1.
Gould E, Fraser H, Parker T, Nakagawa S, Griffith S, Vesk P, et al.
BMC Biol
. 2025 Feb;
23(1):35.
PMID: 39915771
Although variation in effect sizes and predicted values among studies of similar phenomena is inevitable, such variation far exceeds what might be produced by sampling error alone. One possible explanation...

Duncan A, Godoy O, Michalakis Y, Zele F, Magalhaes S
Trends Parasitol
. 2024 Oct;
40(11):1042-1052.
PMID: 39428306
Individual hosts and populations frequently harbour multiple parasite species simultaneously. Despite their commonness, the consequences of interspecific interactions among parasites for determining infection outcomes are still poorly understood. We review...

Godinho D, Rodrigues L, Lefevre S, Magalhaes S, Duncan A
Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci
. 2024 Jun;
379(1907):20230139.
PMID: 38913066
One of the fundamental aims of ecological, epidemiological and evolutionary studies of host-parasite interactions is to unravel which factors affect parasite virulence. Theory predicts that virulence and transmission are correlated...

Bestion E, Legrand D, Baines C, Bonte D, Coulon A, Dahirel M, et al.
Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci
. 2024 Jun;
379(1907):20230127.
PMID: 38913065
Context-dependent dispersal allows organisms to seek and settle in habitats improving their fitness. Despite the importance of species interactions in determining fitness, a quantitative synthesis of how they affect dispersal...

Fronhofer E, Bonte D, Bestion E, Cote J, Deshpande J, Duncan A, et al.
Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci
. 2024 Jun;
379(1907):20230142.
PMID: 38913061
Dispersal is a well-recognized driver of ecological and evolutionary dynamics, and simultaneously an evolving trait. Dispersal evolution has traditionally been studied in single-species metapopulations so that it remains unclear how...

Zilio G, Deshpande J, Duncan A, Fronhofer E, Kaltz O
Trends Ecol Evol
. 2024 Apr;
39(7):666-676.
PMID: 38637209
Dispersal evolution modifies diverse spatial processes, such as range expansions or biological invasions of single species, but we are currently lacking a realistic vision for metacommunities. Focusing on antagonistic species...

Teodoro-Paulo J, Alba J, Charlesworth S, Kant M, Magalhaes S, Duncan A
R Soc Open Sci
. 2023 Jun;
10(6):230525.
PMID: 37325599
Many parasites can interfere with their host's defences to maximize their fitness. Here, we investigated if there is heritable variation in the spider mite for traits associated with how they...

Godinho D, Rodrigues L, Lefevre S, Delteil L, Mira A, Fragata I, et al.
Evol Lett
. 2023 Apr;
7(1):58-66.
PMID: 37065437
Virulence is expected to be linked to parasite fitness via transmission. However, it is not clear whether this relationship is genetically determined, nor if it differs when transmission occurs continuously...
9.
Rodrigues L, Torralba Saez M, Alpedrinha J, Lefevre S, Brengues M, Magalhaes S, et al.
J Evol Biol
. 2020 Dec;
34(3):525-536.
PMID: 33314358
Both sex allocation and sexual conflict can be modulated by spatial structure. However, how the interplay between the type of dispersal and the scale of competition simultaneously affects these traits...

Francois S, Mutuel D, Duncan A, Rodrigues L, Danzelle C, Lefevre S, et al.
Viruses
. 2019 Mar;
11(3).
PMID: 30866521
Viral metagenomics and high throughput sequence mining have revealed unexpected diversity, and the potential presence, of parvoviruses in animals from all phyla. Among arthropods, this diversity highlights the poor knowledge...
