Northern Bobwhite (Colinus virginianus) Mitochondrial Population Genomics Reveals Structure, Divergence, and Evidence for Heteroplasmy. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Herein, we evaluated the concordance of population inferences and conclusions resulting from the analysis of short mitochondrial fragments (i.e., partial or complete D-Loop nucleotide sequences) versus complete mitogenome sequences for 53 bobwhites ...

Response of Northern bobwhite (Colinus virginianus) and two parasitic nematode populations in western Oklahoma to anthelmintic supplemental feed [PDF]

International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife
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 ...

Use of integrated population models for assessing density-dependence and juvenile survival in Northern Bobwhites (Colinus virginianus) [PDF]

PeerJ
Management of wildlife populations is most effective with a thorough understanding of the interplay among vital rates, population growth, and density-dependent feedback; however, measuring all relevant vital rates and assessing density-dependence can ...

The invertebrate diet of northern bobwhite chicks in Georgia, United States [PDF]

Animal Biodiversity and Conservation, 2012
The establishment of brood–rearing habitats along field margins has become a popular agri–environmental prescription to help reverse population declines of northern bobwhite (Colinus virginianus) in Georgia, United States.

Bobwhite quail (Colinus virginianus) hatchlings track the direction of human gaze. [PDF]

Anim Cogn, 2009
Gaze following allows individuals to detect the locus of attention of both conspecifics and other species. However, little is known about how this ability develops. We explored the emergence of bobwhite quail hatchlings' ability to track human gaze by assessing their avoidance behavior in an open arena under five testing conditions: (1) a Direct Gaze ...

Vegetation structure linked to nest site selection and nest survival of northern bobwhite

Wildlife Society Bulletin
Nesting success of northern bobwhites (Colinus virginianus) is related to the interaction of habitat and predators because vegetation can act as a buffer to obscure visual and olfactory nest cues.

Understanding how diel and seasonal rhythms affect the movements of a small non‐migratory bird

Ecosphere, 2022
Diel and seasonal rhythms affect an animal's environment and life history. Understanding how these rhythms influence movement increases our knowledge on how animals adjust to changing resources, environmental conditions, and risk to their survival.

Histochemical study of proventriculus in pre-hatch and post-hatch days in northern bobwhite quail (Colinus virginianus) [PDF]

Iraqi Journal of Veterinary Sciences, 2022
The present study was designed to investigate the histochemical developmental changes of the proventriculus at pre-hatching and post-hatching in the northern bobwhite quail at periods 11- and 15-days pre-hatching in addition to 14- and 21-days post ...

Factors Influencing Trapping Success of Northern Bobwhites

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2020
Capturing animals is a critical component of many ecological research projects. Factors that increase capture success can save time, money, and improve inference.
