EBE focuses on pheromones involved in conspecific recognition among insects but also on the role of chemicals in insect-plants interactions (chemical defense, chemical mimicry);</li> \r\n<li>problems of biodiversity conservation are studied in the local area and in tropical forest ecosystems. At a local scale (Brussels and suburbs), EBE is interested in the distribution and behaviour of endangered species, which require to study potential competitors in expansion (invasive species). Bats, birds and ladybirds belong to the focus groups. In tropical forest, focus groups are termites and ants but also trees, on wich an evaluation is conducted of the biodiversity and its variations depending on natural environment conditions and human activities impact;</li> \r\n<li>evaluation and own development of available statistical tools to characterise the organisation of genetic diversity and identify the processes involved (genetic drift, dispersal, mutation, selection). Study of the genetic structure of societies and populations of social insects (ants, termites), and their social consequences in terms of reproductive strategies. Phylogeographic studies are conducted, at the interface between populations and species, to gain insights into the geographic distribution of genetic variation and on the mechanisms of speciation;</li> \r\n<li>gaining of a deeper understanding of the principles that lead evolution of animal societies and the ecological consequences of social life: organisation of societies, reproductive strategies and conflicts within groups. These researches focus on social insects (ants, termites), using several approaches as behaviour, ecology and genetics;</li> \r\n<li>studies of alpha taxonomy (identification and description of genus and species) are made in part for their own interest (inventory of living organisms), but also as a basis for studies on biodiversity estimation. Building of phylogenies, thanks to genetic tools, allows to elaborate evolution outlines for other features: social organisation, behaviour, reproduction.</li> </ul>\r\n\r\nWithin these research activities, marine research topics studied are:\r\n<ul><li>biology and conservation of marine turtles;</li><li>delimitation of marine species using molecular markers and morphology;</li> \r\n<li>genome assembly and analyses of marine species, with implications for fisheries in the case of species of economic importance;</li> \r\n<li>search for novel enzymes and other natural products (such as antibiotics) in the genomes of marine species (e.g., sponge-associated bacteria);</li> \r\n<li>phenotypic and physiological plasticity of marine species (such as coral holobionts);</li> \r\n<li>comparative analyses of genome sizes in marine organisms, trophic chains in the sea.

EBE richt zich op feromonen die betrokken zijn bij conspecifieke herkenning onder insecten, maar ook op de rol van chemische stoffen in interacties tussen insecten en planten (chemische verdediging, chemische mimicry);</li><li>problemen rond het behoud van biodiversiteit worden bestudeerd op lokaal niveau en in ecosystemen van tropische bossen. Op lokale schaal (Brussel en voorsteden) is EBE geïnteresseerd in de verspreiding en het gedrag van bedreigde soorten, waarbij potentiële concurrenten bij hun expansie moeten worden bestudeerd (invasieve soorten). Vleermuizen, vogels en lieveheersbeestjes behoren tot de focusgroepen. In tropische wouden zijn de aandachtsgroepen termieten en mieren, maar ook bomen, waarop de biodiversiteit en de variaties daarvan afhankelijk van de natuurlijke milieuomstandigheden en de invloed van menselijke activiteiten worden geëvalueerd;</li> \r\n<li>evaluatie en ontwikkeling van de beschikbare statistische instrumenten om de organisatie van genetische diversiteit te karakteriseren en de betrokken processen te identificeren (genetische drift, verspreiding, mutatie, selectie). Studie van de genetische structuur van samenlevingen en populaties van sociale insecten (mieren, termieten) en de sociale gevolgen daarvan in termen van voortplantingsstrategieën. Er worden fylogeografische studies uitgevoerd op het raakvlak tussen populaties en soorten, om inzicht te krijgen in de geografische verspreiding van genetische variatie en in de mechanismen van soortvorming;</li> \r\n<li>het verwerven van een dieper inzicht in de principes die ten grondslag liggen aan de evolutie van dierlijke samenlevingen en de ecologische gevolgen van het sociale leven: organisatie van samenlevingen, voortplantingsstrategieën en conflicten binnen groepen. Deze onderzoeken richten zich op sociale insecten (mieren, termieten), waarbij verschillende benaderingen worden gebruikt zoals gedrag, ecologie en genetica;</li> \r\n<li>studies van de alfataxonomie (identificatie en beschrijving van genus en soorten) worden deels uitgevoerd in hun eigen belang (inventarisatie van levende organismen), maar ook als basis voor studies over het inschatten van de biodiversiteit. Het opbouwen van fylogenieën, dankzij genetische instrumenten, maakt het mogelijk evolutieschema's uit te werken voor andere kenmerken: sociale organisatie, gedrag, voortplanting.</li> </ul>\r\n\r\nBinnen deze onderzoeksactiviteiten zijn de bestudeerde mariene onderzoeksthema's:\r\n<ul><li>biologie en behoud van zeeschildpadden;</li><li>afbakening van mariene soorten aan de hand van moleculaire merkers en morfologie;</li> \r\n<li>genome-assemblage en analyses van mariene soorten, met gevolgen voor de visserij in het geval van economisch belangrijke soorten;</li> \r\n<li>zoeken naar nieuwe enzymen en andere natuurlijke producten (zoals antibiotica) in het genoom van mariene soorten (bv. sponsgeassocieerde bacteriën);</li> \r\n<li>fenotypische en fysiologische plasticiteit van mariene soorten (zoals holobionten van koralen);</li> \r\n<li>vergelijkende analyses van genoomgroottes bij mariene organismen, trofische ketens in de zee.
