Foraging at night under artificial light: consequences on reproductive senescence and lifetime reproductive success for a diurnal insect

This study examines how artificial light at night affects the foraging and reproductive behavior of diurnal parasitoid wasps, finding increased nighttime activity and lifespan under high light intensity.

Age and spatio-temporal variations in food resources modulate stress-immunity relationships in three populations of wild roe deer

This study examines how age and environmental food resources affect the relationship between cortisol levels and immune markers in wild roe deer across three populations.

Deleterious effects of thermal and water stresses on life history and physiology: a case study on woodlouse

This study examines how thermal and water stresses affect life history and physiological traits in woodlice, finding reduced reproductive success and altered biomarkers under these stressors.

Glucocorticoids negatively relate to body mass on the short-term in a free-ranging ungulate

The paper examines the relationship between baseline glucocorticoid levels and body mass in roe deer, finding a negative correlation that persists across different environmental contexts.

Body mass change over winter is consistently sex-specific across roe deer (Capreolus capreolus) populations

The paper examines sex-specific body mass changes in roe deer over winter across different populations, finding males lose more mass than females, reducing sexual dimorphism before the mating season.

Sex chromosomes, sex ratios and sex gaps in longevity in plants

The paper investigates the relationship between sex chromosomes and sex gaps in longevity in plants using adult sex ratios as a proxy across 43 species.

Is degree of sociality associated with reproductive senescence? A comparative analysis across birds and mammals

This study investigates whether sociality degree is linked to reproductive senescence in birds and mammals, finding weak associations after accounting for body size and pace of life.

Epigenetic clock and DNA methylation studies of roe deer in the wild

This study develops epigenetic clocks for roe deer to assess how environment and sex influence DNA methylation aging in wild populations.

The crustacean Armadillidium vulgare (Latreille, 1804) (Isopoda: Oniscoidea), a new promising model for the study of cellular senescence

This study examines age-related changes in vertebrate senescence biomarkers in the woodlouse Armadillidium vulgare, finding gender-dependent patterns that support the use of vertebrate tools in invertebrate senescence research.

Population position along the fast-slow life-history continuum predicts intraspecific variation in actuarial senescence

This study shows that population position along the fast-slow life-history continuum predicts differences in senescence onset and rate in wild Bombina variegata populations.

Slow life-history strategies are associated with negligible actuarial senescence in western Palearctic salamanders

This study shows that western Palearctic salamanders exhibit negligible actuarial senescence, consistent with their slow life history and high regenerative abilities.

Impact of temperature and photoperiod on survival and biomarkers of senescence in common woodlouse

This study investigates how temperature and photoperiod affect senescence biomarkers and survival in common woodlouse, revealing sex-specific responses and environmental influences on aging patterns.
