De Novo Assembly of the Liver Transcriptome of the European Starling, Sturnus vulgaris
The European starling, Sturnus vulgaris, is a prolific and worldwide invasive species that also has served as an important model for avian ecological and invasion research. Although the genome sequence recently has become available, no transcriptome data have been published for this species. Here, we have sequenced and assembled the S. vulgaris liver transcriptome, which will provide a foundati...
متن کاملThe memory of hunger: developmental plasticity of dietary selectivity in the European starling, Sturnus vulgaris
The decision to consume toxic prey is a trade-off between the benefits of obtaining nutrients and the costs of ingesting toxins. This trade-off is affected by current state: animals will consume more toxic prey if they are food deprived. However, whether the trade-off is affected by developmental history is currently unknown. We studied the decision to eat quinine-injected mealworms in adult st...
متن کاملLight-induced Prolongation of Spermatogenesis in the European Starling, Sturnus Vulgaris
The annual testicular cycle of the European Starling, Sturnus uulgaris, follows the general pattern of many photoperiodic avian species of the north temperate zone. That is, the onset of testicular growth is associated with increasing daily photoperiods following the winter solstice. Captive starlings maintained under natural daylengths at 38” N achieve testicular maturation by mid-April, with ...
متن کاملAdjustments In Parental Care By The European Starling (Sturnus Vulgaris): The Effect Of Female Condition
Every organism has a limited amount of energy that can be expended towards growth, personal maintenance, and reproduction. Once an organism has reached sexual maturity, life history theory predicts a trade-off to exist between self-maintenance and investment in offspring. This study examined the extent to which male and female parental care was affected by a decrease in female body condition in...
متن کاملEstimation of Unsteady Aerodynamics in the Wake of a Freely Flying European Starling (Sturnus vulgaris)
Wing flapping is one of the most widespread propulsion methods found in nature; however, the current understanding of the aerodynamics in bird wakes is incomplete. The role of the unsteady motion in the flow and its contribution to the aerodynamics is still an open question. In the current study, the wake of a freely flying European starling has been investigated using long-duration high-speed ...
