Brain Distribution and Sexually Dimorphic Expression of Amylin in Different Reproductive Stages of the Zebra Finch (Taeniopygia guttata) Suggest Roles of the Neuropeptide in Song Learning and Social Behaviour

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2020
The expression of the recently identified neuropeptide, amylin, is restricted in rodents to the postpartum preoptic area and may play a role in the control of parental behaviours and food intake.

Prevalence of traded bird species in key biodiversity areas

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The use and trade of biodiversity involve tens of thousands of species that are exploited at a range of scales, intensities, and degrees of sustainability. As a result, some are highly threatened. Key biodiversity areas (KBAs) are sites of significance for the persistence of biodiversity identified nationally based on standardized criteria ...

Phylogenomics of the American robin (Turdus migratorius) reveals hidden lineages and introgression

open access: yesJournal of Systematics and Evolution, EarlyView.
Phylogenomic analyses of Turdus migratorius uncover four previously unrecognized lineages, including a divergent Baja California lineage (T. m. confinis). The results reveal complex evolutionary relationships that depart from simple models of continuous divergence, supported by evidence of introgression between the Mexican lineage and its previously ...

Planted grasslands have equivalent or higher arthropod biomass than native grassland important to nesting Sprague's Pipits (Anthus spragueii) early in the breeding season

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Grassland species are declining globally. Sprague's Pipit (Anthus spragueii), a native grassland‐obligate, nests in planted grasslands in some regions. How food resources in planted grassland compare with those in native grassland is important to determine the relative benefits of creating new grassland by seeding cropland with ...

Preschoolers’ Sensitivity to Abstract Relations Among Sets

open access: yesTopics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.
Abstract In two studies, we test preschoolers’ ability to compare abstract relationships across sets. In Experiments 1a−1d, we show that both older (4‐ and 5‐year‐olds) and younger (3‐year‐olds) preschoolers successfully match both monotonic and symmetric relationships in visual patterns and succeed both in direct relational matches and inverted ones ...

Unique songbird communities in mature riparian spruce forest compared with upland forest in southern Yukon

open access: yes, 2020
There has been limited study of songbird communities in different habitats of the lowland boreal forests of southern Yukon, including the mature forest valued for timber harvest.

Synaptic connectivity of sensorimotor circuits for vocal imitation in the songbird

open access: yeseLife
Sensorimotor computations for learning and behavior rely on precise patterns of synaptic connectivity. Yet, we typically lack the synaptic wiring diagrams for long-range connections between sensory and motor circuits in the brain.

The what, which, when, why and who of Off responses in the auditory system

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend In this article, we will first review ‘What’ different mechanisms are involved in the generation of Off responses at the sub‐cortical and cortical level of the auditory system. Then, we evaluate ‘Which’ stimulus properties elicit Off responses at the different levels of the auditory system.
