Dans le cadre de la conférence internationale de Zoologie, la SFECA organise un symposium sur le thème « Plasticité phénotypique et comportement ».
Phenotypic plasticity and Behaviour
According to environmental conditions, a genotype can lead to different phenotypes which will affect the morphology, the physiology or the behaviour of organisms. Behavioural plasticity can be found in many taxa, in a wide range of contexts (parental care, reproduction, social behaviour, foraging behaviour, dispersion as well as cognition).
The three key-note speakers will consider and illustrate such a diversity in this symposium:
- P. Jaisson, Université Paris 13 : " The nature/nurture dilemma revisited by clonal ants"
- Michael D. Greenfield, Université François Rabelais, Tours : "Phenotypic plasticity, genotype x environment interaction, and the (un)reliability of animal mating signals"
- Sue Healy, University of Edinburgh "Sex difference in cognition"
Nous vous invitons à soumettre dès maintenant vos résumés de communication sur ce thème.
Abstract instructions and submission
Deadline for Abstract Submission : 1st April 2008.
The web page for abstract submission linked to registration will open on 1st December 2007. Early registration and abstract submission will terminate on 1st April 2008.
Abstracts must be submitted for all poster and oral presentations, including symposium contributions.
Only contributions by authors who have paid registration fees will be accepted.
Submission format
Abstracts must not exceed 250 words, excluding the names and addresses of authors, and the title. The first line should contain the abstract title. The second line should contain the names of authors (the name of the presenting author should be marked with an asterisk). This line should be followed by a list of author affiliations and current addresses. Each author and their corresponding address should be identified with numbered superscripts.
All abstracts will be reviewed and edited by an editorial committee.Information confirming acceptance of the abstract, type of contribution (poster, oral, symposium) and date/time of presentation will be sent to the corresponding author. Depending on the scheduling possibilities, the local committee will decide between oral and poster. Minor revisions of style, grammar, and spelling will be done for clarity and consistency when necessary without notification of the authors. If you do not want your abstract to be edited without notification, please indicate so on the submission form.
