Microbial endosymbiosis is widespread in animals, with major ecological and evolutionary
implications. Successful symbiosis relies on efficient vertical transmission through host …

Reproductive senescence is the decrease of reproductive performance with increasing age
and can potentially include trans‐generational effects as the offspring produced by old …

We tested independently the influences of increasing temperature and decreasing moisture
on life history and physiological traits in the arthropod Armadillidium vulgare. Both …

Background In species that reproduce with sexual reproduction, males and females often
have opposite strategies to maximize their own fitness. For instance, males are typically …

Senescence, the decline of physiological parameters with increasing age, is a quasi-ubiquitous
phenomenon in the living world. The observed patterns of senescence, however, can …

Immune priming has been widely observed in invertebrates. However, this phenomenon
remains incompletely characterized concerning the time course of the protective effect and …

Senescence, the decline of physiological parameters with increasing age, is a quasi-20
ubiquitous phenomenon in the living world. However, the observed patterns of senescence 21 …

Most living organisms display a decline in physiological performances when ageing, a
process called senescence that is most often associated with increased mortality risk. Previous …

An essential tool in molecular ecology studies, the microsatellite markers allow the investigation
of the genetic structure of populations. Here, we developed a panel of 12 polymorphic …
