Fin de partie : les larmes des éléphants et la rupture du pacte ludique chez Pline, Histoire naturelle, VIII, 20-21

open access: yesKentron, 2022
Resorting to violence on animals, particularly in socially organized forms in public settings for the sole purpose of entertaining a human audience, has been considered a real cultural taboo in modern Western society for some decades.

The ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy as guardians of the cellular proteome

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This Perspective covers the three principles governing the crosstalk between the ubiquitin‐proteasome system and autophagy in cellular proteostasis: (1) a shared ubiquitin code routing substrates via shuttle factors or autophagy receptors; (2) spatial compartmentalization into phase‐separated degradation hubs and organelle‐specific modules (exemplified

Animal Communication

open access: yes, 1968
Twenty-four original articles by world-renowned experts in the fields of zoology and psychology present an extensive survey of the "state of the art" as of the late 1960's. Topics range from a review of the techniques of study of animal communication and

Comparison of the responses of male Japanese treefrog (Dryophytes japonicus) to the rain and advertisement calls

open access: yesJournal of Ecology and Environment
Anurans communicate with others using several types of calls such as advertisement, encounter, release, and rain calls. Some treefrog species produce rain calls from their daytime shelters, such as trees and bushes, during both the breeding and non ...

Shared songs are of lower performance in the dark-eyed junco [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2016
Social learning enables the adjustment of behaviour to complex social and ecological tasks, and underlies cultural traditions. Understanding when animals use social learning versus other forms of behavioural development can help explain the dynamics of ...

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Vocal mother-offspring communication in guinea pigs: females adjust maternal responsiveness to litter size

open access: yes, 2008
In parent-offspring communication, vocal signals are often used to attract attention and offspring might call to induce parental behaviour. In guinea pigs (Cavia aperea f.

Using Game Theory to Model the Evolution of Information: an Illustrative Game

open access: yesEntropy, 2002
: The application of information theory to biology can be broadly split into three areas: (i) At the level of the genome; considering the storage of information using the genetic code.

Syntactic modulation of rhythm in Australian pied butcherbird song

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2022
The acoustic structure of birdsong is spectrally and temporally complex. Temporal complexity is often investigated in a syntactic framework focusing on the statistical features of symbolic song sequences.

Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.
