Sci Rep
. 2023 Nov;
13(1):20606.
PMID: 37996442
The care-kill response determines whether a sick individual will be treated or eliminated from an insect society, but little is known about the physiological underpinnings of this process. We exploited...

Ruhland F, Gabant G, Toussaint T, Nemcic M, Cadene M, Lucas C
Sci Rep
. 2023 May;
13(1):7070.
PMID: 37127756
Proteins are known to be social interaction signals in many species in the animal kingdom. Common mediators in mammals and aquatic species, they have seldom been identified as such in...

Fouche Q, Charabidze D, Lucas C
Med Vet Entomol
. 2022 Oct;
37(1):170-175.
PMID: 36196866
Chemical signals are widespread in insects, but those resulting in interspecific communication (i.e., synomones) remain understudied. Here, we analysed chemicals left on substrates by two species of blow fly larvae,...

Lucas C, Ben-Shahar Y
J Neurogenet
. 2021 Jun;
35(3):168-178.
PMID: 34151702
The social ants, bees, wasps, and termites include some of the most ecologically-successful groups of animal species. Their dominance in most terrestrial environments is attributed to their social lifestyle, which...

Pailler L, Desvignes S, Ruhland F, Pineirua M, Lucas C
Sci Rep
. 2021 May;
11(1):9902.
PMID: 33972576
Vibratory behaviours are widespread in social insects, but the produced vibrations remain poorly explored. Communication using vibrations is an efficient way to transmit information in subterranean environments where visual and...

Vidal M, Konigseder F, Giehr J, Schrempf A, Lucas C, Heinze J
Commun Biol
. 2021 May;
4(1):515.
PMID: 33941829
Choosing the right mating partner is one of the most critical decisions in the life of a sexually reproducing organism and is the basis of sexual selection. This choice is...

Ruhland F, Moulin M, Choppin M, Meunier J, Lucas C
Ecol Evol
. 2020 Jul;
10(12):5892-5898.
PMID: 32607198
In insect societies, the presence of reproductives or eggs has been shown to shape several biological traits in the colony members. Social interactions are one of these traits that involve...

Brossette L, Meunier J, Dupont S, Bagneres A, Lucas C
Ecol Evol
. 2019 Jan;
9(1):192-200.
PMID: 30680106
Parental care is a major component of reproduction in social organisms, particularly during the foundation steps. Because investment into parental care is often costly, each parent is predicted to maximize...

Elia M, Blancato G, Picchi L, Lucas C, Bagneres A, Lorenzi M
PLoS One
. 2017 Dec;
12(12):e0190018.
PMID: 29261775
Social insects recognize their nestmates by means of a cuticular hydrocarbon signature shared by colony members, but how nest signature changes across time has been rarely tested in longitudinal studies...

Csata E, Timus N, Witek M, Casacci L, Lucas C, Bagneres A, et al.
Sci Rep
. 2017 Apr;
7:46323.
PMID: 28402336
Studies investigating host-parasite systems rarely deal with multispecies interactions, and mostly explore impacts on hosts as individuals. Much less is known about the effects at colony level, when parasitism involves...
