Une base explicite de symboles modulaires sur les corps de fonctions
  Modular symbols for the congruence subgroup $\Gamma_0(\mathfrak{n})$ of $GL_{2}(\mathbf{F}_q[T])$ have been defined by Teitelbaum. They have a presentation given by a finite number of generators and relations, in a formalism similar to Manin's for classical modular symbols. We completely solve the relations and get an explicit basis of generators when $\mathfrak{n}$ is a prime ideal of odd degree. As an application, we give a non-vanishing statement for $L$-functions of certain automorphic cusp forms for $\mathbf{F}_q(T)$. The main statement also provides a key-step for a result towards the uniform boundedness conjecture for Drinfeld modules of rank $2$.
