The role of embryonic risk cues on the life history, morphology and behaviour of the wood frog Lithobates sylvaticus [PDF]
Predation is an important selective force that can influence prey life history, morphology, physiology, and behaviour. For prey to accurately mitigate their current predation risk, it is vital that they obtain reliable and updated information from their ...

Comparative ecology and phylogeography in east African cichild fishes [PDF]
Since almost two decades speciation outbursts, so-called adaptive radiations, have been put forward as a major reason for a large portion of the bio-diversity we see today.

Genomics of adaptation revealed in threespine stickleback [PDF]
Natural selection is the ultimate, but not only force underlying organismal diversity. Despite this general biological insight, our understanding of how selection targets and shapes the genome during adaptation remains incomplete and is the central quest

Morphology and ecology during the course of teleost adaptive radiations [PDF]
The work presented in my doctoral thesis focuses on different aspects of adaptive radiations in teleost fish and evolves around different systems, namely Lake Tanganyikan and Central American cichlids and Antarctic notothenioids. I assessed relationships

Morphological and Gene Expression Plasticity in Neotropical Cichlid Fishes [PDF]
Trophic divergence in cichlid fish is linked to morphological shifts in the pharyngeal jaw apparatus. For instance, in the Heroine cichlids of Central America, the ability to crush hard-shelled mollusks is a convergent phenotype with multiple ...

Extended phenotypes : ecological and evolutionary implications of interspecific information use [PDF]
Animals are continuously faced with decisions where they need reliable information about their surroundings (e.g., breeding territory). Because individuals of other species need to make the same decisions, the decisions made by others and the ...

Persistence of fan-shaped keratocytes is a matrix-rigidity-dependent process that require alpha5beta1 integrin engagement [PDF]
peer reviewedGrowing evidence suggests that cell migration towards stiffer zones of the extracellular matrix (ECM) via a process called durotaxis contributes to various physiological processes, including wound healing, development and cancer metastasis ...
