The genome of a songbird [PDF]

Nature, 2010
The zebra finch is an important model organism in several fields with unique relevance to human neuroscience. Like other songbirds, the zebra finch communicates through learned vocalizations, an ability otherwise documented only in humans and a few other animals and lacking in the chicken-the only bird with a sequenced genome until now. Here we present

Integrative neural mechanisms for social communication of learned vocal behavior [PDF]

Frontiers in Integrative Neuroscience
Context-sensitive behaviors are crucial for the adaptive success of many organisms. Investigating neural processes that facilitate context-sensitive behavior requires knowledge of the molecular signaling and anatomical brain connectivity within and ...

Categorizing the songbird market through big data and machine learning in the context of Indonesia’s online market

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2022
The songbird trade has been identified as a major threat to wild populations, and the bird market has now expanded to online platforms. The study explored the use of machine learning models as a monitoring framework; developed models for taxa ...

Structural effects of reedbed grazing and its cessation on reed-nesting songbird densities

Avian Research
Reedbeds are crucial breeding habitats for vulnerable songbird species. Irrespective of their protection status, these habitats may be threatened by organic matter accumulation, progressively leading to structural homogenization and habitat succession ...

Habituation in songbirds [PDF]

Neurobiology of Learning and Memory, 2009
Songbirds respond to initial playback of a recorded conspecific song in numerous ways, from changes in gene expression in the brain to changes in overt physical activity. When the same song is presented repeatedly, responses have been observed to habituate at multiple levels: molecular, cellular and organismal.

Relative Importance for Lincoln’s Sparrow (Melospiza lincolnii) Occupancy of Vegetation Type versus Noise Caused by Industrial Development

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Anthropogenic noise can create an acoustic environment detrimental for animals that communicate using acoustic signals. Currently, most studies of noise and wildlife come from traffic noise in cities.

Two subspecies of a songbird migrant optimise departure from a coastal stopover with regard to weather and the route lying ahead

Journal of Avian Biology, 2023
Songbirds on migration spend a greater share of their travelling time at stopover sites in order to rest, recover and refuel compared to actively flying.
