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

Caecal worm, Aulonocephalus pennula, infection in the northern bobwhite quail, Colinus virginianus [PDF]
Parasitic nematodes that infect quail have been understudied and long been dismissed as a problem in quail management. Within the Rolling Plains ecoregion of Texas, an area that has experienced quail population “boom and bust” cycles and ultimately a ...

Studies with Bobwhite Quail: Reproductive Characteristics
Abstract As part of a program exploring procedures for handling caged Bobwhite quail, we have examined certain reproductive characteristics; specifically 1) effect of length of egg storage on hatchability, 2) duration of fertility following removal of males, and 3) age at sexual maturity.

Response of Northern bobwhite (Colinus virginianus) and two parasitic nematode populations in western Oklahoma to anthelmintic supplemental feed [PDF]
It has been demonstrated that helminths are capable of critically impacting the fitness of their hosts. This has typically been shown experimentally through the administration of anthelmintic drugs but are rarely performed on a landscape or host ...
