Measurement ofDrosophilaReproductive Behaviors
Cold Spring Harbor Protocols, 2023Courtship behaviors inDrosophila melanogasterare innate and contain highly stereotyped but also experience- and state-dependent elements. They have been the subject of intense study for more than 100 years. The power ofDrosophilaas a genetic experimental system has allowed the dissection of reproductive behaviors at a molecular, cellular, and ...

Nutrition, reproduction, and behavior
2002Publisher Summary The relationship between nutrition and reproduction is demonstrated in species from every mammalian order, including primates. Successful pregnancy and lactation require tremendous amounts of energy. Ovulatory cycles, mating behavior, steroidogenesis, and lactation are inhibited by caloric restriction, especially in small mammals ...

Household crowding and reproductive behavior
Biodemography and Social Biology, 1992Ethological studies suggest that animal populations that live in crowded conditions display a number of behaviors that tend to limit the size of the population, such as aberrant forms of sexual behavior, small litter sizes, a higher incidence of spontaneous abortion, ineffectual maternal care, and even cannibalism of their young.

Reproductive behavior in behavioral pharmacology
1993Publisher Summary This chapter discusses reproductive behavior in behavioral pharmacology. Increasing attention has been given to species-typical behavior patterns in pharmacological research. These response patterns, evolved under the influence of the ecological factors producing the species, are intimately tied to the morphological and ...

Reproductive behavior of small animals
Theriogenology, 2005Normal and abnormal reproductive behavior of dogs and cats, and known and proposed hormonal bases for these behaviors are addressed. Emerging information includes use of oxytocin to promote pair-bonding between dam and offspring and the possible effect of prolactin in inhibiting sexual behaviors.

Reproductive Behavior of the Stallion
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Equine Practice, 1986The reproductive behavior of semi-wild and feral horses is described briefly in order to provide a background on the reproductive patterns and the specific behavioral elements comprising courtship and mating in the horse. The reproductive behavior of the domestic stallion is discussed at length as are various breeding conditions and normal breeding ...

Reproductive Behavior in Varecia variegat a
Folia Primatologica, 1982Reproductive behavior, sexual behavior, and aggression related to mating were observed in several different groups of captive lemurs (Varecia variegata ) during a period of four breeding seasons. Vaginal smears were taken regularly from all subadult and adult females throughout their reproductive cycles.
