Temporal stability of sex ratio distorter prevalence in natural populations of the isopod Armadillidium vulgare

S. Durand, R. Pigeault, I. Giraud, A. Loisier, N. Bech, F. Grandjean, T. Rigaud, J. Peccoud, R. Cordaux

The paper examines the temporal stability of sex ratio distorter prevalence in Armadillidium vulgare populations over 12 years, finding little temporal variability and evidence of equilibria in SRD dynamics.

Spring reproductive success influences autumnal malarial load in a passerine bird

R. Pigeault, C.-S. Cozzarolo, J. Wassef, J. Gremion, M. Bastardot, O. Glaizot, P. Christe

The study examines how spring reproductive success affects autumnal malarial load in great tits, finding that higher reproductive output correlates with increased parasitemia in autumn.

Predator avoidance and foraging for food shape synchrony and response to perturbations in trophic metacommunities

P. Quevreux, R. Pigeault, M. Loreau

This paper models how predator avoidance and foraging influence dispersal rates in trophic metacommunities, showing that density-dependent dispersal alters spatial synchrony and response to perturbations.

Determinants of haemosporidian single and co-infections risks in western paleartic birds

R. Pigeault, M. Chevalier, C.-s. Cozzarolo, M. Baur, M. Arlettaz, A. Cibois, A. Keiser, A. Guisan, P. Christe, O. Glaizot

This study investigates factors influencing single and co-infection risks by haemosporidian parasites in western Palearctic birds using phylogenetic and ecological data.

Gene regulation of the avian malaria parasite Plasmodium relictum, during the different stages within the mosquito vector

V. Sekar, A. Rivero, R. Pigeault, S. Gandon, A. Drews, D. Ahren, O. Hellgren

This study examines gene regulation of Plasmodium relictum in its mosquito vector at different life stages, identifying stage-specific gene expression and novel genes.

Last-come, best served? Mosquito biting order and Plasmodium transmission

J. Isaïa, A. Rivero, O. Glaizot, P. Christe, R. Pigeault

This study shows that Plasmodium parasites increase their transmission efficiency in mosquitoes bitten later during a feeding session, suggesting an adaptive response to biting order.

Opening Pandora’s Box: Distribution of Plasmodium gametocytes in bloodstream

R. Pigeault, J. Isaia, S. R. Yerbanga, R. D. Kounbobr, J. B. Ouedraogo, A. Cohuet, T. Lefevre, P. Christe

The paper shows that gametocyte distribution varies within vertebrate hosts, leading to uncertainty in transmission potential estimates from single blood samples.

Timing malaria transmission with mosquito fluctuations

R. Pigeault, Q. Caudron, A. Nicot, A. Rivero, S. Gandon

This study tests the Hawking hypothesis by showing Plasmodium relictum uses two strategies to align transmission with mosquito activity, detecting periodic parasitaemia increases in the late afternoon and a positive effect of mosquito bites on replication.
