Predictability and variability of association patterns in sooty mangabeys [PDF]
Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 2020 AbstractIn many group-living animal species, interactions take place in changing social environments, increasing the information processing necessary to optimize social decision-making. Communities with different levels of spatial and temporal cohesion should differ in the predictability of association patterns. While the focus in this context has been

SIVsm quasispecies adaptation to a new simian host. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2005 Despite the potential for infectious agents harbored by other species to become emerging human pathogens, little is known about why some agents establish successful cross-species transmission, while others do not.

Acquisition of predator knowledge in sooty mangabeys
Animal Behaviour, 2023 Comment les primates apprennent-ils à communiquer ? Un modèle influent, mais largement non testé, propose que les primates passent par un processus d'élagage, guidé par l'apprentissage social, au cours duquel ils limitent de plus en plus les appels d'alarme d'un large éventail d'animaux à quelques prédateurs dangereux. Pour tester ce modèle, nous avons

Lv4 Is a Capsid-Specific Antiviral Activity in Human Blood Cells That Restricts Viruses of the SIVMAC/SIVSM/HIV-2 Lineage Prior to Integration. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2015 HIV-2 and SIVMAC are AIDS-causing, zoonotic lentiviruses that jumped to humans and rhesus macaques, respectively, from SIVSM-bearing sooty mangabey monkeys. Cross-species transmission events such as these sometimes necessitate virus adaptation to species-

Hard-object feeding in sooty mangabeys (Cercocebus atys) and interpretation of early hominin feeding ecology. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Morphology of the dentofacial complex of early hominins has figured prominently in the inference of their dietary adaptations. Recent theoretical analysis of craniofacial morphology of Australopithecus africanus proposes that skull form in this taxon ...

Mind the gap: upgrading genomes with Pacific Biosciences RS long-read sequencing technology. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Many genomes have been sequenced to high-quality draft status using Sanger capillary electrophoresis and/or newer short-read sequence data and whole genome assembly techniques. However, even the best draft genomes contain gaps and other imperfections due
