Innate and learned components of egg recognition in the ant Camponotus floridanus
Royal Society Open ScienceInsect societies discriminate against foreigners to avoid exploitation. In ants, helper workers only accept individuals with the familiar chemical cues of their colony. Similarly, unfamiliar eggs may get rejected at their first appearance in the nest. We

Female Zebra Finches Smell Their Eggs.
PLoS ONE, 2016 Parental investment in unrelated offspring seems maladaptive from an evolutionary perspective, due to the costs of energy and resources that cannot be invested in related offspring at the same time.

Shaking Youngsters and Shaken Adults: Female Beetles Eavesdrop on Larval Seed Vibrations to Make Egg-Laying Decisions. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Egg-laying decisions are critical for insects, and particularly those competing for limited resources. Sensory information used by females to mediate egg-laying decisions has been reported to be primarily chemical, but the role of vibration has received ...

Artificial neural networks as models of stimulus control [PDF]
, 1998 We evaluate the ability of artificial neural network models (multi-layer perceptrons) to predict stimulus-response relationships. A variety of empirical results are considered, such as generalization, peak-shift (supernormality) and stimulus intensity ...

Molecules, 2022 The difference of nutrient composition between organic eggs and conventional eggs has always been a concern of people. In this study, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) technique combined with multivariate statistical analyses was conducted to identify the metabolite different in egg yolk and egg white in order to reveal the nutritional components ...

Which egg features predict egg rejection responses in American robins? : replicating Rothstein's (1982) study [PDF]
, 2018 Rothstein (Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 11, 1982, 229) was one of the first comprehensive studies to examine how different egg features influence egg rejection behaviors of avian brood parasite-hosts.
