Stress and body condition as prenatal and postnatal determinants of dispersal in the common lizard (Lacerta vivipara)Sandrine Meylan
Laboratoire d Ecologie, CNRS UMR 7625, Universite Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris, France
Horm Behav 42:319-26. 2002..Juvenile body condition favored dispersal, while there was no effect of postnatal corticosterone treatment on juvenile dispersal propensity...
Costs of mounting an immune response during pregnancy in a lizardSandrine Meylan
Laboratoire d Ecologie, Universite Pierre et Marie Curie, Unité Mixte de Recherche Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique 7625, 7 quai Saint Bernard, Case 237, F 75252 Paris, Cedex 05, France
Physiol Biochem Zool 86:127-36. 2013..Moreover, we demonstrated that the modulation of an immune challenge is impacted by intrinsic factors, such as body size and condition...- Physiological actions of corticosterone and its modulation by an immune challenge in reptilesSandrine Meylan
Laboratoire Ecologie et Evolution, Universite Pierre et Marie Curie, UMR CNRS 7625, Paris, France
Gen Comp Endocrinol 169:158-66. 2010..The injection of SRBC stimulated the SOD activity in larger females. Finally, we demonstrated experimentally the modulation of the corticosterone action by the immune challenge on stamina and hatching date... - Are dispersal-dependent behavioral traits produced by phenotypic plasticity?Sandrine Meylan
Laboratoire d Ecologie, UNIVERSITE DE PARIS, Paris, France
J Exp Zool A Ecol Genet Physiol 311:377-88. 2009.... - Is corticosterone-mediated phenotype development adaptive? Maternal corticosterone treatment enhances survival in male lizardsSandrine Meylan
Laboratoire d Ecologie Université Pierre et Marie Curie UMR 7625, 7, quai Saint Bernard Case 237 F 75252 Paris cedex 05, France
Horm Behav 48:44-52. 2005..Thus, corticosterone does not seem to have detrimental effects on offspring survival, suggesting that it may have an adaptive function... - Maternal effects on offspring locomotion: influence of density and corticosterone elevation in the lizard Lacerta viviparaSandrine Meylan
Laboratoire d Ecologie, Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique Unité Mixte de Recherche 7625, Universite de Paris VI, Case 237, 7 quai Saint Bernard 75252 Paris, France
Physiol Biochem Zool 77:450-8. 2004..We conclude, therefore, that the action of corticosterone on sprint speed could be more behavioral than physiological. Offspring phenotype as measured by endurance and sprint speed appeared partly under maternal control... - The effect of transdermal corticosterone application on plasma corticosterone levels in pregnant Lacerta viviparaS Meylan
Laboratoire d Ecologie, CNRS UMR 7625, Universite P et M Curie, Paris, France
Comp Biochem Physiol A Mol Integr Physiol 134:497-503. 2003..Basal plasma levels of corticosterone in pregnant females varied among individuals independently of female body size or corpulence... - Food deprivation modifies corticosterone-dependent behavioural shifts in the common lizardJ Cote
Laboratoire Fonctionnement et Evolution des Systemes Ecologiques, UMR 7625, Universite Pierre et Marie Curie, 7, quai Saint Bernard, 75005 Paris, France
Gen Comp Endocrinol 166:142-51. 2010..These behavioural modifications did not occur in food-deprived lizards. This inactivation of stress-related behavioural changes probably allows the lizard to save energy... - Carotenoid-based coloration, oxidative stress and corticosterone in common lizardsJ Cote
Laboratoire Ecologie et Evolution, UMR 7625 Université Pierre et Marie Curie, 7, quai Saint Bernard, 75005 Paris, France
J Exp Biol 213:2116-24. 2010.... - Experimental evidence of early costs of reproduction in conspecific viviparous and oviparous lizardsJ Bleu
CNRS UPMC ENS UMR 7625, Laboratoire Ecologie et Evolution, Paris, France
J Evol Biol 25:1264-74. 2012..Such an ability to compensate the higher costs of a longer egg retention period may account for the frequent evolution of viviparity in squamate reptiles... - Experimental enhancement of corticosterone levels positively affects subsequent male survivalJ Cote
Laboratoire Fonctionnement et Evolution des Systemes Ecologiques, Universite Pierre et Marie Curie, quai Saint Bernard, Batiment A, Paris, France
Horm Behav 49:320-7. 2006..This suggests that the production of corticosterone as a response to a stressor may be an adaptive mechanism that even controls survival... - Ontogenic sources of variation in sexual size dimorphism in a viviparous lizardJ F Le Galliard
Laboratoire Fonctionnement et Evolution des Systemes Ecologiques, Universite Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris, France
J Evol Biol 19:690-704. 2006..We discuss the possibility that viviparity may constrain the evolution of sex-biased maternal effects on offspring size... - Is sexual dimorphism affected by the combined action of prenatal stress and sex ratio?Tobias Uller
Department of Zoology, Goteborg University, Sweden
J Exp Zool A Comp Exp Biol 303:1110-4. 2005..Embryonic steroid exposure can potentially be an important factor in generating individual variation in natural populations of viviparous animals... - Prenatal and postnatal effects of corticosterone on behavior in juveniles of the common lizard, Lacerta viviparaJosabel Belliure
