Effects of Elevated Prenatal Progesterone on Postnatal Emotional Reactivity in Bobwhite Quail (Colinus Virginianus) Neonates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Non-genetic maternal influences on prenatal development have a significant effect on the development of early life behavior. This study assessed the behavioral effect of elevated prenatal progesterone on postnatal emotional reactivity, or underlying fear

Hunting impacts male wild turkey space use and resource selection: insights from a hunted and non‐hunted population

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue S1, December 2025.
Male wild turkeys modify their behavior in response to hunting pressure, yet most studies have inferred these effects using only hunted populations. We compared movement and habitat selection of males in a hunted population and a non‐hunted population in South Carolina, USA.

Altered embryonic development in northern bobwhite quail (Colinus virginianus) induced by pre-incubation oscillatory thermal stresses mimicking global warming predictions

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Global warming is likely to alter reproductive success of ground-nesting birds that lay eggs normally left unattended for days or even weeks before actual parental incubation, especially in already warm climates. The native North American bobwhite quail (

Use of stable isotopes to distinguish wild from pen‐raised northern bobwhite

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2017
Stocking pen‐raised northern bobwhite (Colinus virginianus) into habitats inhabited by wild bobwhite is a widespread practice, yet no technique other than marking exists to distinguish between these birds when they are harvested or recaptured.

Map-based isolation of the leaf rust disease resistance gene Lr10 from the hexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
More than 50 leaf rust resistance W) genes against the fungal pathogen Puccinia triticina have been identified in the wheat gene pool, and a large number of them have been extensively used in breeding.

Comparing nesting rate and space use between extant and translocated eastern wild turkeys

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 49, Issue S1, December 2025.
Female wild turkeys that are translocated to a site without conspecifics already present have increased range sizes and lower nesting rates when compared to extant or females translocated with conspecifics already present. This means that translocations should either translocate wild turkeys to areas where wild turkeys are already present or focus on ...

Partial meso-mammal predator removal positively affects northern bobwhite reproduction

open access: yesWildlife Biology, 2018
Perceived changes in predator—prey dynamics along with documented declines of northern bobwhite Colinus virginianus have created a renewed interest from biologists and managers about the role meso-mammals play in shaping bobwhite population trajectories.

Protein Requirement of the Bobwhite Chick

open access: yesPoultry Science, 1973
Abstract Two experiments were conducted in batteries with raised wire floors to study the protein requirement of Bobwhite (Colinus virginianus) chicks from one day to nine weeks of age. Chicks were fed protein levels ranging from 20 to 30% in a corn-soya diet.
