Evolution
. 2024 Apr;
78(7):1237-1247.
PMID: 38558240
Despite vision being an essential sense for many animals, the intuitively appealing notion that the visual system has been shaped by environmental light conditions is backed by insufficient evidence. Based...

Ecol Evol
. 2024 Mar;
14(3):e11115.
PMID: 38435005
Invasive species offer insights into rapid adaptation to novel environments. The iconic cane toad () is an excellent model for studying rapid adaptation during invasion. Previous research using the mitochondrial...

Marton A, Vagasi C, Vincze O, Bokony V, Pap P, Patras L, et al.
Ecol Evol
. 2022 Aug;
12(8):e9177.
PMID: 35979521
The mechanistic link between avian oxidative physiology and plumage coloration has attracted considerable attention in past decades. Hence, multiple proximal hypotheses were proposed to explain how oxidative state might covary...

Shine R, Alford R, Blennerhasset R, Brown G, DeVore J, Ducatez S, et al.
Sci Rep
. 2021 Dec;
11(1):23574.
PMID: 34876612
Invasions often accelerate through time, as dispersal-enhancing traits accumulate at the expanding range edge. How does the dispersal behaviour of individual organisms shift to increase rates of population spread? We...

Ducatez S, Field D
Evolution
. 2021 Oct;
75(11):2717-2735.
PMID: 34608994
The altricial-precocial spectrum describes patterns of variation in avian developmental mode that greatly influence avian life histories. Appraising a given species' position on this spectrum is therefore fundamental to understanding...

Russo A, Harding E, Yan G, Selechnik D, Ducatez S, DeVore J, et al.
Front Microbiol
. 2021 Sep;
12:733631.
PMID: 34552575
Cane toads () are notoriously successful invaders: from 101 individuals brought to Australia in 1935, poisonous toads now cover an area >1.2 million km with adverse effects on native fauna....

DeVore J, Crossland M, Shine R, Ducatez S
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A
. 2021 Aug;
118(35).
PMID: 34426494
Biotic conflict can create evolutionary arms races, in which innovation in one group increases selective pressure on another, such that organisms must constantly adapt to maintain the same level of...

DeVore J, Shine R, Ducatez S
Sci Rep
. 2021 Jun;
11(1):11817.
PMID: 34083703
Like most invasive species, cane toads have attracted less research in their native range than in invaded areas. We radio-tracked 34 free-ranging toads in French Guiana, a source region for...

Nat Ecol Evol
. 2020 Apr;
4(6):788-793.
PMID: 32251379
Behavioural plasticity is believed to reduce species vulnerability to extinction, yet global evidence supporting this hypothesis is lacking. We address this gap by quantifying the extent to which birds are...

PMID: 32235835
Although adult cane toads (Rhinella marina) are generally active only at night, a recent study reported that individuals of this species switched to diurnal activity in response to encountering a...
