Serum proteins of the Japanese quail, Coturnix coturnix Japonica
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Comparative Biochemistry, 1971Abstract 1. 1. Fractionation of quail serum indicated two major protein components, one of which was an albumin fraction, and the other, a large molecular weight lipoprotein fraction. 2. 2. Quail serum albumin was physically and immunologically similar to chicken serum albumin. 3. 3.

Perceptual compensation for coarticulation by Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica)
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1997When members of a series of synthesized stop consonants varying in third-formant (F3) characteristics and varying perceptually from /da/ to /ga/ are preceded by /al/, human listeners report hearing more /ga/ syllables than when the members of the series are preceded by /ar/.

The Annual Testicular Cycle of the Domestic Quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica)
Anatomia, Histologia, Embryologia, 1997SummaryA morphometric study was conducted on the testis of the domestic quail Coturnix coturnix japonica to determine testicular kinetics. We investigated the variability along the year of testicular parameters such as seminiferous tubule diameter, germinal epithelium height and amount of meiotic figures of maturing spermatids in the seminiferous ...

Morphological Characteristics of the Developing Cecum of Japanese Quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica)
Microscopy and Microanalysis, 2019The current investigation was carried out to record the final stages of the development of both middle and distal parts of quail ceca, Coturnix coturnix japonica to understand the role of ceca in digestion, immune system, and absorption. The cellular and

Hemiagenesis of the thyroid gland in the quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica)
Journal of Comparative Pathology, 1986Hemiagenesis of the thyroid occurred in a closed population of Japanese quails. The unilateral gland was histologically normal, occurred most frequently in females, was heavier than individual pairs of glands and the birds showed no clinical effects. Comparative aspects are discussed.

ANF binding sites in the heart of the quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica)
Peptides, 1993The distribution pattern of rat [125I]-atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) binding sites in the cardiac regions of the Japanese quail was examined by in vitro quantitative autoradiography. Elevated ANF binding densities (519 +/- 121 fmol/mg protein) were found in the posterior vena cava, while lower binding levels (between 40 and 50 fmol/mg protein) were ...

Unconditioned aggression in the Japanese quail, Coturnix coturnix japonica
Psychonomic Science, 1968Isolate, social, and social-isolate quail were paired to observe fighting, pecking, jumping and vocalization. Data showed a direct relationship between isolation and aggression. Slightly more consistent pecking was also recorded from the isolate birds.

Induction of parental behavior in Japanese Quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica).
Journal of Comparative and Physiological Psychology, 1976The Japanese quail is a precocial species, and because of its relatively rapid development, sexual maturation in about 40 days after hatching, and prolific breeding capacity, it promises to become an organism well suited for avian research. One stumbling block has been the inability to induce, with any consistency, parental behavior in laboratory ...

Drinking induced by cellular dehydration in the quail, Coturnix coturnix japonica
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Physiology, 19881. Drinking was induced in water-replete quail 5-10 min after intravenous injection of hypertonic NaCl (0.69 osmol/l) or sucrose (1.06 osmol/l), but hypertonic urea (2.78 osmol/l) failed to induce drinking. 2. The birds drank approximately the amount required to dilute the injected solutes to isotonicity for each given dose of NaCl or sucrose. 3.

Steroidogenesis in ovarian cells of the Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica)
General and Comparative Endocrinology, 1985The influence of follicular maturation on steroidogenesis and steroid metabolism by isolated Japanese quail granulosa and theca cells was examined. When stimulated with LH, granulosa cells of the largest follicle (F1) responded with a sixfold increase over unstimulated progesterone levels, whereas progesterone production in cells of F3 less than ...
