Warming and the loss of genetic diversity are two major components of global change for which the combined effects on the productivity and the size distribution of ectotherms have rarely been investigated. However, because genetic diversity should make populations more resilient to environmental changes, the loss of genetic diversity within populations could amplify the impacts of warming on ectotherm populations. Here, we fil...

Recent studies have highlighted associations between diseases and host microbiota. It remains extremely challenging – especially under natural conditions – to clarify whether host microbiota promote future infections, or whether changes in host microbiota result from infections. Nonetheless, deciphering between these two processes is essential for highlighting the role of microbes in disease progression. We longitudinally surv...
