Botero Delgadillo, Esteban; Quirici, Verónica; Poblete, Yanina; Poulin, Elie; Kempenaers, Bart; Vásquez, Rodrigo A. (Wiley, 2020)Studies on the relationship between behavioral traits and dispersal are necessary to understand the evolution of dispersal syndromes. Empirical studies have mainly focused on natal dispersal, even though behavioral ...

Botero Delgadillo, Esteban; Quirici, Verónica; Poblete, Yanina; Ippi, Silvina; Kempenaers, Bart; Vásquez Salfate, Rodrigo (Wiley, 2020)Studies on extrapair paternity (EPP) are key to understanding the ecological and evolutionary drivers of variation in avian mating strategies, but information is currently lacking for most tropical and subtropical taxa. ...

Botero Delgadillo, Esteban; Quirici, Verónica; Vásquez Morales, Rodrigo; Kempenaers, Bart (Oxford University Press, 2020)Heterozygosity-fitness correlations (HFCs) have been used to monitor the effects of inbreeding in threatened populations. HFCs can also be useful to investigate the potential effects of inbreeding in isolated relict ...

Cuevas, Elfego; Vianna, Juliana A.; Botero Delgadillo, Esteban; Doussang, Daniela; González Acuña, Daniel; Barroso, Omar; Rozzi, Ricardo; Vásquez Salfate, Rodrigo; Quirici, Verónica (Elsevier, 2020)Latitudinal gradients are well-suited systems that may be helpful explaining distribution of haemosporidian parasites and host susceptibility. We studied the prevalence, diversity and drivers of haemosporidian parasites ...

Duclos, Melanie; Sabat, Pablo; Newsome, Seth D.; Pavez, Eduardo F.; Galbán-Malagón, Cristóbal; Jaksic, Fabian M.; Quirici, Verónica (Elsevier, 2020)Human-dominated environments alter the availability and quality of resources for many species, especially for scavengers that have large home ranges and plastic foraging behaviors that enable them to exploit novel resources. ...

Botero Delgadillo, Esteban; Quirici, Verónica; Poblete, Yanina; Acevedo, Matías; Cuevas, Elfego; Bravo, Camila; Cragnolini, Margherita; Rozzi, Ricardo; Poulin, Elie; Mueller, Jakob C.; Kempenaers, Bart; Vásquez Morales, Rodrigo (Nature, 2020)Understanding the population genetic consequences of habitat heterogeneity requires assessing whether patterns of gene flow correspond to landscape configuration. Studies of the genetic structure of populations are still ...

Espíndola Hernández, Pamela; Castaño Villa, Gabriel J.; Vásquez Salfate, Rodrigo; Quirici, Verónica (Springer Verlag, 2017)In birds, the frequency with which the parents feed the young can vary considerably. Because of sexual differences in the begging behaviour and/or differences in the food requirements of the nestlings, brood sex ratio ...

Kelt, Douglas A.; Cofré, Hernán; Cornelius, Cintia; Engilis, Andrew; Gutiérrez, Julio R.; Marquet, Pablo A.; Medel Contreras, Rodrigo; Meserve, Peter L.; Quirici, Verónica; Samaniego, Horacio; Vásquez Salfate, Rodrigo (Academic Press, 2016)© 2015 Elsevier Ltd. The avifauna of Chile is relatively depauperate, comprising 469 extant species, of which 213 are terrestrial. However, the Coquimbo Region presents a broad ecological transition from the hyperarid ...

Botero Delgadillo, Esteban; Quirici, Verónica; Poblete, Yanina; Cuevas, Elfego; Kuhn, Sylvia; Girg, Alexander; Teltscher, Kim; Poulin, Elie; Kempenaers, Bart; Vásquez Salfate, Rodrigo (Wiley, 2017)The distribution of suitable habitat influences natal and breeding dispersal at small spatial scales, resulting in strong microgeographic genetic structure. Although environmental variation can promote interpopulation ...
