Adaptation through chromosomal inversions in Anopheles
Frontiers in Genetics, 2014 Chromosomal inversions have been repeatedly involved in local adaptation in a large number of animals and plants. The ecological and behavioral plasticity of Anopheles species - human malaria vectors - is mirrored by high amounts of polymorphic ...

Personality, density and habitat drive the dispersal of invasive crayfish
Scientific Reports, 2022 There is increasing evidence that personality traits may drive dispersal patterns of animals, including invasive species. We investigated, using the widespread signal crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus as a model invasive species, whether effects of ...

Fitness consequences of fish circadian behavioural variation in exploited marine environments [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 The selective properties of fishing that influence behavioural traits have recently gained interest. Recent acoustic tracking experiments have revealed between-individual differences in the circadian behavioural traits of marine free-living fish; these ...
