Sequential invasions by fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae) in Pacific and Indian Ocean islands: A systematic review. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2022 We gathered observations of invasions by polyphagous tephritids in islands. All invasion links were directional, i.e., they involved a series of invasions by invaders that were closely related to a resident species but were increasingly more competitive. These sequential establishments of species are driven by interspecific competition between resident

Tri-trophic interactions among Fopius arisanus, Tephritid species and host plants suggest apparent competition. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2023 Our main objective was to characterize the tri‐trophic interactions between Fopius arisanus, fruit fly and host plant species by long‐term field database and laboratory assays. Results suggest a possible existence of apparent competition between Bactrocera dorsalis and Bactrocera zonata via F. arisanus.

Plant-parasite coevolution: A weak signature of local adaptation between Peruvian Globodera pallida populations and wild potatoes. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2020 The present study tested the hypothesis of local adaptation between the potato cyst nematode Globodera pallida and wild potatoes in Peru, using a cross‐hatching assay between 13 populations of G. pallida and root exudates from 12 wild potatoes. Abstract Plant–parasite coevolution has generated much interest and studies to understand and manage diseases

Comparative adult preference-larval performance relationship between a specialist and a generalist tephritid: Implication for predicting field host-range. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe aim of our study was to compare the larval performance and adult preference of a highly generalist species, Bactrocera tryoni, and a highly specialist species, B. umbrosa. Our data comfort the hypothesis that the preference–performance relationship is tighter in specialists than in generalist species.

Le biocontrôle en France : de quoi parle-t-on ?
Cahiers Agricultures, 2022 L’utilisation des pesticides chimiques de synthèse dans la protection des cultures a aujourd’hui clairement montré ses limites : risques sanitaires, effets négatifs sur l’environnement, déséquilibres écologiques, pertes d’efficacité et coûts élevés.

Effects of canopy connectivity on the arboreal ant community in coffee shade trees
Biotropica, Volume 55, Issue 6, Page 1106-1113, November 2023., 2023 We manipulated connectivity between the crowns of large shade trees and found more species and increased compositional similarity in connected crowns. Differences in connectivity in the upper canopy may be important in structuring differences in ant communities in shaded agricultural systems and unmanaged forests.
