Transport infrastructure shapes foraging habitat in a raptor community.
PLoS ONE, 2015 Transport infrastructure elements are widespread and increasing in size and length in many countries, with the subsequent alteration of landscapes and wildlife communities.

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Apicoplast genomic content and mitochondrial genomic content were found to be strongly correlated (rho = 0.93) for infections going from low to high. Apicoplast and mitochondrial genomic content were deemed as more predictive factors of parasitemia for different infection intensities.

Marine Ecology, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Microplastic input into the ocean represents an increasing threat to marine biota and may endanger the functioning of marine ecosystems, especially in semi‐enclosed basins, such as the Mediterranean Sea. The size spectrum of microplastics overlaps with that of nano‐microplankton (2–200 μm), thus potentially misleading suspension‐feeding ...

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.Avian haemosporidian blood parasites are typically identified through Sanger sequencing of a partial cytochrome b fragment, the MalAvi barcoding region. Next‐generation sequencing is seldom used for avian blood parasite identification; this study demonstrates a higher detection rate of co‐infections via metabarcoding and its possible implications ...

Graph tools for analysing trophic assemblies in the isotopic space
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.Abstract A large amount of information on the trophic assembly of ecosystems is summarized in the isotopic space, and metrics for extracting this information are essential. Here, we show how the characterization of the isotopic space as an isotopic‐network of organisms linked by their trophic similarity significantly expands the isotopic toolbox for ...

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.We have found evidence of behavioural barriers for both hybridization and disease transmission between European wildcats and domestic cats. This includes hierarchical interspecies exclusion enforced by wildcats, as well as sexual selection exerted by wildcat females.

BirdsIn order to determine the impact of urbanization on raptors in the semi-desert conditions of southwestern Kazakhstan, an analysis of the spatio-temporal distribution of raptors is presented for the first time based on the results of surveys of the ...

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.The rapid expansion of wind energy across the Mediterranean region calls for more advanced tools to assess and mitigate its impacts on biodiversity. In this study, we present an innovative approach combining 13‐year satellite imagery analysis and ecological modelling, to assess the spatiotemporal overlap between wind energy development and habitat ...

Survival Remains High in Griffon Vultures 40 Years After Reintroduction
Animal Conservation, EarlyView.The reintroduction of the Griffon vulture (Gyps fulvus) in French Grands Causses in 1981 is largely regarded as a significant translocation success. 40 years of quality data from intensive monitoring allows us to investigate the survival rates in this long‐lived population on the long term, but also to reflect on the crucial role of adaptive management
