Two-generation common-garden experiment reveals a strong genetic contribution to migration tendency in brown trout (Salmo trutta)
Many salmonids, including brown trout (Salmo trutta), demonstrate alternative migration strategies under different environmental conditions, and as such, they are assumed to be predominantly facultative. Through experimental breeding for two generations, w ...
CANADIAN SCIENCE PUBLISHING2023Biogeoinformatics for the management of Farm Animal Genetic Resources (FAnGR)
In the context of both severe selection in farm animals and potential effects of climate change, it is crucial to implement a sustainable management of the breeding practice, supported by a judicious use of geographic information technologies. Based on thi ...
EPFL2020Task-dependent influence of genetic architecture and mating frequency on division of labour in social insect societies
Dario Floreano, Laurent Keller
Division of labour is one of the most prominent features of social insects. The efficient allocation of individuals to different tasks requires dynamic adjustment in response to environmental perturbations. Theoretical models suggest that the colony-level ...
Springer Verlag2010Biofuel production from microalgae by hydrothermal processing
Christian Ludwig, Rizlan Bernier-Latmani, Frédéric Vogel, Jean-Paul Schwitzguebel, Gabriela Anca Haiduc
Introduction: Microalgae cultures represent an attractive source of biomass for biofuel and chemicals production since they can have higher energy yields per area than conventional biomass crops and can be grown on marginal land using waste, saline, or bra ...
2010Influence of livestock grazing on meadow pipit foraging behaviour in upland grassland
Changes in grazing management are believed to be responsible for declines in populations of birds breeding in grassland over the last decades. The relationships between grazing management regimes, vegetation structure and composition and the availability o ...
