The World’s biodiversity faces major threats which have resulted in an extensive crisis. Invasive species have been identified as one of the main threats to biodiversity worldwide and Australia is no exception. Managing the impacts of invasive species requires that conservation managers spend limited time and economic re-sources understanding the multiple dimensions of species management. Overlooking the local economic, eco-logical, and social dimensions could jeopardise the project before it is even implemented. In essence, the path seems to be straightforward: “1) gather some information, 2) create management alternatives, 3) implement some actions, and 4) celebrate success”. In this talk, my aim is to discuss the multidimensional challenge that conservation managers face and present some of the work I did in Australia to help decision-makers with two of the most threatening species to the native Australian fauna: feral cats and red foxes. I will start by introducing an approach to create, assess, and select competing management actions alongside the local community, based on adaptive management principles and INFFER, a cost-benefit analysis tool. To then discuss two modelling approaches to assess the possible ecosystem outcomes from implementing the preferred conservation actions. By following this approach, we were able to provide valuable information to local practitioners regarding local conservation preferences, financial requirements, and the effort needed to manage invasive species; before jeopardising limited funding to actions that may not achieve local conservation goals. More importantly, it helped us to secure long-term commitment by empowering the local community to participate in species man-agement planning.

Le réchauffement climatique soumet les écosystèmes aquatiques dont les écosystèmes côtiers à des contraintes fortes, dont l'une est une tendance à la sur- ou même l'hypersalinité. Les fonctions biologiques des organismes soumis à ces contraintes sont fortement affectées et des conséquences peuvent être observées au niveau des individus, des populations et des écosystèmes. Dans cet exposé, nous nous focaliserons essentiellement sur le cas d'un fleuve et d'un estuaire complexe d'Afrique de l'Ouest, le Sine Saloum, et d'un tilapia euryhalin (Sarotherodon melanotheron) et nous proposerons une revue des impacts causés par le stress salin sur les traits de vie de ce poisson ainsi que des corrélats au niveau moléculaire. Nous présenterons quelques résultats originaux et esquisserons des pistes pour des études éco-évolutives.

Transposable elements are widespread genomic parasites, and the archetypal example of a selfish gene, which can impose large fitness costs on their hosts. The key to their long-term persistence may therefore be the ability to spread between hosts, as exemplified by the invasion of Drosophila melanogaster by the P-element. This transposable element originated in a distant relative and spread through D. melanogaster in the latter half of the 20th century. Recently, we discovered a second invasion of a Drosophila species by the P-element. We find that the P-element spread through D. simulans rapidly and nearly simultaneously on three continents, with strains containing P-elements being rare in 2006 and common by 2014. Remarkably, the flies appear to have evolved to adapt to the presence of the P-element in this short time frame: fly strains collected from the early phase of this invasion are vulnerable to DNA damage from the P-element, while those from the latter phase are not. We investigate the genetic basis of this resistance, and find it appears to have little to do with the small RNA defence usually invoked in transposable element suppression.

This seems like a simple question that was answered a long time ago. The more I read howe-ver, the less confident I am that we actually know why organisms are the size they are. I have been trying to understand the proximate and ultimate drivers of biological size. Using a se-ries of artificial selection experiments, experimental evolution and comparative analyses, I have been exploring both the causes and consequences of size, mostly using fish, E. coli, and phytoplankton. In this talk, I will argue that many of the more famous models of growth have assumptions that don’t match reality, with calamitous consequences for the management of exploited species. Hopefully, I will show that better understanding of growth and size is es-sential if we are to predict the impacts of human activities on biology.
