DeVore J, Shine R, Ducatez S
J Anim Ecol . 2020 Jan; 89(4):1122-1133. PMID: 31945186
The species interactions that structure natural communities are increasingly disrupted by radical habitat change resulting from the widespread processes of urbanization and species translocations. Although many species are disadvantaged by...

Selechnik D, Richardson M, Shine R, DeVore J, Ducatez S, Rollins L
Front Genet . 2019 Dec; 10:1221. PMID: 31850072
Invasive species often evolve rapidly following introduction despite genetic bottlenecks that may result from small numbers of founders; however, some invasions may not fit this "genetic paradox". The invasive cane...

Sayol F, Lapiedra O, Ducatez S, Sol D
Evolution . 2019 Sep; 73(10):2085-2093. PMID: 31518002
Evidence is accumulating that species traits can spur their evolutionary diversification by influencing niche shifts, range expansions, and extinction risk. Previous work has shown that larger brains (relative to body...

Ducatez S, Audet J, Lefebvre L
Anim Cogn . 2019 Apr; 22(5):625-633. PMID: 30929104
Performance on different cognitive tasks varies between individuals within species. Recent evidence suggests that, in some species, this variation reflects the existence of coherent cognitive strategies bringing together positive and...

Ducatez S, Shine R
Conserv Biol . 2019 Jan; 33(4):853-860. PMID: 30682235
Attempts to identify predictors and mechanisms of invasion success have been weakened by poor data quality, mostly because monitoring does not begin immediately after introduction events. To overcome this issue,...

Ducatez S, Sayol F, Sol D, Lefebvre L
Integr Comp Biol . 2018 Aug; 58(5):929-938. PMID: 30102409
Although urbanization is a major threat to biodiversity, some species are able to thrive in cities. This might be because they have specific adaptations to urban conditions, because they are...

Giraudeau M, Bonzom J, Ducatez S, Beaugelin-Seiller K, Deviche P, Lengagne T, et al.
Sci Rep . 2018 May; 8(1):7438. PMID: 29743616
The nuclear accident in the Fukushima prefecture released a large amount of artificial radionuclides that might have short- and long-term biological effects on wildlife. Ionizing radiation can be a harmful...

Audet J, Kayello L, Ducatez S, Perillo S, Cauchard L, Howard J, et al.
Sci Adv . 2018 Mar; 4(3):eaao6369. PMID: 29546239
Problem solving and innovation are key components of intelligence. We compare wild-caught individuals from two species that are close relatives of Darwin's finches, the innovative , and its most closely...

Ducatez S, Giraudeau M, Thebaud C, Jacquin L
Glob Chang Biol . 2017 Apr; 23(8):3030-3039. PMID: 28452164
Colour polymorphisms have played a major role in enhancing current understanding of how selection and demography can impact phenotypes. Because different morphs often display alternative strategies and exploit alternative ecological...

Giraudeau M, Ducatez S
Biol Lett . 2016 Nov; 12(11). PMID: 27852943
Mothers can shape the developmental trajectory of their offspring through the transmission of resources such as hormones, antioxidants or immunoglobulins. Over the last two decades, an abundant literature on maternal...
