Social network centrality predicts dietary decisions in a wild bird population

Autor: Keith McMahon, Nicola M. Marples, Lewis G. Spurgin, Hannah M. Rowland, Ben C. Sheldon, Josh A. Firth

Publikováno v: iScience, Vol 27, Iss 5, Pp 109581- (2024)

Summary: How individuals balance costs and benefits of group living remains central to understanding sociality. In relation to diet, social foraging provides many advantages but also increases competition. Nevertheless, social individuals may offset

An investigation of Mycobacterium bovis and helminth coinfection in the European badger Meles meles

Autor: David J. Kelly, Nicola M. Marples, Rachel L. Byrne, Ursula Fogarty, Kevin Kenny, Henrietta Cameron, Denise Griffin, Celia V. Holland

Publikováno v: International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, Vol 19, Iss , Pp 311-316 (2022)

We investigated the relationship between the presence of helminth parasites in European badgers, and their tuberculosis (TB) status, culled as part of the bovine TB eradication programme in Ireland. Data on the worm burden or faecal egg or larval cou

Dispersal patterns in a medium‐density Irish badger population: Implications for understanding the dynamics of tuberculosis transmission

Autor: Aoibheann Gaughran, Teresa MacWhite, Enda Mullen, Peter Maher, David J. Kelly, Margaret Good, Nicola M. Marples

Publikováno v: Ecology and Evolution, Vol 9, Iss 23, Pp 13142-13152 (2019)

Abstract European badgers (Meles meles) are group‐living mustelids implicated in the spread of bovine tuberculosis (TB) to cattle and act as a wildlife reservoir for the disease. In badgers, only a minority of individuals disperse from their natal

A comparison of helminth infections as assessed through coprological analysis and adult worm burdens in a wild host

Autor: Rachel L. Byrne, Ursula Fogarty, Andrew Mooney, Nicola M. Marples, Celia V. Holland

Publikováno v: International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, Vol 7, Iss 3, Pp 439-444 (2018)

Coprological analysis is the most widely used diagnostic tool for helminth infection in both domestic and wild mammals. Evaluation of the efficacy of this technique is rare, due to the lack of availability of adult worm burden. Where information is a

Badger territoriality maintained despite disturbance of major road construction.

Autor: Aoibheann Gaughran, Enda Mullen, Teresa MacWhite, Peter Maher, David J Kelly, Ruth Kelly, Margaret Good, Nicola M Marples

Publikováno v: PLoS ONE, Vol 16, Iss 9, p e0242586 (2021)

Road ecology has traditionally focused on the impact of in-situ and functional roads on wildlife. However, road construction also poses a major, yet understudied, threat and the implications for key aspects of animal behaviour are unknown. Badgers (M

Small islands and large biogeographic barriers have driven contrasting speciation patterns in Indo-Pacific sunbirds (Aves: Nectariniidae)

Autor: Fionn Ó Marcaigh, David J Kelly, Darren P O’Connell, Kangkuso Analuddin, Adi Karya, Jennifer McCloughan, Ellen Tolan, Naomi Lawless, Nicola M Marples

Publikováno v: Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society. 198:72-92

Birds of the Indo-Pacific have provided biologists with many foundational insights. This study presents evidence for strong phylogeographic structure in two sunbird species from the heart of this region, the olive-backed sunbird, Cinnyris jugularis,

Super-ranging. A new ranging strategy in European badgers.

Autor: Aoibheann Gaughran, David J Kelly, Teresa MacWhite, Enda Mullen, Peter Maher, Margaret Good, Nicola M Marples

Publikováno v: PLoS ONE, Vol 13, Iss 2, p e0191818 (2018)

We monitored the ranging of a wild European badger (Meles meles) population over 7 years using GPS tracking collars. Badger range sizes varied seasonally and reached their maximum in June, July and August. We analysed the summer ranging behaviour, us
