Geographical and Historical Patterns in the Emergences of Novel Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) H5 and H7 Viruses in Poultry.
Madhur S. Dhingra,Madhur S. Dhingra,Jean Artois,Simon Dellicour,Philippe Lemey,Gwenaelle Dauphin,Sophie Von Dobschuetz,Thomas P. Van Boeckel,Thomas P. Van Boeckel,David Castellan,Subhash Morzaria,Marius Gilbert +11 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that novel HPAI emergences by these two mechanisms occur in different ecological niches, with different viral, environmental and host associated factors, which has implications in early detection and management and mitigation of the risk of emergence of novel H PAI viruses.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: It is suggested that the “ancestral Wuhan B-type virus is immunologically or environmentally adapted to a large section of the East Asian population, and may need to mutate to overcome resistance outside East …”
Journal ArticleDOI
Scent of a break-up: phylogeography and reproductive trait divergences in the red-tailed bumblebee ( Bombus lapidarius )
Thomas Lecocq,Simon Dellicour,Denis Michez,Patrick Lhomme,Maryse Vanderplanck,Irena Valterová,Jean-Yves Rasplus,Pierre Rasmont +7 more
TL;DR: This study suggests that population movement during Quaternary climatic oscillations can lead to divergence in reproductive traits by allopatric differentiation during Ice Ages and by reinforcement during post-glacial recolonization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using Viral Gene Sequences to Compare and Explain the Heterogeneous Spatial Dynamics of Virus Epidemics.
Simon Dellicour,Rebecca Rose,Nuno R. Faria,Luiz Fernando Pereira Vieira,Hervé Bourhy,Marius Gilbert,Philippe Lemey,Oliver G. Pybus +7 more
TL;DR: This study shows that phylogenetically informed viral movements can be used to elucidate the factors that impact virus dispersal, opening new opportunities for a better understanding of the impact of host species and environmental conditions on the spatial dynamics of rapidly evolving populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Methods for species delimitation in bumblebees (Hymenoptera, Apidae, Bombus): towards an integrative approach
Thomas Lecocq,Simon Dellicour,Simon Dellicour,Denis Michez,Manuel Dehon,Alexandre Dewulf,Thibaut De Meulemeester,Nicolas Brasero,Irena Valterová,Jean-Yves Rasplus,Pierre Rasmont +10 more
TL;DR: Comparing taxonomic conclusions for a group of taxonomically doubtful species (the Bombus lapidarius‐group) obtained from the four commonly used lines of evidence for species delimitation in bumblebees shows that analyses based on wing shape do not delineate any obvious cluster, and nuclear/mitochondrial, sequence‐based species delimite methods, and analysesbased on cephalic labial gland secretions are congruent with each other.
