Does Stakeholder Pressure Promote Green Innovations and Performance of Agribusiness Companies?

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The sustainability of agribusiness companies is guided by multiple, sometimes paradoxical, interests. Green innovation is strategic for sustainable development; however, literature shows inconsistencies regarding its impact on environmental and economic‐financial performance.

The evolution of vocal learning

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2014
Vocal learning, in which animals modify their vocalizations to imitate those of others, has evolved independently in scattered lineages of birds and mammals. Comparative evidence supports two hypotheses for the selective advantages leading to the origin of vocal learning.

Genetic Components of Vocal Learning

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2004
Abstract: Vocal learning is a rare trait. Humans depend on vocal learning to acquire spoken language, but most species that communicate acoustically have an innate repertoire of sounds that they use for information exchange. Among the few non‐human species that also rely on vocal learning, songbirds have provided by far the most information for ...

Vocal learning in birds and humans

Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities Research Reviews, 2003
AbstractVocal learning is the modification of vocal output by reference to auditory information. It allows for the imitation and improvisation of sounds that otherwise would not occur. The emergence of this skill may have been a primary step in the evolution of human language, but vocal learning is not unique to humans.

Selective Vocal Learning in a Sparrow

Science, 1977
Male swamp sparrows learn their songs; they fail to learn songs of the sympatric song sparrow. Syllables from tape recordings of both species of sparrow were spliced into an array of swamp sparrow-like and song sparrow-like temporal patterns. Swamp sparrows learned only those songs made of swamp sparrow syllables.

Cetacean vocal learning and communication

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2014
The cetaceans are one of the few mammalian clades capable of vocal production learning. Evidence for this comes from synchronous changes in song patterns of baleen whales and experimental work on toothed whales in captivity. While baleen whales like many vocal learners use this skill in song displays that are involved in sexual selection, toothed ...
