Connectivity is classically considered an emergent property of landscapes encapsulating
individuals' flows across space. However, its operational use requires a precise …

Dispersal is a process of central importance for the ecological and evolutionary dynamics of
populations and communities, because of its diverse consequences for gene flow and …

Habitat fragmentation, an important element of current global change, has profound
repercussions on population and species extinction. Landscape fragmentation reduces …

The extent to which the age of parents at reproduction can affect offspring lifespan and other
fitness-related traits is important in our understanding of the selective forces sha** life …

For most organisms, early life‐history stages are the most sensitive to environmental stress
and so transgenerational phenotypic plasticity, whereby the parental environment and …

An enormous amount of work has been done on aging in Drosophila melanogaster, a
classical genetic and molecular model system, but also in numerous other insects. However …

The conditions under which individuals are reared vary and sensitivity of offspring to such
variation is often sex-dependent. Parental age is one important natal condition with …

Extremely hot events (usually involving a few hours at extreme high temperatures in
summer) are expected to increase in frequency in temperate regions under global warming …

Background Although in all sexually reproducing organisms an individual has a mother and
a father, non-genetic inheritance has been predominantly studied in mothers. Paternal …

Dispersal, ie movements potentially leading to gene flow, is central in evolutionary ecology.
Many factors can trigger dispersal, all linked to the social and/or the environmental context …
