Harvest and crippling rates of mourning doves in Missouri

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2013
Mourning dove (Zenaida macroura) harvest management requires an assessment of birds shot and not recovered (hereafter, “crippled doves”) to fully determine harvest mortality. However, estimating crippling rates is challenging.

Using banding data to estimate primary feather molt and hatch chronology of white‐winged doves in Texas

Wildlife Society Bulletin, 2023
Banding data are commonly used to estimate vital rates for migratory game bird management. We used white‐winged dove (Zenaida asiatica) banding data to estimate molt and hatch chronology in Texas.

Response of forest Turtur doves to conspecific and congeneric songs in sympatry and allopatry

Scientific Reports, 2023
Birds have a diverse acoustic communication system, and the ability to recognise their own species’ song from a distance facilitates complex behaviours related to mate attraction and rival deterrence.

BEHAVIOURAL NOTES OF Zentrygon goldmani oreas (NELSON, 1912) AND OTHER WILD DOVES AT THE CHUCANTÍ PRIVATE NATURAL RESERVE (CPNR), DARIEN, PANAMA

Tecnociencia, 2023
The province of Darien in eastern Panama is well known for its endemic doves.  Most of them are poorly studied and threatened. The aim of this study was to recognize the wild dove’s diversity from CPNR and describe an ethological baseline.

Detection of wind turbines rotary motion by birds: A matter of speed and contrast

Conservation Science and Practice, 2023
To reduce bird collisions on wind turbines, Automatic Detection Systems have been developed to locate approaching birds and trigger turbines to slowdown to 2–3 rotations per minute (rpm). However, it is unknown whether birds can detect this reduced speed

Diversity and prevalence of endoparasites in wild and feral Columbidae across urban and natural habitats

Parasitology
Pigeons and doves (Columbidae: Columbiformes) commonly inhabit urban and natural environments, where their close association with humans, domestic animals and wildlife facilitates environmental contamination and the transmission of parasitic infections ...

Breeding and multiple waves of primary molt in common ground doves of coastal Sinaloa [PDF]

PeerJ, 2018
For adult Common Ground Doves from Sinaloa we demonstrate that the primaries are a single molt series, which sometimes feature two (in one case three) waves of feather replacement. Such stepwise primary replacement is found in many large birds but, at 40

A new flow chip in combination with multiphoton microscopy as a protocol for longitudinal 3D imaging of tissue calcification under shear stress

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Miniaturized flow chip platform enabling continuous perfusion and longitudinal multiphoton 3D imaging of vascular smooth muscle cell constructs under physiological flow. Brightfield imaging guides region selection, while CellTracker Green and mRuby‐labeled fetuin‐A visualize cells and mineral deposition, respectively. Magnesium supplementation markedly
