: would I recommend buying it? Well, if you're a complete novice with little backup, I definitely think it is worth investing in a decent manual, and this one does have a nice comfortable feel to it. If you've already got a copy of the previous edition and are wondering whether to upgrade, I would say that the few improvements in these very basic techniques do not really make it worth spending the pound30 that this volume costs. That said, I rather suspect that the second volume, which deals with more complex techniques, will show far more technical advances and should complete your progression from culinary incompetence to cordon bleu.

Abstract:
Abstract Drivers of evolution are often related to geographical isolation and/or diverging environmental conditions. Spatial variation in neutral genetic markers mostly reflects past geographical isolation, i.e. long-lasting allopatry, whereas morphology is often driven by local environmental conditions, resulting in more rapid evolution. In Europe, most thermophilic species persisted during the past glacial periods in geographically disjunct refugia, representing long-lasting isolates, frequently with diverging environmental conditions. This situation has driven the evolution of intraspecific signatures in species. Here, we analysed wing shape and wing pigmentation of the chalk-hill blue butterfly, Polyommatus coridon, across its entire distribution range restricted to the western Palaearctic. In addition, we compiled abiotic environmental parameters for each sampling site. Wing colour patterns differentiated a western and an eastern lineage. These lineages might represent two main Pleistocene refugia and differentiation centres, one located on the Italian Peninsula and the other in the Balkan region. The two lineages showed evidence of hybridization across Central Europe, from the Alps and across Germany. The intraspecific differentiation was strongest in the width of the brown band on the outer margin of the wings. The morphological structures obtained are in line with genetic signatures found in previous studies, but the latter are more fine-grained. Current environmental conditions, such as mean temperatures, were only marginally correlated with colour patterns. Our study underlines that Pleistocene range shifts, often resulting in allopatric isolation, shape intraspecific phenotypic structures within species; that pigmentation responds in a more sensitive manner to spatial disjunction than wing shape; and that morphometric and genetic structures in P. coridon provide concordant patterns and thus support identical biogeographical conclusions.

Abstract:
Abstract Introduction. It is believed that an inlandsis covered the northern half of the African Gondwana at the end of the Ordovician. After a review of the stratigraphic framework and the methodology used, an attempt is made to reconstruct the successive stages of the advance of the sea at the end of the Ordovician and in the early Silurian in a region believed to have been close to the pole. Only the Algerian Sahara is taken in consideration (fig. 1). Some suggestions are made on the role of the glacio-eustatism in the « Silurian » transgression of the Algerian Sahara. Lithostratigraphy. Because of an inadequate biostratigraphy and facies variations in the uppermost Ordovician of Sahara, several lithostratigraphic successions have been proposed. To emphasize the more important features of the glaciation, a generalized lithological column has been prepared [Legrand, 1999] (fig. 2). The biostratigraphical framework. Graptolites are the classical fossils used to construct the biostratigraphy of the uppermost Ordovician and the Lower Silurian. In the Algerian Sahara, the use of the standard graptolite zones has been handicaped by the fact that graptolite faunas are endemic and the typical, diagnostic species occurring in this interval of geologic time are absent. A new regional biostratigraphy had to be constructed based on the diplograptid graptolites present [Legrand, 1999]. The new zones are essentially distribution zones. Brachiopods and chitinozoans have also been used as additional correlating tools. Based on the new graptolite zonation, and the recorded sedimentary events of the region, such as transgressions, regressions and so on, new regional stages and substages have been defined (fig. 3) allowing us to reconstruct the paleogeographic evolution of the Algerian Sahara. Problems with the uppermost Ordovician. The uppermost Ordovician, as herein defined, comprises all the strata belonging to the n4 regional subsystem of the Saharan stratigraphy. This subsystem includes all the “glacial” formations disconformably laid down on the Saharan platform before the beginning of the Silurian. Many problems have been encountered with the uppermost Ordovician of the Algerian Sahara and adjacent regions, but only are considered in this paper : (a) epeirogenic movements and erosion ; (b) the nature of the glacial, periglacial, deltaic and fluviatile sediments ; (c) one glaciation, multiple glaciations or only a polyphase glaciation ; (d) the varying importance of unconformities ; (e) the age of the uppermost Ordovician formations, i.e. whether they are uppermost Ashgillian or upper Caradocian-upper Ashgillian and the precise age of the last Hirnantia fauna. In this paper only the hypothesis of one late Ashgillian glaciation is taken into consideration. Paleogeography of the latest Ordovician (regional subsystem n4). Stage n4a (Cautleyan p.p. and Rawtheyan p.p.). The exact time of the beginning of glaciation is uncertain. Stage n4b (upper Rawtheyan-earliest Hirnantian) (fig. 5). At Djado, shales with the graptolite “Glyptograptus” ojsuensis overlie the glacial strata. Trinucleidae trilobites attest to the withdrawal of the ice followed by a marine transgression in this region. Elsewhere, because of the lack of biostratigraphic data, nothing is definitely known as to what went on in the Algerian Sahara. One may suppose that the ice sheet went on growing in some regions and continental deposits may help in dating this period. Substage n4c1 (early and mid-Hirnantian) (fig. 5). One may suppose that the ice sheet advanced and regressed several times before beginning to melt and the continent began to rebound. However, there are some remarkable regional differences. In the Djado area, the silty-argillaceous sedimentation went on, locally interrupted, perhaps, by the return of glacial sedimentation. Farther north, at Oued In Djerane, the last dropstone shales are replaced by normal, marine graptolitebearing shales, while elsewhere the upper sandstones of the Felar-Felar formation, consisting of more or less continental periglacial facies with “cordons” are deposited. The return to marine, littoral conditions is represented by the Hirnantia– or Plectothyrella-bearing sandstones extending from the Ougarta Mountains to the central Tassili N’ Ajjer. Locally, fluviatile beds mark the end of Ordovician sedimentation. Substage n4c2 (Late Hirnantian) (fig. 6). A new transgression begins with this sub-stage, marking the true beginning of the « Silurian » transgression. It should be noted that it is quite possible that the Hirnantia- and Plectothyrella-bearing sandstone dated as marking the end of substage n4c1 could also indicate the beginning of substage n4c2. Paleogeography of the early Silurian (regional subsystem g1) Lower Llandovery. Substages g1a1, g1a2–3 (lower Rhuddanian) (fig. 7). The substage g1a1 is characterized by the local P. (?) kiliani Zone, which approximately corresponds to the A. ascensus Zone of the classical zonation of the Silurian. The sub-stage g1a2–3 is characterized by the presence of endemic graptolite species of the genus Neodiplograptus believed to correlate the Pk. acuminatus zone of the British zonation. Strata attributed to these substages are common in the western Tassili N’Ajjer, the Tassili of Tafassas-set and the Tassili Ouan Ahaggar. At the Oued In Djerane, the first substage begins with a return to argillaceous sedimentation in an anoxic environment. The second substage is marked by a local regression and the beginning of a northward transgression. Remnants of this substage are present in the eastern Tassili Ouan Ahaggar. Substage g1a4 (upper Rhuddanian) (figs. 8 & 9). This substage holds the sedimentary record of an important phase of the Silurian marine transgression. In the eastern Tassili N’Ajjer, strata assigned to this substage gradually overlie the Ordovician and extend far northwards becoming thinner by progressive transgression – and not because of erosion – to disappear finally south of Al Awaynat (Serdeles). Strata referred to this substage occur also in the eastern Tassili Ouan Ahaggar as far as Ted-jert and possibly In Guezzam. Remnants of this substage occur also, but as outlayers, near the mole of Amguid, at Ers Oum El Lil, Tassili of Tarit and Adrar Tikkadouine. In the area of Bled el Mass the last meters of the Aïn ech Cheikr sandstones are attributed to this substage. Beds of this age are not known on the northern border of the Eglab with the possible exception of the region of El Rhers to the west of Bou Bernous. Middle Llandovery [according to Toghill, 1968 - Legrand, 1996]. Stage g1b (in part Aeronien) (figs. 10 & 11). The middle Llandovery marks the return to marine sedimentation along the Algerian-Libyan border after a short regression at the end of the early Llandovery. The sea covered many parts of the Tassili Ouan Ahaggar. In the east, a regression clearly took place. On the other hand, the extension of the sea to the west, beyond In Guezzam, appears to overlap the preceding substage. In the central Tassili N’Ajjer, a transgression probably took place after an emergence at the end of the Ordovician. This transgression seems to be part of the process already observed farther east in the preceding substages during which the sea appears to abandon a domain after having invaded another one. Thus this transgression appears to correspond to the regression on the Algerian-Libyan frontier and in the eastern Tassili Ouan Ahaggar. All this leads us to think that at this time the sea covered much of the Ahaggar. The middle Llandovery reappears in the Bled el Mass (Aïn ech Cheikr) and core data indicate that it is also present in the eastern limit of the Tanezrouft. The transgression on the northern border of the Eglab probably began at this time, with the possible exception of the region of El Rhers to the west of Bou Bernous, where it was of a very short duration. Upper Llandovery [according to Toghill, 1968 - Legrand, 1996]. Stages g1c, g2a, g2b (in part Aeronian, Telychian). The movements of the sea and the evolution of the sedimentation initiated at the lower and middle Llandovery continue during the upper Llandovery. Conclusion. Many questions can be asked on the development of an inlandsis centered on Africa at the end of the Ordovician. On the question of the melting of the inlandsis, things are somewhat clearer. Everything, or almost everything, took place before the end of the Ordovician. The « microconglomeratic clays » began probably to settle during the stability phase of the inlandsis. The melting of the inlandsis was accompanied by the accumulation of « microconglomeratic » clays, followed by silty clays. The resulting sea level rise caused a transgression from North to South. This rise was compensated by the accumulation of sediments and the glacial rebound causing the filling of the basins. The movements of the sea did not stop because the filling-up of the available space predicted by the principle of accomodation is constantly called into question by subsidence and epeirogenic movements. The mode and the time of formation of the Hoggarian basin are very much in the realm of hypothesis. Traces attributed to it are many in the east, as are those indicating a communication to the north. The sea invaded first the depressed zones of the southeastern Sahara to finally overflow them much like a wave, following the principle of sedimentary accumulation and the rebounding of the hinterland (the hypothesis of forced transgression of Legrand [1999]). All this demands some epirogenic adjustements. The marine domain expanded during the early Silurian in a northwesterly direction, but it appears to have contracted to the east, which was invaded mostly by marine sands. Thus the Silurian transgression, which is less the result of glacioeustatism than is generally admitted, progressed from the southeast to the northwest or locally from the south to the north (from the Hoggar basin), and not from the north to the south as one may have logically supposed (fig. 12). Naturally the irregular topography left from the older relief may have perturbed its progression to the north and northwest.
