Predator–prey interactions as key drivers for the invasion success of a potentially neurotoxic sea slug
Only a fraction of the species that are introduced succeed in the non-native environment,
while others fail to survive, reproduce and/or disperse. Understanding the causes underlying …

Links between reproduction and immunity in two sympatric wild marine fishes
According to life-history theory, limited resources can result in trade-offs between costly
physiological functions. Particularly, it can be expected that individuals present lower …
