Sexual Selection and Proteinaceous Diversity in the Femoral Gland Secretions of Lacertid Lizards
Diversity, 2023 Sexual selection contributes to the diversity of chemical signals in various animal groups. Lizards are good model species to study how sexual selection shapes signal diversity, as they are a chemically oriented taxonomic group with different levels of ...

A Nose for Death: Integrating Trophic and Informational Networks for Conservation and Management
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2016 Non-lethal management of wildlife, both ‘problem wildlife’ and pest species, to protect crops and threatened species is becoming increasingly important as non-human animals and humans come into closer proximity.

Insects, 2021 Antennae are the primary sensory organs in insects, where a variety of sensilla are distributed for the perception of the chemical environment. In eusocial insects, colony function is maintained by a division of labor between reproductive and non ...

Preen gland microbiota covary with major histocompatibility complex genotype in a songbird
Royal Society Open Science, 2021 Pathogen-mediated selection at the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is thought to promote MHC-based mate choice in vertebrates. Mounting evidence implicates odour in conveying MHC genotype, but the underlying mechanisms remain uncertain.

Saving the injured: Evolution and mechanisms
Communicative & Integrative Biology, 2017 Rescue behavior focused on injured individuals has rarely been observed in animals. These observations though are from very different taxa's: birds, mammals and social insects.
